Direct Meds is a rapidly growing, privately held healthcare company providing technology-enabled telehealth, prescription medication, and pharmacy services directly to consumers. We operate in a dynamic, multi-entity environment with significant transaction volume and continued expansion into new products and services. We re a remote-first company investing heavily in institutional-grade finance, and this role is part of that foundation.

The Technical Accounting Manager supports the accuracy and integrity of Direct Meds  financial reporting and the appropriate application of U.S. GAAP. You will serve as the company s primary technical accounting resource, working closely with the CFO, finance leadership, operating teams, and external auditors. You ll initially report directly to the CFO, then to the VP of Corporate Accounting as that leader is seated, owning technical production end to end within priorities set by finance leadership.

This is a role for someone who wants deep ownership of the technical craft at a company big enough to have real complexity and small enough that your work lands on the CFO s desk unfiltered.

• Provide technical input to our ERP evaluation and implementation
• Partner with our operational accounting team, who own daily transactions and month-end close, so technical positions translate into clean, repeatable entries

• Annual GAAP audit completed on schedule, with technical positions well documented and well supported
• Documented revenue recognition memo set covering all product lines, approved by finance leadership
• Intercompany and consolidation work papers standing up cleanly every month
• Draft accounting policy manual covering the group s core complex areas

• Bachelor s degree in Accounting; CPA strongly preferred
• Approximately 5–8+ years of progressive accounting experience
• Strong knowledge of U.S. GAAP and financial reporting; demonstrated ownership of ASC 606 positions preferred
• Public accounting experience, preferably with a national or Big Four firm, strongly preferred
• Experience with rapidly growing, multi-entity businesses is a plus; healthcare, pharmacy, DTC subscription, or e-commerce exposure is a plus
