About the role
We're hiring Obvio's first in-house accounting hire — an Accounting Manager who will take ownership of a function that has been run by an outsourced accounting firm and bring it in-house as we scale. This is a builder's role: you'll stand up the systems, controls, and processes a growing hardware-enabled-services company needs, while managing the day-to-day close, reporting, and compliance work yourself.
What they're looking for
- 5–10 years of progressive accounting experience, including time in an Accounting Manager, Senior Accountant, or Controller-track role
- Direct experience transitioning a company's books from an outsourced provider to an in-house function — you've done this before and know where the landmines are
- Hands-on ERP/accounting system implementation experience (Campfire, NetSuite, Sage Intacct, QuickBooks Online, or similar) — chart of accounts design, migration, and rollout
- Full-cycle month-end close ownership, from journal entries through finalized financial statements
- Comfort operating without a large team around you — you're equally happy doing the transactional work yourself and building the process that eventually lets you delegate it
- Strong Excel skills and a genuine interest in efficient, well-documented processes

We deploy solar-powered, AI-assisted cameras to enforce traffic laws where pedestrians are most vulnerable, automating enforcement in ways that traditional systems cannot. Our approach has already led to a 50% reduction in reckless driving in early partner cities.
