NetSuite Accounting Domain Expert at Mercor

NetSuite Accounting Domain Expert | $70-100/hr | Remote | Contract

Use your NetSuite and accounting expertise to evaluate accounting work performed in NetSuite, catching errors in posting, reconciliation, and month-end close.

Who This Role Is For

You must use NetSuite regularly - weekly or more - as a working part of your accounting or finance job, with 3+ years of professional accounting experience including month-end close. Hands-on experience as a NetSuite user or administrator is required; SuiteScript development or implementation-only experience does not qualify on its own.

Required NetSuite Knowledge

• Run a month-end close in NetSuite end to end: accruals, reclasses, the period close checklist, and locking periods
• Reconcile a subledger (AP, AR, bank, inventory) to the general ledger and trace a variance back to the transaction that caused it
• Understand intercompany transactions and eliminations across subsidiaries in NetSuite OneWorld, including currency revaluation and consolidated reporting
• Judge cutoff: which period a transaction belongs in, and when a posted entry needs reversing rather than editing
• Build and read saved searches and reports well enough to verify a number, not just export one

Specialized Depth (2-3 Areas Required)

• Revenue recognition under ASC 606 (Advanced Revenue Management, revenue arrangements and schedules)
• Procure-to-pay: purchase orders, vendor bills, three-way match, approval routing
• Order-to-cash: sales orders, invoicing, customer payments, credit memos, collections
• Inventory and costing (standard vs. average cost, landed cost, inventory adjustments)
• Fixed assets and amortization schedules
• Multi-book or multi-currency accounting
• NetSuite administration: roles and permissions, approval workflows, custom fields

What You'll Do

• Confirm a posted entry, reconciliation, or close step is actually correct in the ledger, not just that a transaction exists
• Catch entries posted to the wrong period, account, subsidiary, or currency, and changes made to records the task never asked to touch
• Judge completeness: did the work account for every related transaction, or stop at the first one
• Distinguish “the system allowed it” from “an accountant would sign off on it”: flag work that posts cleanly but breaks policy or cutoff
• Verify that a request that should be refused (a closed period, a missing approval, a record that does not exist) is refused rather than forced through

Requirements

• Frequent NetSuite use - weekly or more - for accounting work in your current or recent role
• 3+ years of professional accounting experience, including month-end close
• Can spot a misposted entry, an unreconciled variance, or a cutoff error on sight
• CPA (active or inactive) preferred; otherwise a degree in accounting or finance, or equivalent controller-level experience
• Prior data annotation, labeling, or AI evaluation experience is a plus
