Job Description & How to Apply Below

We're growing fast and expanding product and revenue lines. We’re looking for a hands-on yet strategic Controller to lead our accounting function, support financial infrastructure at scale, and serve as a key partner to the SVP as we move toward investor-grade financial operations.

What You’ll Do

Own and Scale Core Accounting

  • Lead all accounting operations: GL, revenue recognition, AP/AR, payroll, consolidations, and equity accounting.

  • Drive timely and accurate monthly closes and prepare internal and external financial statements under US GAAP.

  • Oversee complex fintech accounting streams, including interchange, deposit interest, SaaS fees, and lending.

  • Design and maintain internal controls for external audits and eventual SOX compliance.

Build Scalable Infrastructure

  • Own and improve our accounting systems; manage third-party integrations

  • Partner with Product and Engineering to automate financial workflows — including revenue data pipelines, ledger mapping, and reconciliations.

  • Ensure audit-traceable processes for high-volume, tech-driven financial data.

Finance Business Partnering

  • Work closely with FP&A to align financial reporting with operating metrics and forecasts.

  • Support board and investor reporting — including gross margin tracking, cost structure analysis, and scenario planning.

  • Lead technical accounting memos for complex arrangements, such as embedded finance, multi-entity structures, or vendor contracts.

Compliance and Audit

  • Lead external audits and coordinate with tax, legal, and compliance teams on filings and regulatory requirements.

  • Prepare for future SOX and public company standards (as applicable).

  • Stay current on evolving fintech regulation and accounting treatments (e.g., ASC 606, Fair value etc.).

What You’ll Bring

  • 10–15 years of accounting/finance experience, including:

    • Public accounting background (Big 4 strongly preferred)

    • Leadership in a high-growth fintech or payments company, ideally Series B-D stage

    • Strong familiarity with product-linked revenue (interchange, lending, deposits, fees)

  • CPA required; deep knowledge of US GAAP and fintech-relevant standards

  • Proven success building accounting teams, processes, and systems in a scale-up environment

  • Ability to collaborate cross-functionally and influence senior stakeholders

  • Systems-oriented: experience with Net Suite, Looker, Ramp, Stripe, Mercury, or similar tools

  • Comfort navigating uncertainty in fast-moving product-led environments

Nice to Have

  • Experience with multi-entity consolidation and international expansion

  • Exposure to SOX, IPO readiness, or public company audit cycles

Compensation:

  • $200,000 - $220,000
