Role Description
As a Director of Technical Accounting, you will drive key initiatives, solve complex challenges, and collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to help our clients scale and succeed. You'll join a company of about 100 people on a mission to deliver everyone a sustainable income: a fast-growing platform building the infrastructure for the next generation of internet entrepreneurs.
-
Serve as the company's technical accounting authority: research, conclude on, and document complex and non-routine transactions under U.S. GAAP, including leases, equity and stock-based compensation, capitalized costs, fixed and intangible assets, impairment, debt and financing arrangements, revenue, and strategic transactions.
-
Own financial-statement disclosures, footnotes, accounting policies, and technical schedules, and monitor new standards for their impact on the company.
-
Act as the primary contact for external auditors on technical matters, keeping positions well supported and audit-ready.
-
Partner with Legal, People, Tax, FP&A, and executive leadership so accounting implications are identified before transactions are finalized.
-
Lead the corporate-accounting close and control environment: reconciliations, account ownership, segregation of duties, approval controls, accruals, and audit evidence across close, procure-to-pay, payroll accounting, and fixed assets.
-
Own the accounting design of a new NetSuite ERP as it is stood up, continuously refining configuration, workflows, data integrity, and reporting so the system scales with the business.
-
Implement AI into individual steps of accounting workflows, with appropriate controls, review, and documentation around each use.
-
Build the policies, process narratives, control matrices, and training that make the function repeatable and ready to scale, and mentor and develop the accounting team.
Qualifications
-
8+ years of progressive accounting experience with a meaningful technical accounting and financial-reporting component. Fintech, SaaS, or another high-growth technology environment is preferred.
-
Deep U.S. GAAP knowledge across leases, equity and stock-based compensation, capitalization, impairment, financing transactions, and revenue.
-
Track record drafting technical accounting memos, preparing disclosures, and working directly with external auditors.
-
Hands-on experience owning or implementing an ERP, ideally NetSuite, and using modern finance tools and automation to improve the close.
-
A track record of proactively using AI tools to refine or create new processes, with demonstrated, significant gains in speed.
-
CPA required or strongly preferred. Big Four or similarly rigorous public-accounting experience is preferred.
-
The judgment to distinguish routine operating decisions from transactions requiring technical analysis, escalation, or auditor consultation.
-
Be technical: your work is correct, grounded in fact, and able to withstand scrutiny.
-
Force function: you solve the root cause and make the system materially better.
-
Disagree then commit: you debate hard before a decision, then execute together with the team.
Requirements
-
Public Company Experience: SOX, IPO readiness, or public-company reporting.
-
Global Accounting: Multi-entity, international, intercompany, or foreign-currency accounting.
-
Technical Exposure: Experience with GitHub.
Benefits
-
High visibility, fast-paced learning, and ownership over real client outcomes.
-
We embrace modern technology, AI workflows, and smart automation internally and externally.
-
Work with a team that values output, creative problem-solving, and work-life harmony.
