Job Description

Accounting Manager at Solace managing monthly close processes and improving accounting operations in a startup environment. Supporting audit readiness and mentoring junior teammates for growth.

Responsibilities:

  • Own key areas of the monthly close, including timelines, checklists, journal entries, and review-ready support.
  • Prepare and/or review complex reconciliations and rollforwards (accruals, payroll, deferred items, reserves as applicable).
  • Build and enforce a clean close cadence: cutoff discipline, variance analysis, and clear ownership.
  • Partner with FP&A to ensure actuals are reliable and variances are understood (and not explained away).
  • Strengthen accounting operations: improve workflows for expense coding, approvals, and documentation.
  • Support audit/tax readiness: maintain PBC-ready support, respond to requests, and drive issues to resolution.
  • Implement lightweight internal controls appropriate for our stage (segregation, approvals, change logs, close sign-offs).
  • Help evaluate and improve tools/systems (ERP, expense platform, AP tools) and establish scalable processes.
  • Mentor junior teammates as the team grows (review work, level up documentation and rigor).

Requirements:

  • 4+ years of accounting experience; Big 4 background preferred.
  • Experience in an operating environment (startup/scale-up or public company) where you participated in a real close cycle.
  • Demonstrated ownership of meaningful close areas (not just assisting).
  • Strong technical accounting fundamentals and sound judgment (knowing when to escalate).
  • Strong Excel/Sheets skills; comfort working with large datasets and imperfect inputs.
  • Clear communication and cross-functional partnering. You’re able to push for what’s needed without creating friction.
  • Applicants must be based in the United States.

Benefits:

  • Health insurance
  • Paid time off
  • Professional development opportunities
