You’ll partner closely with leadership, policy experts, and external advisors to ensure our financial reporting is accurate, audit-ready, and defensible in a rapidly evolving industry.
What You’ll Do:
- Research, draft, and maintain technical accounting memos on complex transactions (SAFEs, SAFTs, token conversions, carve-outs, revenue recognition)
- Support M&A, restructurings, and valuations (ASC 805 purchase price allocations, goodwill, deferred taxes, entity wind-downs)
- Assist in designing and operationalizing crypto accounting policies, including token compensation, staking, and on-chain activity
- Contribute to financial reporting and disclosures, including crypto holdings, fair value hierarchy, and audit support
- Work cross-functionally to improve processes, controls, and accounting technology to reduce reconciliation risk and scale operations
- CPA (active) or equivalent, with 5–8 years of experience (Big 4 assurance or technical advisory strongly preferred)
- Solid foundation in U.S. GAAP (ASC), with experience drafting memos and disclosures
- Exposure to complex transactions (M&A, equity/debt instruments, restructurings) - crypto exposure a plus, but not required
- Comfort working in a fast-paced startup environment with evolving policies and priorities
- Proficiency with ERP systems (e.g., NetSuite) and interest in accounting automation/crypto sub-ledger tools
- Strong communication skills - able to translate technical guidance into clear documentation for auditors and leadership
