Job description
About the Role
We're looking for an experienced Accounting Manager to help us keep our financial house in order as we scale. You'll own the day-to-day accounting operations, lead month-end close, and make sure our books are accurate, timely, and audit-ready. This is a great fit for someone who enjoys building process, mentoring a small team, and working cross-functionally with a fast-moving finance org.
Key Responsibilities
  • Own the monthly, quarterly, and annual close process, ensuring accuracy and timeliness across all ledgers

  • Manage and mentor a small team of staff accountants, providing guidance on daily transactions and technical accounting questions

  • Prepare and review journal entries, account reconciliations, and financial statements in accordance with GAAP

  • Maintain and strengthen internal controls, accounting policies, and documentation

  • Partner with FP&A on budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis

  • Support external audits and tax filings, working directly with outside auditors and tax advisors

  • Oversee accounts payable, accounts receivable, and payroll accounting processes

  • Identify opportunities to improve accounting workflows and systems as the company scales

  • Ensure compliance with revenue recognition standards, particularly for SaaS and subscription-based revenue

  • Requirements
  • 7+ years of progressive accounting experience, including experience managing or mentoring others

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field

  • CPA preferred, not required

  • Strong working knowledge of GAAP and month-end close processes

  • Experience with modern accounting software (e.g., NetSuite (preferred), Quickbooks, or similar ERP systems, Ramp, Brex, Salesforce)

  • Experience in a high-growth SaaS or technology company a plus

  • Excellent attention to detail and a genuine interest in building clean, scalable processes

  • Strong communication skills — you can explain the numbers clearly to non-finance stakeholders

  • A collaborative mindset and comfort working in a fast-paced, evolving environment
