Robinhood is seeking a Technical Accounting Manager to join its Technical Accounting team, which sits at the intersection of innovation and rigor. This role focuses on translating novel financial products and complex transactions into sound, defensible accounting positions.
You will evaluate emerging and often ambiguous fact patterns, form well-reasoned accounting conclusions, and help shape how new products and strategic deals are structured from an accounting perspective. Key responsibilities include:
• Own technical accounting research and conclusions for new products, strategic transactions, and novel fact patterns—researching relevant US GAAP and SEC guidance, and drafting clear, well-supported position papers and memos
• Partner early with Product and Deal teams to understand proposed structures, identify accounting implications upfront, and help shape deal and product terms before finalization
• Evaluate emerging areas such as crypto/digital assets, new revenue arrangements, and frontier products where authoritative guidance is still developing, applying sound judgment to reach and document defensible conclusions
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Legal, Tax, Finance, Financial Reporting, Internal Controls, and external auditors to ensure accounting conclusions are integrated consistently across financial statements, disclosures, and controls
• Advise on accounting areas including ASC 606 revenue recognition, ASC 350-60 digital assets, ASC 810 consolidation and VIE evaluation, and ASC 815 Derivatives
Required qualifications: 5-8 years of progressive technical accounting experience, preferably with Big 4 or national firm background. Strong knowledge of U.S. GAAP, ability to research accounting literature, establish positions, and develop implementation procedures. Experience designing and documenting technical accounting policies and procedures. Excellent written and verbal communication skills for presenting complex accounting positions. Experience at a crypto company is a plus.
The role is based in Menlo Park, CA or New York, NY, with in-person attendance expected at least 3 days per week. Robinhood offers competitive compensation including base pay, bonus opportunities, equity, comprehensive health insurance, lifestyle wallet benefits, employer-paid life and disability insurance, fertility and mental health benefits, flexible time off, and an exceptional office experience.
