Ensure outputs are accurate, compliant, and customer-ready
Serve as the go-to domain expert for real-world SMB accounting edge cases

Deep expertise with QuickBooks Online (required); experience with Xero is a plus
Strong operational mindset — you know how to build repeatable, scalable processes
Experience managing and reviewing work from bookkeepers or contractors
Comfortable working with imperfect inputs (bank feeds, messy transactions, unclear receipts)
Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate cross-functionally with product/engineering
Self-starter who thrives in early-stage environments and enjoys building from scratch

Nice to have

CPA license (or equivalent strong credentials)
Experience in modern bookkeeping/accounting firms (e.g., Pilot, Bench, inDinero) or fractional CFO services
Familiarity with payroll accounting (Gusto), AP/AR tooling (Bill.com), payments (Stripe), ecommerce stacks (Shopify/Square)
Exposure to 1099 processes, sales tax basics, and SMB operational finance

Why join
