What we do and why we do it As the leading end-to-end investment platform for single-family rental homes (SFR), our mission is to reinvent the rental housing ecosystem for the benefit of all. We successfully merge our passion for helping investors build wealth through real estate with cutting edge technology that transforms the way they do it. How it’s going (and growing) With a talented team of 750+ Roofsters, our collaborative, can-do culture is what fuels our growth. In 2022, we closed on our Series E, raising $240 million, and have offices in the Bay Area and New York City. Our growth includes recent acquisitions of Stessa (financial and asset management software), RentPrep (tenant screening and placement service for landlords), and Mynd (property management platform for both Retail and Institutional investors). In 2025, Roofstock took an ownership stake in Casago (short-term rental management services), expanding our platform to support both long-term and short-term rental investment services. Corporate accounting’s mission is to create value to the Company through integrity, leadership and business partnership. Our primary responsibility is to prepare and report the consolidated financial statements to senior management and to enhance the Company in making informative business decisions. About the Role We are seeking a hands-on Assistant Controller to lead our corporate accounting, ERP strategy, and financial reporting.

Oversee the preparation and review of complex financial statement footnotes to ensure full GAAP compliance. Proactively manage the audit lifecycle, including detailed schedules and the coordination of PBC (Prepared by Client) lists, to drive a seamless, timely, and efficient audit process. * Internal Controls: Design and deploy robust internal control frameworks that scale with organizational growth, and champion a culture of compliance by authoring and enforcing sophisticated accounting policies. * Procurement & Accounts Payable: Oversee end-to-end procurement, accounts payable and T&E processes. Implement AI Agents within our procurement tools to improve efficiency and maintain strict financial controls. * Treasury & Cash Management: Lead treasury operations, including corporate bank account administration, cash positioning, and debt facility management. Develop AI-enabled cash forecasting models to optimize liquidity and provide proactive insights on cash flow trends. Maintain strict internal controls over wire and ACH disbursements, ensuring accurate monthly cash flow reporting and covenant compliance. * Team Leadership: Lead and mentor a team of five accountants, fostering a culture of high performance, continuous improvement, and professional development.
