Full Job Description
The Accounting Team
  • **Examples of key problems the team is working on**
  • - Build the financial infrastructure from the ground up (NetSuite, Zip, Shareworks, Pigment).
  • - Stand up a lean finance org for the fastest-growing data center hyperscaler.
  • - Own the full stack from vendor invoice to cap table.
Role Scope
  • - Own technical accounting positions across revenue recognition, leases, project finance, and equity, writing the memos that document how the company accounts for first-of-a-kind data center transactions.
  • - Run the financial reporting close and produce accurate financial statements on a fast cycle as the company scales toward audit and public-company readiness.
  • - Stand up technical accounting policies and controls from the ground up on a lean finance stack (NetSuite, Zip, Shareworks, Pigment).
  • - Manage the external audit relationship, preparing the support and positions that let auditors sign off without surprises.
  • - Partner with strategic finance, legal, and commercial teams to structure and account for complex, high-value transactions correctly the first time.
What We're Looking For
  • **The below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people, so if you don't fit this role exactly, tell us where you would.**
  • - You've written technical accounting memos on complex areas such as revenue recognition, leases, business combinations, or equity, and they held up under audit scrutiny.
  • - You've owned a financial reporting close and produced GAAP financial statements on a demanding timeline.
  • - You've built accounting policies, processes, or controls from scratch rather than maintaining a mature function.
  • - You've managed external auditors through a full audit and resolved contentious positions without the timeline blowing up.
  • - You've worked through the accounting for genuinely novel or complex transactions where the precedent was thin.
  • - You explain technical accounting conclusions clearly enough that non-accountants can act on them.
  • - Bonus: CPA. Big Four technical accounting or national-office background. Capital-intensive industry experience (data centers, energy, real estate, infrastructure). NetSuite or comparable ERP implementation. Pre-IPO or audit-readiness experience.


We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
