This is a hands-on role covering both accounts payable and accounts receivable, with exposure to US-China cross-border financial operations. You'll work closely with our Head of Finance and take real ownership of your book of work — not just processing transactions, but helping us build clean, reliable financial processes as we scale.

• Calculate and review sales commissions based on approved incentive plans; participate in incentive-plan improvement discussions and provide channel ROI analysis with actionable recommendations

Tax, Compliance, Payroll, and External Partners

• Act as the internal finance point of contact for external US CPA/tax advisors; organize clean financial data and support federal, state, local, income tax, and sales tax filings
• Monitor relevant US federal, state, and local finance/tax compliance requirements and flag risks or optimization opportunities to leadership
• Support transfer-pricing review and related cross-border finance documentation in coordination with the China finance team and external advisors
• Partner with HR to review and support US payroll and benefits administration through systems such as Deel, Gusto, or similar platforms, including payroll data review and tax withholding coordination

Finance Process, Internal Controls, and Documentation

• Design and implement practical finance controls for CWILL's stage, including purchase approval workflows, payment authority matrices, reimbursement policies, and documentation standards
• Maintain fixed asset records for the US office and ensure finance records, contracts, invoices, receipts, and key legal documents are properly archived digitally and, where needed, physically
• Identify opportunities to automate, standardize, or simplify finance operations using modern tools such as QuickBooks Online, Xero, Ramp, Brex, Excel, and related systems

Requirements

· Bachelor’s degree or higher in Accounting, Finance, or a related field;

· 0-3 years of hands-on US accounting/finance experience, including full-cycle accounting, close support, AP/AR, reconciliations, tax coordination, and reporting.

· Experience in SaaS, Shopify ecosystem, cross-border e-commerce, technology, or startup environments is preferred.

· Comfort with SaaS revenue and operating metrics such as ARR, MRR, churn, deferred revenue, subscription billing, and investor/auditor expectations.

· Proficiency with QuickBooks Online or Xero; familiarity with modern finance and operations tools such as Ramp, Brex, Deel, Gusto, or similar platforms.
