Full Job Description
About the role

This is a high-ownership role for an accountant who wants to operate well above the staff level without waiting for a title to do it. As a Senior Accountant at Range, you'll own the mechanics of our monthly close and our AP, AR, and payroll operations end-to-end, partner with the Controller on technical accounting, and help build the AI-powered automation that lets a small finance team move like a much larger one. You'll have real scope, real autonomy, and work that lands in front of leadership and the board.

We're excited to hire this role at Range's Headquarters in McLean, VA. All of our positions follow an in-office schedule Monday through Friday, allowing you to collaborate directly with your team. If you're not currently based in one of these areas but love what you see, let's discuss relocation as part of your journey to joining us.

What you'll do with us
  • Own the mechanics of the monthly close end to end: journal entries, accruals, and reconciliations through to a clean, on-time trial balance, with the Controller reviewing and signing off
  • Own AP, AR, and payroll operations end to end, including vendor onboarding, coding, and approval routing; the billing-to-cash reconciliation; and payroll booking, accruals, and allocations
  • Drive day-to-day revenue recognition under ASC 606, covering revenue, variable consideration, and contract modifications, while partnering with the Controller on technical positions for non-routine transactions
  • Prepare the income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow statement, with reconciliations and variance analysis that feed reporting to leadership and the board
  • Partner with the Controller and VP of Finance to build and maintain the AI-driven automations (Claude Cowork, MCP integrations) that power our recurring accounting workflows, turning manual processes into reliable, auditable, code-verified ones
  • Play a hands-on role in our ERP migration, supporting system selection, data migration, and the integration of our finance tools into the new platform, and help build the systems and controls


What will set you apart
  • 4+ years of progressive accounting experience, ideally blending public accounting (Big 4 or similar) with in-house or startup experience
  • Active CPA license strongly preferred
  • Strong command of US GAAP, with hands-on ASC 606 revenue recognition experience
  • A builder's mindset: you reach for automation and code-verified work over manual spreadsheets and inline arithmetic, and familiarity with AI tooling, SQL, or light scripting is a plus
  • Demonstrated ability to own the mechanics of a monthly close and run AP/AR and payroll cleanly with minimal oversight
  • High standards for accuracy, with a reconcile-and-verify-everything instinct and the discipline to document a position so others can follow it
  • Resourceful and self-directed, able to independently research technical accounting questions and ambiguous issues, reach a defensible answer, and know when to escalate
  • Experience in financial services is a strong plus. Wealth and asset management or registered investment advisor (RIA) experience is preferred above all others
  • Familiarity with Stripe and Ramp is a plus
  • Strong ownership mindset: proactive, comfortable with ambiguity, and biased toward action


Even if you don't check every box, we'd still love to hear from you. If you're a strong accountant who's excited about this role, we encourage you to apply.

Benefits
  • Health & Wellness: 100% employer-covered medical insurance for employees (75% for dependents), plus dental and vision coverage
  • 401(k): Retirement savings program to support your future
  • Paid Time Off: Dedicated time to reset and recharge plus most federal holidays
  • Parental Leave: Comprehensive leave policy for growing families
  • Meals: Select meals covered throughout the week
  • Fitness: Monthly movement stipend
  • Equity & Career Growth: Early exercise eligibility and a strong focus on professional development
  • Full access to cutting-edge AI tools: We cover the cost so you can experiment, build, and move faster
  • Annual Compensation Reviews: Salary and equity refreshes based on performance
  • Boomerang Program: After two years at Range, you can take time away to start your own company. We'll hold your spot for 6 months - and pause your equity vesting, which resumes if you return
