SaaS-AI Start-Up Controller

Base salary up to $200K + meaningful Equity We’re a well‑funded, high‑growth SaaS company in the accounting and financial automation space, and we’re hiring our first Controller. This isn’t a seat‑warmer role. You’ll be building the accounting function from the ground up: insourcing processes, establishing controls, and putting the infrastructure in place that will carry us through our next stage of growth. If you’re an Assistant Controller or Senior Accounting Manager ready for full ownership, this is the role. What You’ll Build and Own Insource and build out the core accounting function (GL, AP/AR, payroll, and month‑end close), establishing repeatable, scalable processes where many are nascent or outsourced today. Design and implement internal controls from scratch, building the compliance and audit‑readiness infrastructure appropriate for a fast‑scaling SaaS company. Own financial reporting: monthly, quarterly, and annual statements delivered accurately and on time, with variance analysis and commentary that supports CFO and board‑level decision making. Lead external audits, manage tax filings, and own banking and lender relationships, building credibility with outside stakeholders as the company matures. Ensure GAAP compliance and ASC 606 revenue recognition accuracy across a subscription‑based SaaS model, partnering with billing and contracts teams to keep revenue reporting clean. Monitor cash flow and working capital, supporting the CFO with the financial visibility needed to make confident operating decisions. What We’re Looking For CPA preferred 6–10 years of progressive experience in accounting and finance SaaS company background; you understand subscription revenue models ASC 606 fluency; you’ve handled multi‑element SaaS contracts Audit prep experience; you’ve led or heavily supported an external audit Process builder, not just a maintainer; you’ve built things from scratch Comfortable with ambiguity and able to prioritize in a fast‑moving environment Why This Role You won’t be the fifth person to sit in this seat; you’ll be the first. That means real influence over how the function is built, direct access to the CFO, and the satisfaction of seeing your systems and processes become the foundation the company scales on. Competitive base up to $200K plus meaningful equity. If you want to build something rather than just run something, let’s talk. #J-18808-Ljbffr Addison Group
