Accounting Manager

The Opportunity

We're hiring an Accounting Manager to own day-to-day accounting operations and monthly close for our SaaS business, with guidance from a fractional finance leader. You'll manage AP/AR, maintain GAAP-accurate financials in QuickBooks, and oversee revenue recognition by partnering with our rev-rec automation vendors - ensuring Stripe billing activity is correctly reflected in revenue, deferred revenue, and cash.

This is a hands-on role focused on building clean, repeatable processes, improving reporting and forecasting visibility, and strengthening controls as we scale - a career-defining opportunity to build a world-class finance backbone and grow your scope and seniority alongside the company.

What You'll Own

• Accounting & close. Own monthly, quarterly, and year-end close - journal entries, accruals, reconciliations, and financial statement preparation - and maintain accurate GAAP financials (P&L, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow) and supporting schedules.
• AP/AR operations. Run Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable end-to-end, including vendor onboarding, approvals, payment runs, invoicing, collections, and aging management.
• Stripe, billing, and data integrity. Maintain a strong operational understanding of Stripe activity and ensure it flows correctly into accounting systems and reconciles cleanly during close.
• Revenue recognition (SaaS / ASC 606). Own revenue recognition, including performance obligation assessment and treatment of discounts and multi-year agreements, while managing rev-rec automation tools and vendors and reviewing outputs for accuracy.
• Reporting & forecasting. Build forecasting models and reporting rhythms that give leadership clear visibility into cash, runway, and operating performance, with variance explanations rather than just numbers.
• Controls & compliance. Build and improve internal controls, approval workflows, and accounting policies as the company grows, and coordinate with external partners (CPA firm, tax, payroll, audit support) to stay audit-ready.

What We're Looking For

• Builder's Mindset. You thrive in fast-moving environments and like building structure out of chaos.
• Dual Fluency. You're equally comfortable in Stripe billing flows as you are explaining GAAP outcomes to leadership.
• Obsessive About Clean Data. You default to "what's the source of truth?" and "how do we make this auditable?"
• Systems Thinking. You build processes that reduce surprises - clean close, clear revenue schedules, predictable cash visibility.
• High Ownership. You're hands-on and want to grow your scope as the organization scales.

Required Qualifications

• 5+ years of progressive accounting experience, ideally in SaaS or recurring-revenue businesses.
• Deep understanding of GAAP-based accounting for SaaS, including revenue recognition (ASC 606).
• Direct ownership of AP and AR operations, including invoicing, collections, and vendor management.
• Strong working knowledge of Stripe (payments, refunds, disputes, fees, payouts) and how it ties to financial reporting.
• Strong QuickBooks experience (QuickBooks Online preferred) with full GL ownership.
• Experience managing revenue recognition automation tools/vendors and validating outputs for accuracy.
• Strong forecasting skills, including cash forecasting and burn/runway visibility.
• Advanced Excel and Google Sheets capabilities (models, schedules, reconciliations, roll-forwards).

Preferred Qualifications

• CPA and/or public accounting background.
• Experience improving or implementing billing and finance automation workflows.
• Experience preparing for or supporting audits, SOC 2 evidence requests, and enterprise customer financial due diligence.
• Experience scaling finance at a high-growth startup (e.g., $3M > $10M+).

Base salary

$90,000-$130,000 annually, plus a performance-based bonus. Final compensation will be based on experience, seniority, and fit with the scope of the role.

We offer competitive compensation, performance-based incentives, healthcare coverage, and flexible time off.
