Required Qualifications ● Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field. ● 2–5 years of cost accounting experience in a manufacturing environment; experience in electronics, battery/energy storage, aerospace, or similar precision manufacturing is preferred. ● Direct, hands-on experience costing a large-scale, fully integrated, high-volume automated production line that moves product through multiple connected stages, such as cell manufacturing, electronics assembly, or comparable continuous-flow production. ● Hands-on experience with standard costing, BOM- and routing-based cost structures, and inventory valuation within an ERP system such as NetSuite, SAP, Epicor, or a comparable MRP/ERP platform. ● Proven ability to analyze manufacturing variances and clearly communicate root causes to operations-focused, non-financial stakeholders. ●Advanced Microsoft Excel skills (including Pivot Tables, XLOOKUP/VLOOKUP, formulas, data analysis), including the ability to build cost models and reconciliations using transactional ERP data. ● Solid understanding of GAAP, manufacturing accounting, and cost accounting principles. ● Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and organizational skills, with the ability to explain complex financial information clearly to non-financial audiences. ● Ability to work regularly on the production floor with operators, supervisors, and engineers; this role requires active engagement with manufacturing operations. *Preferred Qualifications* ● Prior experience in an AS9100 or ISO 9001 certified manufacturing environment. ● Exposure to government/DoD contract accounting requirements (FAR, CAS, DCAA-type cost accounting expectations). ● CMA, CPA, or progress toward certification. ● Experience with ERP systems and inventory management software. ● Experience with standard costing, variance analysis, inventory controls, and profitability analysis. *Work Environment* This role divides time between an office/finance setting and ALE’s manufacturing floor.
