• Prepare and review monthly, quarterly, and annual financial statements in accordance with GAAP

• Lead security awareness efforts for the accounting team, including recognition of phishing, vishing, and other social engineering tactics targeting financial systems and banking credentials
• Ensure compliance with government contracting requirements, including FAR/DFARS cost principles, DCAA audit readiness, and incurred cost submissions (if applicable)
• Support accounting and billing for contract types including firm-fixed-price (FFP), time-and-materials (T&M), cost-reimbursement, and related federal contract structures
• Monitor contract funding, expenditures, burn rates, and funded backlog
• Manage cash flow, banking relationships, and treasury functions
• Coordinate and manage annual external audits and tax filings
• Supervise, mentor, and develop accounting staff
• Support budgeting, forecasting, and financial planning processes
