About the Job: I’m Atlee, the Controller at Ashby. I am thrilled to be hiring a Senior Accounting Manager to join our team! I recently joined Ashby and am excited to continue to build out the team, drive process improvement, and take Ashby's accounting to the next level. My favorite thing about Ashby is how intentional we are in everything we do here. We are looking for a detail-oriented and highly experienced Senior Accounting Manager to own complex accounting areas, drive process and control improvements, and play a key role in the month end close process. The ideal candidate brings deep technical expertise, strong judgment, and the ability to thrive in a dynamic environment focused on long-term impact and timely execution. As we prepare for our first financial audit and continue to scale, this role offers meaningful ownership and growth potential. You’ll play a key role in audit readiness, process improvement, and helping the team tighten close and reporting timelines. We’re seeking someone who embraces change and brings a proactive, solutions-focused mindset to evolving our accounting practices. Note: We review all applications, and there isn’t a benefit to applying quickly. Take your time, look at the application questions and please submit before the application deadline! We aren’t able to take calls outside of the interview process, so please do not reach out to the team directly. Your initial responsibilities will include: Implementing and owning the software capitalization process, including policy development, journal entries, and reconciliations Building and owning the commissions capitalization process, including journal entries, reporting, and reconciliations Owning stock-based compensation and equity accounting, including journal entries, reconciliations, and disclosure support Owning payroll-related journal entries and reconciliations Assisting with allocation calculations and journal entries, including overhead, customer support, and depreciation Supporting accounting for unique and complex transactions as they arise Supporting public company readiness initiatives, including internal control implementation, financial reporting, and close process improvements Working directly with external auditors on assigned areas Supporting the broader accounting team and take on ad hoc projects as needed You should apply if: You are a CPA and have 10+ years of accounting experience, ideally in a high-growth tech or SaaS environment. You've navigated complexity before, whether that's equity compensation, commissions accounting, or supporting a company through its first audit. You take ownership seriously. When something is yours, you see it all the way through, from policy development to reconciliation to audit support. You don't wait to be asked. You're audit-ready by nature. You think about documentation, controls, and financial reporting not as a once-a-year scramble but as something you build into how you work every day. You're a builder. You're excited by the opportunity to implement new processes and tools from scratch, and you see that as an opportunity, not a burden. You're a team player who doesn't think anything is beneath you. Our team is small and we cover for each other. You're willing to roll up your sleeves wherever the team needs support. Why you shouldn’t apply: You need a lot of hand-holding to get started. We're a small, lean team and while questions are always welcome, we need someone who can dig in independently, figure things out, and bring solutions to the table. You're not comfortable with ambiguity. Some of what this role owns doesn't have a fully built-out process yet. If you do your best work when everything is already defined, this environment will be frustrating. Technical accounting isn't really your thing. Equity, capitalized software, commissions accounting, and allocations are core to this role. If these areas feel unfamiliar or uncomfortable, you'll have a hard time keeping up. You're looking for a people management role right now. This is an individual contributor position. While there is potential for direct reports down the road, that's not where we are today. If managing a team is important to you in your next role, this may not be the right fit. You think about audit as a once-a-year event. We're building toward our first audit and need someone who thinks about audit readiness as part of how they work every day. You've only worked in public accounting. This role requires someone who understands the pace and complexity of working inside a growing company, not just preparing work papers from the outside. You prefer a narrowly defined role. Our team is small and coverage matters. You may be asked to step into areas outside your core scope, and that should feel like an opportunity, not an inconvenience. Interview Plan: Recruiter Screen with Michelle - 30min Hiring Manager Interview with Atlee - 45min Take-home Assignment Assignment Debrief with Atlee - 30min Final Round - 1.5-2 hours Benefits Competitive salary and equity. Unlimited PTO with four weeks recommended per year (we encourage you to take it!) Generous equipment, software, and office furniture budget. Get what you need to be happy and productive! 10-year exercise window for stock options.

If you’re in the US, top-notch health insurance for you and your dependents with 100% of all premiums covered by us, Flexible Spending Accounts and 401K match. We also offer up to 12 weeks of fully paid family/parental leave for all caregivers. Ashby’s success hinges on hiring great people and creating an environment where we can be happy, feel challenged, and do our best work. We’re being deliberate about building that environment from the ground up. I hope that excites you enough to apply. We're in the talent acquisition software business.
