- Build the team as we scale.
Requirements
- 8+ years of progressive experience in technical accounting and/or financial reporting, with deep fluency in US GAAP.

- Capitalized software accounting experience in a SaaS or AI business.

- Working knowledge of Workiva, NetSuite, FloQast, or similar tools - and strong opinions about them.
