About Remi

Remi is a fast-growing, venture-backed company scaling our finance and accounting function. We’re building a high-rigor close, cleaning up years of general ledger activity, and preparing for an external audit while transitioning from QBO to a scalable ERP. If you love clean workpapers, clear tie-outs, and learning by doing, you’ll fit right in.

Role Summary

You’ll be a core contributor to our monthly close and audit readiness. Day-to-day, you’ll prepare and own reconciliations, book and document journal entries, support AR/AP workflows, and assemble audit-ready PBCs. You’ll work closely with the Accounting Manager to standardize processes, improve data quality, and shorten the close.

What you’ll do

Close & G/L (Primary)

• Prepare and own balance-sheet reconciliations (cash, AR/AP, prepaids, fixed assets, accruals/deferrals) ; maintain roll-forward schedules with clear tick-marks and support.
• Post recurring and ad-hoc journal entries with documentation and approvals; maintain a clean audit trail.
• Perform monthly flux analysis and investigate variances; propose corrections with clear rationale.
• Maintain a standardized workpaper package each month (index, naming conventions, sign-offs).
  

Audit & Controls

• Build PBC packages (reports, tie-outs, samples) and respond to auditor requests with accuracy and speed.
• Follow and help improve close checklists, review workflows, and evidence retention standards.
  

AR/AP Rotations

• Support billing, cash application, and collections reporting; help resolve unapplied cash and short-pays.
• Process vendor bills, assist with payment runs, and ensure correct coding, approvals, and cut-off .
  

Systems & Data

• Work in QuickBooks Online while helping test and document processes for our ERP transition.
• Reconcile data between internal systems/subledgers and the G/L; surface mismatches early.
  

Cross-functional

• Partner with Operations and the Technical Accounting lead to ensure clean cut-off for revenue and costs.
• Communicate clearly—brief write-ups, crisp summaries, and proactive status updates.
  

What you’ll learn / growth path

• Master building audit-quality workpapers and recon programs.
• Exposure to ERP implementation.
• Clear advancement path to Senior Accountant (lead reconciliations, reviewer responsibilities, process ownership).
  

Qualifications

Must-have

• Bachelor’s in Accounting, Finance, or related field (or 1+ year relevant accounting experience including internships).
• Solid grasp of GAAP basics (accruals, deferrals, revenue/cost cut-off) and how they show up in entries and reconciliations.
• Excel/Sheets proficiency: SUMIFS, INDEX/XMATCH, PivotTables, text functions, and error-handling.
• Strong attention to detail; you enjoy finding the $0.01 and explaining the “why.”
• Clear written communication and an organized approach to documentation.
  

Nice-to-have

• Experience in a high-growth company or public accounting.
• Familiarity with QuickBooks Online.
• Basic BI/SQL or reconciliation automation exposure (not required).
  

Tools you’ll use

• QuickBooks Online (transitioning to a scalable ERP)
• Google Sheets/Excel, Google Drive
• Bill Pay/Expensing tools (Ramp)
  

Success in your first 90 days

• Month 1: Own a set of BS reconciliations with reviewed, audit-ready workpapers.
• Month 2: Zero aged recon breaks >30 days; accurate recurring JEs with documented support.
• Month 3: Deliver a complete close binder section end-to-end and lead at least one process improvement (e.g., template, checklist, or automation).
  

Benefits

• Lunch stipend: $20/day
• Unlimited PTO
• 401(k): 5% company match
• Health coverage: 100% paid medical; dental/vision plans
• Parental leave: 100% paid
