•     Demonstrated ability to prepare accurate, well-documented journal entries and balance sheet reconciliations.
•     Strong analytical skills, comfortable building and owning Excel-based schedules and reconciliations in a scaling environment.

Preferred Qualifications

•     Experience working in a high-growth company where processes are still being built.

What Makes You a Great Fit

You’re someone who takes genuine pride in getting the numbers right. You don’t just complete a reconciliation; you think about whether it makes sense, and you ask questions when it doesn’t. You’re comfortable owning your workload independently, but you also know when to escalate. You’re looking for a role where you can grow and take on more over time, and you want to be somewhere that gives you the exposure to do it.

What We Offer

•     Competitive salary and performance-based bonus
•     Comprehensive health, dental, and vision coverage
•     401(k) with company match
•     Flexible hybrid work environment
•     A high-growth environment where your work has real, visible impact
