You'll lead us through our first-year audit, build toward IPO readiness, and bring a measured, meaningful approach to AI that unlocks the efficiency and capability a modern accounting team should have. You'll partner closely with FP&A, People, Legal, and the broader business, and you'll set the standard for how we operate, document, and automate as we scale. This is a builder's role for someone who wants to do the work today and grow into a leader as the team grows around them.
