Senior Accountant

Strategic Employment

A well-funded, fast-growing AI company on the San Francisco Peninsula is adding a Senior Accountant as it brings its bookkeeping in-house from an outside firm. This is the first dedicated, hands-on accountant on a small finance team that recently moved to a modern accounting platform. You’ll own AP, AR, vendor management and the general ledger, play a central role in a faster, more accurate month-end close, and help shape how the books run as the company scales.

What They’re Looking For

  • 4+ years of hands-on accounting at the Senior Accountant level, doing the work rather than reviewing it
  • Strong month-end close, reconciliation and general ledger fundamentals
  • Solid AP, AR and purchase-to-payment experience
  • Experience maintaining a chart of accounts and keeping expense coding clean
  • In-house experience at a larger, audited company preferred
  • Audit support, consolidation or system migration experience a plus
  • CPA or progress toward one a plus

On-site role.

This is a chance to build the accounting function rather than maintain someone else’s. You’ll set the standards for how the books are kept at one of the best-funded companies in AI, at a stage where your work directly shapes the company’s first audits and its growth from here. It’s an in-office role on the Peninsula with a full benefits package, including a 401(k), and visa sponsorship is available for the right candidate.
