    Description

    We are a fast-growing, high-tech manufacturing company building complex equipment at scale through a global network of contract manufacturers. As we transition from early-stage build to scaled production, we are seeking a Global Cost Controller to build and own our cost accounting and inventory management foundation.

    This role will be responsible for establishing disciplined, scalable cost structures across high-volume manufacturing, managing inventory valuation and controls, and delivering clear, actionable visibility into product costs across a complex global supply chain. The ideal candidate is comfortable operating in ambiguity, rolling up their sleeves, and building systems and processes from the ground up.

    Key Responsibilities

    • Cost Accounting & Manufacturing Economics
    • Build and own the global cost accounting framework for high-volume equipment manufacturing, including standard costing, variance analysis, and margin tracking.
    • Establish product-level cost models across materials, labor, overhead, and subcontracted manufacturing.
    • Analyze and explain cost variances (PPV, usage, yield, labor, overhead absorption) and partner with Operations and Supply Chain to drive root-cause resolution.
    • Support pricing, margin analysis, and make-vs-buy decisions with accurate and defensible cost data.

    Inventory & Supply Chain Controls

    • Design and oversee global inventory accounting, valuation, and controls across internal operations and contract manufacturers.
    • Implement policies for inventory capitalization, reserves, excess and obsolete inventory, and cycle counting.
    • Ensure accurate tracking of WIP, finished goods, consigned inventory, and inventory held at third-party manufacturers.
    • Partner closely with Supply Chain and Manufacturing to manage high PO volume, complex BOMs, and long lead-time components.

    Systems, Process & Scale

    • Lead cost accounting and inventory setup within ERP and related systems (new implementations or enhancements as the company scales).
    • Define scalable processes for BOM maintenance, routing accuracy, standard cost updates, and month-end close.
    • Build reporting and dashboards to provide leadership with clear visibility into unit economics, inventory exposure, and production efficiency.
    • Establish internal controls aligned with defense and government contracting requirements.

    Cross-Functional Partnership

    • Act as the primary finance partner to Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Engineering, and Program Management.
    • Support audits, compliance reviews, and documentation requirements related to inventory and cost accounting.
    • Collaborate with FP&A on forecasting, budgeting, and production volume assumptions, ensuring alignment with cost reality.

    Qualifications

    • 10+ years of experience in cost accounting, manufacturing finance, or inventory accounting within hardware, industrial, aerospace, defense, or high-tech manufacturing environments.
    • Deep experience with high-volume manufacturing and complex supply chains, including contract manufacturers.
    • Strong knowledge of standard costing, inventory accounting, and manufacturing variance analysis.
    • Hands-on ERP experience (strong preference for Odoo); comfort building processes rather than inheriting them.
    • Ability to operate as an individual contributor in a build-out phase, with the opportunity to scale a team over time.
    • Experience in regulated environments (defense, aerospace, government contracting) strongly preferred.
