About the job
Deepgram is the leading platform underpinning the emerging trillion-dollar Voice AI economy, providing real-time APIs for speech-to-text (STT), text-to-speech (TTS), and building production-grade voice agents at scale.
What You'll Do
- Push the close forward. Own the critical-path workstreams and drive them to done. Chase open items, unblock the team, escalate early, and keep the calendar honest.
- Prepare the complex and judgmental areas. Stock-based compensation, leases, capitalized software, payroll and compensation accruals, intercompany and foreign currency.
- Review the established areas. Fixed assets, prepaids, cash, recurring accruals and journal entries, AP, expense reports - prepared by the Senior Accountant and offshore team, reviewed by you.
- Own the tie-out and the story. Consolidation and the close package, plus flux analysis in narrative.
- Manage and develop the team. Coach the Senior Accountant, set the standard, and delegate in ways that grow them.
- Be a day-to-day owner in the first external audit. Build PBC packages and run walkthroughs.
- Design close controls that survive SOX. Documented, evidenced, repeatable.
- Own your workstream in ERP migration off Xero. Close-process design, subledger migration, cutover reconciliations.
- Rebuild the work around AI. Reconciliation matching, anomaly detection, schedule generation, workflow automation.
What You'll Need
- 6+ years of progressive accounting experience, including technical close areas and real experience reviewing another accountant's work.
- Active CPA preferred. Big 4 or national firm foundation a plus.
- Deep operational US GAAP fluency in capitalization, equity compensation, leases, payroll, intercompany, and foreign currency.
- Hands-on ERP and systems experience with equity administration platforms, payroll systems, close tooling, and spend platforms.
- Demonstrated AI-native working style. Use LLMs daily on accounting work with reasoned views on where AI is trustworthy.
- Comfort writing small scripts (Python, SQL, Apps Script) for schedules and reconciliations.
- Strong written communication and reviewer instincts.
- High integrity, high ownership, low ego.
It Would Be Great If You Had
- Experience preparing for or running a company's first external audit.
- Experience implementing or migrating an ERP.
- SaaS, usage-based, or AI infrastructure accounting experience.
- Multi-entity and international intercompany accounting exposure.
- SOX control design or public-company close experience.
- Experience working with offshore or outsourced accounting teams.
- Reasoned views on the modern accounting stack developed through use.
