Accounting Manager
Location: Austin, Texas (US)
About the role
We’re looking for an Accounting Manager to join our Finance team in a role central to architecting our accounting function. Reporting directly to the Head of Finance and Operations, you will play a pivotal role in designing scalable processes, managing complex money movement, and providing actionable insights to drive business performance.
This is not a standard back-office role. You will partner deeply with Product and Engineering to build the financial infrastructure behind our platform, ensuring that our high-volume invoicing, payment operations, and revenue data scale efficiently.
We are looking for a builder who thrives in the intersection of accounting and data - someone capable of managing "funds flow" reconciliations one hour and designing internal controls for new product launches the next. In return, we offer a high-visibility role with direct ownership over critical areas of our operations.
Please note: This is a hybrid position, with up to 3 days per week in our Austin office.
What you'll do
Own core accounting operations and month-end close: Oversee the end-to-end close process, performing fluctuation analysis and managing revenue recognition for multi-stream SaaS models, including recurring subscriptions, usage-based transaction fees, and float income.
Manage complex funds-flow reconciliations: Take ownership of high-volume FBO (For Benefit Of) accounts and employer/member payment flows, ensuring every dollar moving through the platform is accounted for, compliant, and reconciled against bank data.
Partner with Engineering on financial infrastructure: Act as the primary Finance liaison to Product and Engineering to validate data integrity between backend production databases and financial ledgers, ensuring new features launch with accurate billing and reporting logic.
Drive financial systems automation: Lead the transition from manual workflows to automated solutions, serving as the functional owner for our internal tech stack to improve efficiency and scalability as transaction volumes grow.
Build audit-ready controls and reporting: Design and document rigorous internal controls (SOX-lite) and accounting policies to prepare for future audits, while preparing financial reports and board materials.
Support treasury and forecasting: Assist with working capital modeling and platform cash-flow forecasting to ensure operational liquidity.
Background we're looking for
5+ years of accounting experience, ideally a combination of Big Four public accounting and in-house experience at a high-growth SaaS or Fintech company.
Strong technical GAAP knowledge (specifically ASC 606) and a track record of performing detailed reconciliations on large, high-volume transactional datasets.
System savvy: Advanced Excel/Google Sheets skills are required; experience with SQL, BI tools (Looker/Tableau), or modern ERPs (NetSuite/Sage Intacct) is a strong plus.
A "Translator" mindset: You can effectively partner with Product and Engineering to translate complex accounting requirements into technical logic for platform features.
Operational Builder: Experience not just operating controls, but designing and implementing accounting processes and financial controls from scratch.
Resilience & Adaptability: You are comfortable working with ambiguity and navigating the complexities of a fast-scaling startup environment.
Experience we’d be particularly excited about
