In this role, you aren’t just doing the books — you are a vital partner to founders, building robust financial systems from the ground up so they can focus on their products. This is a dynamic, high-variety position where you’ll shift between high-level advisory and essential day-to-day accounting. Must have experience working with multiple clients. Key Responsibilities

• Complex Accounting: Handle specialized startup needs, including revenue recognition (prepaid/deferred), COGS, inventory, and purchase orders.
• Reporting & Compliance: Produce monthly financial reports, year-end tax-ready packages, and manage 1099/W9 support.
• System Building: Create and update Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) to enhance client efficiency and streamline their tech stacks.
• Client Management: Lead regular video meetings to provide financial clarity and act as a trusted point of contact for a diverse portfolio of clients.

Qualifications/Requirements

• Must have experience working with multiple clients
• Experience: 3+ years of accounting experience with a relevant degree (Accounting/Finance/Business) OR 5+ years of experience, ideally within a startup environment.
• Tech Savvy: Expert proficiency in QuickBooks Online, Bill.com, Expensify, Ramp, and the G-Suite. You should be comfortable adopting new AI tools and software.
• Soft Skills: Exceptional interpersonal skills and the ability to “context shift” quickly between different clients and industries.
• Startup Mindset: You are naturally curious, agile, and “scrappy”—ready to jump into the fast-paced, sometimes messy world of emerging companies.

Compensation/Benefits

• Flexibility: A remote-first workplace with a flexible schedule designed to promote work-life balance.
• Health & Security: Medical, dental, and vision insurance for you and your dependents, plus disability insurance.
• Wealth Building: 401(k) plan with a company match.
• Time Off: Flexible PTO—take the time you need when you need it.
• Home Office Support: A generous reimbursement to ensure your home office is productive and comfortable.
