Full Job Description
About the Role

As one of the first hires on Suno's accounting team you'll be a true generalist, the person who can pick up whatever the close, the auditors, or the business throws your way and run with it. Reporting to the Director of Accounting, you'll own meaningful pieces of the monthly close, help carry the company through its first-year audit and toward IPO readiness, and bring a measured, meaningful approach to AI that unlocks the efficiency expected of a best-in-class team. We're looking for a doer who wants to build: someone who'll set up a process, document it, operate it, and then automate it. If you want broad exposure and the chance to shape how a fast-growing AI company does its accounting, this is the seat.
