About the role
As we build out our internal accounting function, we are hiring an Accounting Manager to serve as its operational anchor - owning full-cycle accounting and establishing the processes and controls needed to support the company at scale.
Reporting to the Controller, the Accounting Manager will lead the monthly close, own the Order to Cash life cycle, and help carry the company through its first financial-statement audit toward audit-ready, repeatable operations. This is a high-ownership role for an experienced accountant who can operate hands-on while building for scale.

Month-end close: Own the end-to-end close, continuously improving cycle time and accuracy while reducing reliance on manual work and external support.
Revenue recognition: Own revenue recognition under ASC 606, deferred revenue, and usage-based billing; reconcile billing systems to the general ledger and resolve variances.
Accounts receivable & collections: Manage collections and DSO and develop the AR function, including coaching junior team members.
Accounts payable: Oversee AP, vendor payments, and expense management, with disciplined approval workflows and clear vendor accountability.
Payroll & equity: Review payroll and support equity and stock-based compensation accounting.
Audit & compliance: Lead audit preparation and the PBC process for the financial-statement and 401(k) audits; support sales-tax and multi-state payroll compliance.
Systems & process: Design scalable, well-documented processes and controls, support the company's ERP migration, and identify and implement automation.
Team leadership: Mentor team members, coordinate with external accounting partners, and grow into leadership of the in-house accounting team.
Qualifications
5-7 years of progressive accounting experience, including full-cycle ownership across order-to-cash, procure-to-pay, and record-to-report.

Proficiency with modern ERP and billing systems and advanced spreadsheet skills.
Experience supporting or preparing for a financial-statement audit.
A track record of building and documenting scalable processes and controls and of automating manual work.
High ownership, strong attention to detail, and the ability to thrive in a lean, fast-paced environment.
