About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Define the strategy and own the connectivity layer to the accounting and ERP systems our customers' accountants use. QuickBooks Online, Xero, NetSuite, Sage Intacct, etc.
Build expense management that works for owners and the accountants reconciling on their behalf. Receipt capture, GL coding, approval workflows, integration into the accounting tools without requiring manual reconciliation downstream.
Own bill pay and AR/AP. The workflow from invoice received to vendor paid, from invoice sent to customer paid, with full reconciliation back to the accounting system.
Build the invoicing product. We do not have a real invoicing offering today and customers are starting to ask. Decide what shape it takes and ship it.
Architect the connection between business financial data and personal financial data. This is the wedge no other fintech has. Make the integrated owner life real in product so the accountant can deliver it cleanly.
Partner closely with the Banking, Credit, Cards, and Payments product owners so financial flows tie out cleanly across the stack. No seams. No reconciliation tax for the accountant or the customer.
Translate the controller, CFO, and CPA persona for the rest of the company. We need someone who speaks both owner and accountant fluently. And can translate it to the owner mindset.

Requirements

What you’ll need

You have spent years thinking about how business owners and the accountants who serve them actually run financial operations. You know the difference between a bookkeeper, a controller, a fractional CFO, and an outside accountant, and you have built product for at least one of them.
Deep, hands-on familiarity with at least two of: QuickBooks Online, Xero, NetSuite, Sage Intacct, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, Acumatica. Not "I know they exist." Actually built in or integrated to them at depth.
You can journal a transaction without looking it up. You understand accrual versus cash basis, the close cycle, what a 1099 is for, and why a controller cares about the audit trail.
You have built either inside an accounting platform, on top of one as an integration partner, or built a fintech product that lives natively in the accounting workflow.
You understand the accountant channel and how CPAs influence product adoption. Bonus if you have built for or partnered with CPAs directly.
Typically 4 to 10 years of experience. Title is not the point.
