Job Description

We’re looking for a Finance professional who can jump in quickly to accelerate our integration into Amazon’s financial process. This will require a combination of new business process development, optimization, automation and transition. The first month of the job will be heavily process focused which will enable an in-depth understanding of RIVRs technology and business as well as Amazon.
