The Role
As an Accounting Associate, you'll:
- Own the full accounting cycle and financial infrastructure: Build the company's accounting engine from the ground up on QuickBooks Online, managing everything from AR/AP to multi-entity intercompany reconciliations.
- Drive real-time burn visibility: Unlike traditional roles, you will close books almost daily to provide leadership with near-real-time data on cash position and burn in a fast-moving startup environment.
- Scale the Accounts Receivable engine: Dynamically calculate and automate the invoicing lifecycle based on client usage and contract terms, ensuring a scalable, auto-generated "cash collection machine".
- Navigate international complexity: Manage transactions, eliminations, and local compliance across subsidiaries in Colombia, Brazil, and Mexico, ensuring audit-ready consolidation.
- Sit at the intersection of Finance and AI: You won’t just do accounting; you will build automated reporting dashboards and use AI tools to eliminate repetitive tasks and manual errors.
Why Domu
- Real traction: Post $XXM in revenue, Fortune 500 customers, 12x YoY growth last year.
- AI First company: $1M+ revenue per employee; we don't just use AI, we are an AI-driven operation.
- Early enough to shape the foundation: You will design the chart of accounts and reporting structures from scratch, partnering directly with leadership on strategic financial decisions.
How We Work
- We care about doing great work: We maintain audit-grade standards and a high bar for accuracy, especially as we prepare for future ERP migrations.
- Ownership here is real: You won't be handed a ledger to maintain; you’ll see where automation is needed and build the reconciliation scripts yourself.
- We hire people whose judgment we trust: We expect you to flag cash flow risks and anomalies proactively, then give you the space to solve them.
What You Bring
- 1–3 years of professional accounting experience: Ideally with a background in a Big Four or top-tier accounting firm.
- Solid US GAAP knowledge: You understand the "why" behind the numbers and can apply high-level standards to a high-growth environment.
- AI Orientation: You have a genuine passion for and demonstrated use of AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, etc.) to automate workflows and productivity.
- Multi-entity expertise: Experience or strong knowledge of intercompany accounting and consolidation across different jurisdictions.
- System-building mindset: You are excited by "greenfield" setups and the challenge of building financial infrastructure from scratch.
Extras We'd Be Excited About
- LATAM Familiarity: Experience with accounting environments or local compliance in Colombia, Brazil, or Mexico.
- Fintech & Modern Tools: Hands-on experience with Brex, Ramp, or similar corporate card platforms and high-growth fintech tools.
- FP&A Potential: Ability to assist in building financial models for budgeting, forecasting, and tracking metrics like CAC and gross margin.
- ERP Exposure: Familiarity with NetSuite, SAP, or Oracle to help guide our eventual migration.
Ideal Archetypes
- The AI-Native Accountant: A Big Four alum who uses Claude and low-code tools to automate their work and prefers the speed of a startup to the slow month-end close.
- The Global Operator: An accountant with multi-entity experience who enjoys the complexity of international subsidiaries and transfer pricing.
- The Growth-Minded Controller: A detail-oriented professional who sees accounting as a strategic lever for fundraising and company-wide decision-making.
