This is a hands-on role with significant room to grow as the company and finance team expand.

What You'll Do

• Assist in the monthly, quarterly, and year-end close, including journal entries, account reconciliations, and accruals, ensuring accurate and timely results.
• Prepare and review financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and support management reporting packages for leadership and investors.
• Manage core accounting operations including accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll support, and general ledger integrity.
• Build, document, and improve internal controls, accounting policies, and scalable processes that support a growing business.
• Support budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis, partnering with department leaders to track spend and inform decisions.
• Coordinate the annual audit and tax filings, serving as a key point of contact for external auditors and tax advisors.
• Oversee cash management, including reconciliations, treasury reporting, and cash-flow forecasting.
• Help select, implement, and optimize accounting and finance systems as we scale.
• Ensure compliance with applicable regulatory, tax, and reporting requirements across jurisdictions.

What We're Looking For

• 4-6 years of progressive accounting and finance experience, ideally combining public accounting and in-house/industry experience.
• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field; CPA (or active candidacy) strongly preferred.
• Strong working knowledge of U.S. GAAP and the full-cycle close process.
• Experience owning or heavily contributing to month-end close, financial reporting, and reconciliations.
• Advanced Excel skills and hands-on experience with accounting/ERP systems (e.g., QuickBooks, NetSuite, or similar).
• High attention to detail with strong analytical and problem-solving abilities.
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to partner cross-functionally with non-finance stakeholders.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, high-growth environment and rolling up your sleeves.

Nice to Have

• Experience at a startup, health-tech, manufacturing, or D2C/e-commerce company.
• Exposure to inventory or cost accounting in a physical-product business.
• Experience implementing or upgrading ERP and finance systems.

Salary range

$120,000 - $140,000 per year, plus equity.
