Accounts Receivable Accountant

Own the revenue & AR engine of a scaling energy-tech company, where clean accounting directly enables growth, trust, and Series-B-readiness. You will own the processes that turn complex energy billing, variable pricing, and multiple billing cadences into clean, auditable numbers.

What you'll do

• Apply and maintain revenue recognition policies (HGB today, IFRS 15 on the horizon) across trawa's customer and contract types
• Translate commercial terms (variable pricing, multi-element arrangements, energy-specific structures) into the right accounting treatment
• Own and reconcile deferred revenue and energy accrual schedules
• Co-own a defined scope of the invoicing process end-to-end, from creation through reconciliation
• Drive AR reconciliations and aging; own dunning and collections
• Own revenue-related close activities: journal entries, account reconciliations, variance commentary
• Maintain audit-ready workpapers and documentation for all revenue and AR positions
• Contribute to billing tool rollout and ERP selection as the revenue voice

What you'll need

• 3-5 years in accounting, with meaningful exposure to complex revenue accounting, AR, or billing, ideally in a B2B SaaS, energy, or tech-enabled business
• Solid accounting fundamentals with hands-on experience in IFRS 15 or HGB revenue recognition in a contract-heavy environment, comfortable with deferred revenue and month-end close
• Ownership mindset: you don't wait to be told what's broken, you find it, fix it, and document it
• Analytical and data-curious: comfortable with large datasets, spotting anomalies, forming a hypothesis and testing it against the data
• Structured and detail-oriented: your reconciliations are clean, your documentation holds up under audit scrutiny
• Proficient in Excel / Google Sheets
• Business fluent in German and English

Nice to have

• AI-first mindset: hands-on with tools like Langdock, Claude, ChatGPT, or n8n
• SQL or Python basics to query billing and energy data directly
• Experience with DATEV, Moss, Airtable, or ERP implementations
