Senior Accountant

Identify and resolve accounting operations issues quickly, bringing structure and clarity to complex or ambiguous workflows.

What we're looking for

• Loves being hands-on with the details while also building systems that make the whole company more reliable.

• Feels excited by the accounting complexity of a fast-growing marketplace, including high transaction volume, money movement, and operational edge cases.

• Enjoys creating order from ambiguity and can move quickly without sacrificing accuracy or judgment.

• Gets motivated by owning the accounting function at an early-stage company where the foundation you build will matter for years.

• Has a high bar for precision, follow-through, and financial integrity, especially when money movement and customer trust are involved.

• Works well with founders and cross-functional teams, translating accounting needs into clear actions and practical processes.

• Brings an operator mindset from a lean finance or accounting team and prefers solving real business problems over adding unnecessary complexity.

Required

• 3+ years of accounting experience, ideally including ownership of accounting operations in a lean or high-growth environment.

• Bachelor’s degree in accounting, finance, or a related field.

• Strong experience with QuickBooks Online and proficiency in Microsoft Excel.

• Strong knowledge of GAAP accrual accounting, including AP, AR, month-end close, reconciliations, and financial statement management.

• Excellent reconciliation skills across multiple bank accounts, payment flows, systems, and vendors.

• Ability to build, document, and improve accounting processes rather than only execute existing ones.

• Strong organizational judgment and follow-through, with the ability to manage multiple accounting workstreams at once.

• Comfort operating in ambiguity and taking ownership in a fast-moving, early-stage environment.

Nice to have

• CPA or CPA-track.

• Experience in marketplaces, fintech, payments, lending, or other transaction-heavy businesses.

• Experience at an early-stage startup or on a finance/accounting team of fewer than five people.

• Experience preparing for audits, diligence requests, or stronger internal controls.

• Experience implementing or improving accounting systems, bill pay tools, payroll workflows, expense management, or close processes.
