You’re comfortable operating in ambiguity, enjoy owning complex decisions, and know how to move from technical detail to strategic clarity. More than that, we believe you will bring: * 10+ years of progressive accounting experience, including significant technical accounting and financial reporting leadership * Experience from a technology and/or scale-up start-up environment * Deep expertise in U.S. GAAP and hands-on experience preparing and reviewing audited financial statements and disclosures * Proven experience leading external audits and delivering high-quality, audit-ready reporting in high-growth environments * Experience supporting public-company readiness, SEC reporting, or operating within a SOX-compliant environment * Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain complex accounting topics to senior leaders and non-technical partners * A high degree of ownership, accountability, and comfort leading through change * CPA required NICE TO HAVE While not required, we think this role could be an especially strong fit if you’ve helped scale accounting and reporting functions through periods of rapid growth or major financial milestones.
