• Experience managing multiple US entities
• Experience with QuickBooks Online or Zoho Books
• Experience with payroll, 1099s, W-2 coordination, sales tax, and state filings

What We’re Looking For

We want someone who is proactive and operational. You should be comfortable noticing that an invoice is overdue, a Stripe dispute needs a response, a transaction does not reconcile, or a tax deadline is coming up — and taking ownership of getting it resolved.

This is a high-ownership role with significant responsibility across the company's accounting and finance operations.
