Revenue Accountant

Cursor is rethinking how software gets built. We want the same ambition for how revenue is accounted for: one accountable owner from contract and billing reality → books → controls → reporting → audit, with processes that stay fast as the business changes. You will own that thread, build best-in-class close and controllership deliverables, and use Cursor itself to automate repetitive work, tighten documentation, and move faster with fewer errors.
