Corporate Accountant, Accounting Operations

Responsibilities:

• Serve as a primary preparer across month-end and quarter-end close activities spanning various corporate accounting areas
• Prepare and own balance sheet reconciliations, journal entries, and flux analysis commentary across your portfolio of accounts, that may include leases, fixed assets, prepaid expenses, accruals, and payroll-related accruals
• Prepare and maintain technical accounting memos, documenting conclusions in accordance with US GAAP and ensuring audit-ready support
• Support and operate within the company’s internal controls framework, with a focus on SOX compliance and control documentation
• Identify repetitive, rules-based accounting tasks and build scalable workflows — including leveraging Claude and other tools — to reduce manual effort and increase accuracy
• Collaborate with Technical Accounting on complex transactions, policy development, and application of new or evolving accounting standards
• Support external audit requests and ensure timely delivery of audit-ready schedules and supporting documentation
• Contribute to system implementations and process improvement initiatives as the team and company continue to scale

You may be a good fit if you:

• Hold an active CPA license (required)
• Have 7+ years of accounting experience, preferably in startup or high-growth environments with 2+ years of experience in a public company
• Big 4 Audit background
• Have experience operating across multiple accounting functions (e.g., corporate close, lease accounting, payroll accounting) — comfort with breadth is essential
• Can move between preparer-level execution and technical accounting analysis — writing a technical memo and closing your accruals in the same week should feel familiar
• Have experience working in or building out SOX-compliant control environments
• Are a self-starter who identifies what needs to be done and does it without waiting to be asked
• Communicate clearly and directly with non-accounting partners — you can explain a journal entry to non finance stakeholders
• Are comfortable with ambiguity and can make good decisions with incomplete information

Strong candidates may also:

• Have experience working in a fast-paced startup environment
• Workday financials experience or ERP implementation
• Have the ability to meet deadlines without sacrificing the quality of your work product
• Be comfortable with handling ambiguity and working with minimal supervision
• Take the initiative to apply their knowledge of processes and systems and recommend well-considered improvements
• Exhibit knowledge of how to implement a change and good instinct in predicting its effects, and knowledge of how to “get it right” the first time
• Bring genuine curiosity about how AI tools can eliminate low-value, repetitive work from accounting workflows

Location-based hybrid policy: Currently, we expect all staff to be in one of our offices at least 25% of the time. However, some roles may require more time in our offices.

Visa sponsorship: We do sponsor visas! However, we aren't able to successfully sponsor visas for every role and every candidate. But if we make you an offer, we will make every reasonable effort to get you a visa, and we retain an immigration lawyer to help with this.

We encourage you to apply even if you do not believe you meet every single qualification. Not all strong candidates will meet every single qualification as listed. Research shows that people who identify as being from underrepresented groups are more prone to experiencing imposter syndrome and doubting the strength of their candidacy, so we urge you not to exclude yourself prematurely and to submit an application if you're interested in this work. We think AI systems like the ones we're building have enormous social and ethical implications. We think this makes representation even more important, and we strive to include a range of diverse perspectives on our team.
