The Technical Accounting Lead is a critical role within the Global Financial Reporting & Compliance team of Keysight. This role is best suited for those individuals who are ready to own technical accounting positions and drive outcomes in a public-company environment. You will partner closely with Corporate Finance and key stakeholders to evaluate complex transactions, write and socialize position memos, support SEC reporting, and help the company adopt new standards in a scalable, audit-ready way. You will also lead technical accounting workstreams for M&A (due diligence through purchase accounting and integration), coordinating with third-party valuation specialists and cross-functional partners. The role offers broad exposure across accounting policy, complex judgments, external auditor alignment, and deal activity. The position reports to the Accounting Policies and M&A Manager and interacts regularly with the Corporate Finance organization and external auditors.
  • Own technical accounting conclusions for complex and judgmental areas and document positions in clear, audit-ready memos
  • Partner with Corporate Finance, Legal, FP&A, and business leaders to enable transactions and reduce late-cycle surprises
  • Support SEC reporting/disclosures and drive adoption of new accounting standards across processes and controls
  • Lead purchase accounting (ASC 805) and coordinate with valuation specialists on fair value and purchase price allocation
  • Serve as a primary technical contact for external auditors on complex positions and policy implementation

Why this role:
  • End-to-end ownership from conclusion to implementation, controls, and disclosures

  • Lead technical accounting research for complex, routine, and non-routine transactions; draft, review, and socialize conclusion memos/position papers with stakeholders
  • Serve as a primary technical accounting liaison for external auditors; drive early alignment on key judgments to avoid late-cycle issues
  • Lead purchase accounting under ASC 805, including coordinating with third-party valuation specialists on fair value and purchase price allocation and supporting integration accounting considerations
  • Monitor FASB/SEC developments and lead adoption of new ASUs, including impact assessments, implementation plans, and stakeholder training
  • Partner cross-functionally (Controllership, Financial Operations, Information Systems, and Business Unit Finance) to implement standards and transaction accounting, translating guidance into practical processes and controls
  • Lead special projects and workstreams with clear milestones, stakeholders, and deliverables (memos, playbooks, process improvements); manage timelines and drive closure
  • Ensure accounting policy, SEC reporting, and deal-related processes operate within an effective SOX control environment; maintain clear documentation and support testing
  • Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives across technical accounting, reporting, and compliance as priorities evolve

Qualifications
Working model / expectations: Limited travel as needed for acquisitions; periodic peaks around quarter-end/annual reporting.
  • CPA required
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting
  • 8+ years of progressive experience, ideally Big 4 audit and/or accounting advisory
  • Experience with performing complex accounting research and technical activities within a large multi-national company, synthesizing information, formulating conclusions and documenting thorough, concise technical accounting memoranda/position papers
  • Experience supporting SEC registrant reporting and disclosures (10-K/10-Q) and partnering with external auditors on technical positions
  • Strong command of U.S. GAAP and ability to apply judgment in complex areas (e.g., ASC 805, revenue, leases, equity/stock compensation, impairment)-and clearly explain conclusions
  • Excellent oral and written communication skills
  • Exhibit intuition and awareness to seek clarification as needed to deliver results
  • Strong problem-solving skills
  • Excellent analytical and interpersonal skills
  • Ability to interact with various levels of finance personnel and can explain complex accounting in succinct manner; a good listener
