  • Hands-on experience with ERP systems; NetSuite highly preferred.
  • Experience working with Stripe, Airbase, and document management platforms like Egnyte is strongly valued.
  • Excellent analytical, communication, and organizational skills.
  • A self-starter with a problem-solving mindset, strong attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple tasks in a fast-paced environment.

Why Join Us?

  • Be a foundational member of the accounting team and play a key role in building processes that support our rapid growth.
