The below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people, so if you don’t fit this role exactly, tell us where you would.
• You have 6+ years of accounting experience.
• You use AI tools as a real part of how you work - to move faster on preparation, reconciliations, research, and documentation - with the judgment to know what has to be verified before it touches the books.
• You’ve owned the close and the general ledger in a multi-entity environment, without a controller reviewing every entry first.
• You’ve set a close calendar and held FP&A, Tax, and cross-functional partners to it, instead of chasing them after the fact.
• You know US GAAP well enough to make the accrual, cutoff, and capitalization calls yourself, and to explain them clearly to an auditor.
• You’ve found a broken accounting process midstream and rebuilt it before it slowed down the close.
• You’ve taken accounting areas end-to-end through an external audit and worked directly with auditors, and you keep workpapers and schedules audit-ready year-round.
• You communicate clearly in writing and in person, you can walk a non-finance partner through a variance, push back on a business owner with data, and leave a reviewer with no follow-up questions.
• You’re comfortable in a modern finance stack – Claude, Codex, Snowflake, NetSuite, Ramp and Brex - and fast and accurate in Excel for anything the system can’t handle.
• You run multiple close cycles, audits, and process changes at once without dropping one when another gets hard.
• You hold a bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.
• Bonus: CPA and/or public accounting background; hands-on ERP implementation, migration, or upgrade experience
