Job Description:

We’re hiring a Technical Accounting Director to build and scale a best-in-class financial reporting function. You’ll sit close to Finance leadership and operate at the center of our most complex accounting, reporting, and disclosure decisions—turning technical complexity into clear, audit-ready output. This is a senior, high-impact leadership role with real ownership. You’ll set the direction for technical accounting and external reporting, partner closely with cross-functional leaders, and help define how financial information is prepared, reviewed, and communicated as the company scales.

Job Responsibility:

  • Owning end-to-end financial statements and disclosures, including GAAP financials, footnotes, rollforwards, tie-outs, and supporting schedules
  • Leading external audit strategy and execution, serving as the primary point of contact for auditors and driving high-quality, on-time delivery
  • Overseeing complex technical accounting areas, including stock-based compensation, business combinations, leases, capitalized software, and other judgment-heavy estimates
  • Leading technical accounting research and review of memos to support accounting conclusions, disclosures, and policy decisions
  • Driving SEC and public-company reporting readiness, including building processes and documentation to support future 10-Q, 10-K, and other filings
  • Partnering with FP&A, Legal, and Investor Relations to align financial results, KPIs, and materials for leadership, board, and external stakeholders
  • Translating complex accounting matters into clear disclosures, executive-level narratives, and decision-ready communications
  • Designing and scaling reporting processes, controls, and automation to improve accuracy, efficiency, and audit readiness
  • Supporting M&A activity, including due diligence, purchase accounting, and post-transaction integration
  • Leading and mentoring team members, setting standards for technical excellence, accountability, and continuous improvement

Requirements:

  • 10+ years of progressive accounting experience, including significant technical accounting and financial reporting leadership
  • Experience from a technology and/or scale-up start-up environment
  • Deep expertise in U.S. GAAP and hands-on experience preparing and reviewing audited financial statements and disclosures
  • Proven experience leading external audits and delivering high-quality, audit-ready reporting in high-growth environments
  • Experience supporting public-company readiness, SEC reporting, or operating within a SOX-compliant environment
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain complex accounting topics to senior leaders and non-technical partners
  • A high degree of ownership, accountability, and comfort leading through change
  • CPA required

Nice to have:

  • Big 4 public accounting experience
  • Experience supporting IPO readiness or operating as a public company
  • Exposure to M&A, including due diligence and purchase accounting
  • Experience with financial reporting and ERP systems (e.g., Workiva, Oracle)
  • Interest in leveraging automation, systems, and AI to improve reporting quality and scalability
What we offer:
  • Comprehensive salary, benefits, and tools for success
  • Union Square NYC office designed for ambitious builders
  • U.S. employees receive medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • Flexible paid time off plus company holidays
  • 401(k) with company match and automatic enrollment
