We need someone to sit inside Finance and own the accounting that keeps all of it accurate, closed on time, and ready for what comes next.

As our L6 Senior Accountant you will own the month-end close and the general ledger, and you will build the accounting foundation for a Series B company gearing up for Series C. This is an individual contributor position reporting to Wander's VP of Finance, working closely with our Accounting Supervisor, our external accounting and tax partners, and the Product and Engineering teams that build the systems the money flows through. You will not just be maintaining systems. You will be building them.

This role is remote across the US. If you are in Austin or San Francisco, we have offices waiting for you (SF is in the Presidio).
