The Staff Accountant will help operate and scale the accounting function, managing day-to-day accounting activities while improving processes and maintaining accurate, timely, audit-ready records.
Responsibilities
- **Own the full accounting engine.** General accounting, AP/AR, payroll, sales tax, journal entries, reconciliations, monthly close. You'll be the one running it day to day, working alongside Alison to keep everything accurate, on time, and audit-ready. Whether it's reviewing credit card charges in Ramp, processing payroll for our team, preparing JEs to close out the month, or catching the small details in a reconciliation
- **Bring a critical eye and a startup mentality.** You won't just execute the process, you'll question it. Where something's manual, clunky, or "we've just always done it this way," you'll speak up and help us fix it, including finding smarter ways to leverage AI. You're comfortable with ambiguity and ready to build the better version yourself instead of waiting to be told how
Skills
- 4+ years in accounting. You've done the reps: journal entries, reconciliations, close process, and you know what good looks like because you've built it before
- Broad, generalist accounting experience rather than one narrow lane. You've touched the full function, not just a slice of it
- A startup mentality (comfortable with ambiguity, ready to build the process rather than just follow it) is a must-have
- Familiarity with GL systems (we use QuickBooks), AP automation tools like Ramp or Brex, and payroll platforms like Rippling. Direct experience with our exact stack isn't required
- You ask good questions and you're not afraid to be wrong. You self-review before anyone has to ask, and you're comfortable saying "I think we should look at this differently"
- Comfortable partnering cross-functionally, from employees using Ramp to customers on the AR side, more than comfortable presenting to a room
- Public accounting background is a big plus. If you've sat on the audit side, you already know how to question assumptions and hold your own work to a high bar
- Payroll processing experience is a nice-to-have, not a must-have
- SaaS or fintech experience is a great and will help you learn the lingo quickly
- Startup experience is a nice-to-have, but a startup mentality (comfortable with ambiguity, ready to build the process rather than just follow it) is a must-have
