Hi there!
We’re looking for an experienced Accounting Manager to serve as our end-to-end owner of equity accounting — ensuring accurate accounting for stock-based compensation, modifications, secondary transactions, and other complex equity events under US GAAP.
This role will also support our broader technical accounting needs by researching and implementing new accounting standards, supporting the annual audit, and rolling up your sleeves to assist with key areas of the monthly close, including fixed assets, intangible assets, and other general ledger areas.
In this role, you’ll partner closely with Julia Munoz, Controller, to ensure our Accounting team remains GAAP compliant, maintains a 5-day close, and continues building forward-thinking automation solutions to modernize our processes in the AI era.
This is a unique opportunity for a highly technical individual contributor who thrives without direct people management responsibilities and wants to drive meaningful change through automation, systems improvements, and strong technical accounting leadership.
