## About the role

The Controller owns the entire accounting function and is the second finance leader, working directly alongside the Head of Finance. To start, this is a player-coach seat. It is you and one accountant, so you run and review the close yourself and own the technical work directly, then hire and build the team over the next 12 to 18 months. You need to be as comfortable in the details as you are leading.

## What they're looking for

- 7+ years of progressive accounting experience, or an Accounting Manager/Assistant Controller ready to step up into a full controllership
- Experience independently owned a month-end close, handling real revenue recognition (ASC 606). This seat cannot be someone's first time doing any of the three
- Hardware experience required, you have done the accounting for a company that ships physical product, so inventory, COGS, and hardware revenue and bundling are familiar ground, not a learning curve
- A strong technical accountant: hands-on with US GAAP, revenue recognition (ASC 606) and consolidations, ideally also leases (842), stock-based comp (718), and capitalized software
- CPA preferred
- Audit experience, internal or external
