As our first Controller, you’ll build on the foundational work the team has already laid out. You’ll have direct insight into company strategy to ensure you have the full context that goes into setting up our accounting infrastructure for the next phase of growth. While you’ll set the direction and own the process, you’ll also be in the details:

• Closing the books
• Working through nuanced recognition questions
• Managing the order-to-cash flow
• Advising on product economics from a financial lens
• Owning cash flow forecasting
• Rolling up your sleeves to get the job done

Qualifications

• Strong understanding of the full order-to-cash lifecycle in a Stripe-based billing environment
• Experience managing or coordinating a debt facility, including covenant compliance and lender reporting
• Multi-state tax compliance experience, including SaaS taxability and indirect tax; comfortable building out international tax capabilities as the business grows
• Comfortable utilizing AI to automate workflows and create leverage and can speak to tangible process improvements
• Have navigated ERP transitions (QBO, Rillet, Campfire, NetSuite, or similar)
• High attention to detail paired with the ability to communicate clearly to non-finance stakeholders
• Comfortable operating in a fast-moving environment where priorities shift and ambiguity is the norm

Requirements

• Own the monthly, quarterly, and annual close process end-to-end with speed, accuracy, and clear documentation
• Prepare and review financial statements, reconciliations, and supporting schedules
• Build and maintain internal controls that scale with the business and hold up under audit scrutiny
• Establish the reporting infrastructure that gives leadership and the board clear, reliable visibility into company financials
• Own vendor COGS tracking and margin analysis across product lines
• Lead the application of ASC 606 across subscription SaaS, AI usage-based revenue, and platform payment revenue streams
• Ensure the accounting treatment for payments economics is clean and defensible
• Partner with GTM, Product, and Engineering to ensure billing architecture and revenue data support clean recognition
• Own the full order-to-cash flow end-to-end
• Own cash flow forecasting and management
• Manage compliance with our debt facility
• Own multi-state income tax compliance
• Lead SaaS taxability analysis and indirect tax obligations
• Coordinate payroll, equity/options processing, billing, AR, AP, and cash management operations
• Evaluate and improve the accounting tech stack to support the complexity and scale ahead
• Drive automation where it creates real leverage and accuracy
