About The Role

We are looking for a sharp, self-directed Accounting Manager to join our Finance & Accounting team on a full-time, permanent basis. In this role, you will own the day-to-day accounting function end-to-end — from close sequencing and balance sheet integrity to process improvement and systems optimization. You will operate with a high degree of independence, and will be a critical force multiplier for a lean, automation-first accounting team.

This is not a role for someone who needs direction on what to do next. It's a role for someone who sees what needs to happen, makes it happen, and makes it better along the way. 

This is a hybrid role out of our San Francisco office — currently three days per week, with the expectation that in-office time may evolve.

The Day to Day

  • Own and manage the monthly close process end-to-end, including sequencing, prioritization, and on-time delivery
  • Leverage AI tools responsibly to improve efficiency, accelerate close activities, and reduce manual effort — staying current on emerging tools relevant to accounting and finance
  • Prepare and review journal entries, account reconciliations, and supporting workpapers across all balance sheet accounts
  • Maintain balance sheet integrity — proactively identify and resolve discrepancies before they become close issues
  • Own prepaid expense schedules, fixed asset register, accruals, and other recurring close activities
  • Oversee accounts payable operations, including invoice processing, vendor management, payment runs, and coding accuracy
  • Manage cash recording and reconciliation across operating and ancillary accounts.
  • Partner on revenue recognition processes and support automation
  • Drive process documentation — identify gaps, build repeatable workflows, and leave things better than you found them
  • Support systems implementation work, including ongoing ERP buildout and optimization
  • Identify opportunities to automate manual processes and reduce close cycle time
  • Serve as a key internal resource for finance and cross-functional partners on accounting questions and vendor matter

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field
  • 6+ years of progressive accounting experience, including ownership of month-end close
  • Strong working knowledge of US GAAP
  • Demonstrated ability to operate independently and manage competing priorities and drive work forward without significant oversight
  • Experience with ERP systems; experience supporting or leading an ERP implementation required
  • Proficiency in Excel and/or Google Sheets, with comfort working in data-driven workflows
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills — comfortable working cross-functionally with both finance and non-finance stakeholders
  • High attention to detail with a preventative, not reactive, approach to accounting operations
  • Comfort operating in a lean, fast-moving environment where ambiguity is normal and resourcefulness is essential

Nice-to-haves

  • CPA
  • Big 4 or large regional public accounting experience
  • Experience in a SaaS or technology company environment
  • Familiarity with Bill.com, Expensify, or Stripe, or other similar AP and expense tools
  • Exposure to revenue recognition under ASC 606
  • Familiarity with close acceleration methodologies or experience driving a sub-3-day close

Job Perks

  • Job Perks

    • Hybrid work with an office in San Francisco, CA
    • Regular in-person events events to connect and collaborate
    • Competitive salary & equity 
    • Medical, dental, and vision insurance for employees and families
    • Flexible Time Off
    • Company-paid parental, medical and caregiver leave

We also provide paid sick time as required by state and local law. Additional benefits and perks contained in our standard employee benefits package are also offered for this position.

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
