We are seeking a Senior Accountant to join our GL Accounting Team. This role is integral to our month-end close process and will take ownership of key technical accounting areas. 

As the Senior Accountant, you will be responsible for maintaining high standards for accuracy and efficiency. You are detail-oriented and process-driven. This is a critical, hands-on role where you will be directly involved in the success of the month-end close process. 

This is a full-time, exempt position based in our Oakland, California office with a hybrid work schedule: in office M/W/Th with the option to work from home Tu/Fr.

Getting started
  • We’re committed to your success and want you to feel like a part of our team! You’ll go through our standard onboarding process, which will integrate you into the company with informative sessions on our product, policies, processes, and team structure and goals.
  • We trust that you’ll bring experience and knowledge that will uplift and uplevel the team, but we don’t expect you to know everything on Day 1. We’re excited to find ways for you to contribute, and will create room for you to learn and grow along the way.

  • Prepare and present monthly flux analysis, providing business context and commentary for your areas of ownership. 
  • Manage intercompany accounting, including generation of monthly cost-plus bills, and intercompany reconciliations. 
  • Drive initiatives to improve processes and build efficiencies in the month-end close to shorten timelines and improve accuracy. 
  • Work closely with management to identify internal control gaps and build/implement solutions. 
  • Play a critical role in supporting annual audits for both US and UK entities. 
  • Be flexible to tackle new accounting tasks or ad-hoc projects as needed. 
About you
  • Experience: You have at least 3 years of experience in an accounting role, with specific expertise in high volume reconciliations.
  • Operational Mindset: You are comfortable executing daily tasks with high accuracy and utilize your prioritization skills to meet deadlines.
  • Detail-Oriented & Proactive: Uphold data integrity by looking beyond the process—proactively identifying, investigating, and resolving irregularities.
  • Process Oriented: You thrive in a process-driven work environment and look for ways to make workflows more efficient.

Pluses

  • You have experience in Google sheets and Microsoft Excel.
  • You have experience working in a startup environment.
