JOB OVERVIEW

Senior Accountant & Finance Systems Architect
CPA Preferred | 10+ Years Experience | Hybrid/Remote

About the Role
We're hiring a Senior Accountant who operates at the intersection of accounting rigor and operational engineering. This is not a traditional accounting seat. We need a seasoned CPA who has lived in the trenches of hedge funds, high-growth startups, and complex multi-entity operations—and who brings the rare ability to build scalable, automated finance systems from the ground up.
You'll own the full finance function: month-end close, financial reporting, forecasting, compliance, and investor-ready deliverables. What sets this role apart is the expectation that you will also architect and automate the systems behind these processes—leveraging SQL, Brex, and modern tooling to eliminate manual work, improve data integrity, and unlock strategic insight.

What You'll Own
Financial Reporting & Close
Lead monthly, quarterly, and year-end close processes across multiple entities and currencies. Prepare US GAAP-compliant financial statements, management reports, and board-ready materials. Own revenue recognition, accruals, journal entries, intercompany eliminations, and reconciliations. Manage fund accounting, NAV calculations, and investor reporting as applicable.
Forecasting, Budgeting & Strategic Finance
Build and maintain dynamic forecasting and cash flow models that inform executive decision-making. Lead annual budgeting cycles and deliver monthly variance analysis with actionable narrative. Partner with leadership on scenario planning, capital allocation, and profitability analysis.
Finance Systems & Automation
Design, build, and maintain automated financial workflows that eliminate manual bottlenecks. Write SQL queries (PostgreSQL) for financial reporting, data extraction, and reconciliation at scale. Develop Python scripts for trading system integrations, API-driven data pipelines, and financial automation. Build BI dashboards and custom reporting systems for real-time financial visibility. Implement AI-assisted process optimization to continuously improve finance operations.
Compliance, Tax & Legal Coordination
Oversee payroll processing, sales tax compliance, and government reporting requirements. Manage government compliance filings, loan applications, and audit preparation. Coordinate with external counsel and auditors on contract reviews, regulatory matters, and legal documentation.

Requirements
Non-Negotiables

Active CPA license in good standing
10+ years of progressive accounting experience spanning fund accounting, startup finance, and/or multi-entity operations
Deep expertise in US GAAP financial reporting, monthly close, and consolidation
Proficiency in SQL (PostgreSQL preferred) for financial data querying and reporting
Hands-on experience with Python for financial automation, API integrations, or trading system support
Advanced Excel and Google Sheets skills including complex nested formulas, financial models, and automated dashboards
Demonstrated ability to design and implement process automation and scalable finance workflows
Experience with QuickBooks Online in a multi-entity environment

Strongly Preferred

Background in hedge fund accounting, NAV reporting, or alternative investment operations
Experience with BI/analytics platforms
Familiarity with Microsoft Access for custom reporting systems
Track record managing payroll, sales tax, and multi-state compliance
Experience with government loan applications (SBA, PPP, EIDL, or similar)
Comfort operating in fast-paced, resource-constrained environments where you build the plane while flying it

What Sets You Apart
You don't just close the books—you ask why the process took 10 days and engineer it down to 3. You see a messy reconciliation and build a powered pipeline to handle it. You understand that clean financial data is a strategic asset, not just a compliance obligation. You move fluidly between debits and credits, scripts, and board presentations.
The ideal candidate combines the analytical discipline of a Big 4-trained accountant with the builder's mindset of a startup operator. You're equally comfortable presenting to investors, debugging a data pipeline, and negotiating with auditors.
