Role Description As part of our growth, we are looking for someone to own the accounting function with technical depth and an AI-native mindset. This role is built for a specialist who is excited to apply AI within finance — someone who brings accounting judgment to a complex SaaS and services revenue model and builds scalable processes. Your mindset is: how do I leverage agents, not people, to achieve exceptional accounting work? What you’ll do: - Close & Financial Reporting: - Drive a close that requires less human effort every cycle. - Own the month-end, quarter-end, and year-end close. - Prepare and present financial statements in accordance with GAAP. - Accounting Operations: - Build and maintain an AI native full-cycle accounting function — AP, AR, GL, payroll, ASC 606 revenue recognition across a hybrid SaaS and services model, and equity and stock-based compensation accounting. - Controls, Compliance & Audit: - Design internal controls and accounting policies that are built into the system, not layered on. - Maintain continuous audit-readiness. - Coordinate external audit and tax engagements including multi-state and sales tax compliance. - Systems & Data Architecture: - Enable better insight and faster decisions. - Partner on the design of accounting data architecture — dimensional structures across departments, products, customers, and business lines. - Continuously evaluate and improve the accounting tooling stack. - Automation & AI: - Deploy and manage AI agents and automation as micro-employees to systematically remove manual work from the function. - Your default question should be: can an agent do this before a person does? Qualifications - AI-first mindset: Ability and desire to fundamentally rethink how accounting work gets done using AI and automation. - CPA required. - 7+ years of progressive accounting experience. - ASC 606 expertise in a SaaS or professional services environment. - Experience designing accounting processes that balance compliance rigor with operational speed. - Strong desire to achieve a zero-day close. Requirements - Public accounting experience. - Startup or high-growth experience within SaaS. - Equity accounting and stock-based compensation in a VC-backed environment, and experience in multi-entity accounting. - Familiarity with modern finance tools (Rillet, Ramp, or similar). Benefits - Salary: $145,000 – $160,000 based on experience. - Equity.
