As Controller, you will own the accounting function end-to-end, including technical accounting, close processes, audit readiness, tax coordination, controls, and team leadership.

Success metrics: within 90 days, establish trust and produce a clear evolution roadmap; within 6 months, execute the plan with improved team structure and faster processes; within 12 months, materially transform accounting operations with faster close, stronger cross-functional partnerships, and increased capacity for higher-value work.
Required qualifications: CPA certification; 8+ years progressive accounting experience including meaningful time as controller or near-controller level; strong command of technical accounting, GAAP, audit management, and controls; hands-on experience running audit and close processes with real ownership; track record improving accounting operations in lean environments; experience leading teams through process, systems, or organizational change; independent decision-making ability with clear reasoning; strong cross-functional instincts.
Preferred: SaaS or recurring-revenue environment experience; transaction-based or operationally complex model experience; hands-on modern accounting tools (Rillet, Tabs, or similar); demonstrated AI proficiency in accounting operations with real examples of using AI to shorten close, reduce manual review, improve decision-making, and build repeatable workflows with appropriate controls.
