Block is one company built from many blocks, all united by the same purpose of economic empowerment. The blocks that form our foundational teams — People, Finance, Counsel, Hardware, Information Security, Platform Infrastructure Engineering, and more — provide support and guidance at the corporate level.
We are looking for a strategic and hands-on systems architect to lead the next wave of finance technology transformation at Block. This role will sit at the intersection of Accounting, Tax, Treasury, Procurement, and FP&A technologies, helping design and scale the technology stack that powers the core financial engine of the company.
The ideal candidate brings deep expertise in financial systems architecture, a product-thinking mindset, and the ability to span both strategic planning and execution. You’ll serve as the connective tissue between finance functions and engineering - with a clear vision for the future state of Block’s finance tech stack, optimized for automation, speed, accuracy, and resilience. An AI-first mindset is essential, with demonstrated experience applying AI to financial workflows.
Key Responsibilities
Design and evolve the end-to-end finance systems architecture, spanning Record-to-Report (R2R), Source-to-Pay (S2P), Treasury, Tax, Planning, and Reporting. Drive future-state design by assessing current processes, identifying optimization opportunities, and architecting scalable, automated solutions. Create architectural frameworks that unify accounting, tax, treasury, FP&A, and procurement tech verticals around shared data models, integrations, and workflow automation. Champion an AI-first architecture, embedding AI and ML in areas like reconciliations, flux analysis, anomaly detection, and system self-service. Requirements
15+ years in financial systems architecture or enterprise systems engineering. Deep hands-on experience with Oracle Fusion Finance, Fusion Accounting Hub (FAH), and financial data modeling. Expertise across Revenue (incl. ASC 606), Intercompany, Consolidations, Tax, Treasury, and FP&A. Proven track record designing systems for close acceleration, automation, and finance transformation. Experience working closely with Engineering, Product, Accounting, and Data teams to translate strategy into execution. Demonstrated use of AI platforms (e.g., ChatGPT, Gemini, or internal LLMs) to optimize workflows. We’re working to build a more inclusive economy where our customers have equal access to opportunity, and we strive to live by these same values in building our workplace.
