[Hiring] Senior Accountant @Honeydew

Role Description

As our first in-house Senior Accountant, you are the engine that changes how Honeydew's accounting operates. You'll bring accounting in-house, make the books trustworthy, and provide leadership with current numbers while they can still act on them.

• What You'll Build (Your First 6 Months):
  • Accounting fully in-house: day-to-day ownership of the GL, AP/AR, reconciliations, and close transitioned from our outsourced provider, with the relationship wound down by day 120.
  • Books we can trust: every key balance sheet account (cash, AP, AR, revenue) reconciled and documented, with no unresolved reconciling item older than 30 days by day 90, and kept that way through day 180.
  • Processes that outlast you: SOPs published for the 3–5 highest-priority accounting processes you own, including the close checklist, reconciliations, and revenue recognition, by day 150.
• How You'll Make an Impact:
  • Own the close: record and review journal entries, accruals, and account reconciliations, including payroll and revenue, working toward closing the books by day 5 each month and escalating blockers early.
  • Keep the books clean: maintain the general ledger and AP, manage Brex, investigate discrepancies as they surface, and keep the supporting documentation and internal controls that make the numbers defensible.
  • Put AI to work, with a human check: direct how AI and automation get used in accounting, reviewing reconciliations, reports, and other templates for accuracy before anyone relies on them.
  • Build the function: write and maintain the SOPs and policies for the areas you own, building the processes and controls the finance function needs to scale as Honeydew grows.

Qualifications

• Hands-on ownership of the full close cycle, personally run month-end/year-end close (journal entries, accruals, reconciliations) end-to-end.
• GAAP revenue recognition experience, including recurring/subscription revenue.
• Experience integrating AI/automation tools into accounting workflows.
• Advanced Excel experience.

Requirements

• Experience with systems automations.
• Quickbooks or similar.
• Data Modeling, SQL, Databricks, or similar.

Benefits

• Real Ownership: be the first in-house owner of our accounting.
• Mission-Critical Work: trustworthy numbers, delivered fast, are how leadership makes decisions that keep care accessible.
