  • US Technical Jobs. The position you are applying for will require access to technology that is subject to U.S. export control and government contract restrictions. Employment with IonQ is contingent on either verifying “U.S. Person” (e.g., U.S. citizen, U.S. national, U.S. permanent resident, or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum) status for export controls and government contracts work, obtaining any necessary license, and/or confirming the availability of a license exception under U.S. export controls. Please note that in the absence of confirming you are a U.S. Person for export control and government contracts work purposes, IonQ may choose not to apply for a license or decline to use a license exception (if available) for you to access export-controlled technology that may require authorization, and similarly, you may not qualify for government contracts work that requires U.S. Persons, and IonQ may decline to proceed with your application on those bases alone. Accordingly, we will have some additional questions regarding your immigration status that will be used for export control and compliance purposes, and the answers will be reviewed by compliance personnel to ensure compliance with federal law.
  • US Non-Technical Jobs. Due to applicable export control laws and regulations, candidates must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident (i.e., current Green Card holder), or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum. Accordingly, we will have some additional questions regarding your immigration status that will be used for export control and compliance purposes, and the answers will be reviewed by compliance personnel to ensure compliance with federal law.

Responsibilities

  • Consolidated Close & Reporting
  • Consolidated Close Ownership: Own the end-to-end consolidated close calendar across all IonQ legal entities. This includes running the corporate close call, tracking subsidiary deliverables and dependencies, and escalating issues that put the timeline at risk.
  • Subsidiary Reporting Packages: Set requirements for subsidiary trial balance and reporting packages, then manage their collection and review. Validate completeness, account mapping, and consistency with corporate accounting policies before data is loaded for consolidation.
  • Consolidation Execution: Prepare and review consolidation entries, including top-side adjustments, investment eliminations, and equity roll-forwards. Review the intercompany eliminations prepared by the Intercompany Accounting team to confirm the consolidated balances are complete and fully eliminated.
  • Consolidated Financial Analysis: Prepare consolidated trial balances, financial statements, and flux analyses. Investigate and explain significant movements for leadership, SEC Reporting, and FP&A.
  • Consolidation, Foreign Currency & Acquisitions
  • Foreign Currency Translation: Oversee translation of foreign subsidiary results under ASC 830, including exchange-rate governance, cumulative translation adjustment (CTA) roll-forwards, and related disclosure support.
  • Business Combinations & Integration: Lead the consolidation of newly acquired and newly formed entities. This includes opening balance sheet and purchase accounting entries under ASC 805, chart of accounts mapping, reporting timelines, and onboarding local finance teams to IonQ's close requirements.
  • Chart of Accounts & Mapping Governance: Maintain the consolidated chart of accounts and the mappings from entity ledgers to the consolidation structure. Control changes so reporting stays consistent across entities and periods.
  • External Reporting Support: Supply consolidated schedules and supporting analyses for quarterly and annual SEC filings, earnings materials, and Audit Committee reporting.
  • Process, Systems & Automation
  • Consolidation Systems: Serve as the accounting owner of OneStream consolidation, including workflows, data loads, validations, and consolidation and translation rules. Systems Integration: Support data flows between NetSuite, OneStream, and downstream planning and reporting tools such as Pigment. Make sure the consolidated results reconcile to the source ledgers.
  • Process Design: Build and document scalable consolidation processes, close calendars, and reporting package standards that reduce manual effort and shorten the close.
  • Continuous Improvement: Find the root causes of recurring consolidation adjustments and late or inaccurate submissions, and fix them upstream with entity controllers and shared services.
  • Controls, Audit & Compliance
  • Internal Controls: Design, document, and execute internal controls over the consolidation and financial reporting processes. Remediate control gaps as the control environment grows.
  • Audit Support: Serve as the primary consolidation contact for external auditors. Prepare consolidation schedules, roll-forwards, and supporting documentation (PBC list items) for quarterly reviews and the year-end audit.
  • Technical Accounting: Research and document accounting positions on consolidation, foreign currency, and business combination matters under US GAAP (ASC 805, ASC 810, ASC 830). Monitor policy compliance across entities.
