About The Position

We're the all-in-one agentic marketing platform. AI-native from day one. We're not joining a category, we're defining it. We're looking for a Lead Accountant (US Accounting) who will own the daily and monthly financial processes that keep this company organized, and build the structure behind them.

Everything here is being built or rebuilt.
