More about this role

Nobody went into accounting to spend the first week of every month matching transactions by hand. Maxima was built so they don't have to. Our agents do the accounting work itself: journal entries, transaction matching, reconciliations, and flux analysis, continuously and with a full audit trail. Accountants review and approve. Nothing posts without a person signing off. We remove the grind, not the human.

Maxima is the agentic AI platform for enterprise accounting. Our three co-founders scaled finance at Rubrik from $5M ARR to a $15B NYSE IPO, built the reconciliation and billing systems behind Netflix's $32B in annual revenue, and built AI infrastructure serving two billion monthly users at Meta. We've raised $41M from Redpoint Ventures, Kleiner Perkins and Audacious Ventures, joined by former BlackLine executives and the CFOs of Rubrik and Vanta. To date we've processed more than $400B across 350M transactions at 100.00% accuracy, for customers including Scale AI, Rippling, Glean, Zendesk, Handshake, Zip, and Decagon.
