About the role
We're hiring an experienced Controller to own accounting and financial operations at Metabase. It's a broad startup controller role: you'll own core accounting and audit, along with tax, payments, and expense management. Today we run as a small, high-leverage team that delivers much of this through external firms - accountants and tax professionals - so your initial focus will be on managing those partners. Over time, there's scope to bring accounting in-house.
What they're looking for
- Seasoned accountant with an active CPA
- Expertise with US GAAP, SaaS revenue recognition, stock based compensation, multi-entity / international accounting
- Owned full-cycle month end close / quarter end close processes and managed audits end-to-end
- Prior experience in a startup and / or big 4 audit a plus
- Undergraduate qualification in accounting, finance, or a rigorous quantitative field
- Strong investigative skills - you spot when something is off and can reconstruct what happened
