Accountant

What We Do

Rillet serves accounting and finance teams. Our customers are the financial brains of their companies. Our job is to help them run the numbers with impossible speed, accuracy, and insight.

Rillet is an AI-native ERP that can drive a zero-day close. We are different because of our unified source-of-truth data model, hundreds of best-in-class native integrations (Stripe, Ramp, Salesforce, etc), automated & auditable workflows, multi-entity consolidation, and quickly expanding army of specialized AI agents (e.g., accrual, audit, P&L flux, board decks, etc). These earn us a consistently perfect customer satisfaction score. High-growth AI customers like Mercer, Windsurf, and Function Health love our ship velocity, because their financial stack needs to scale as quickly as they do.

This huge market is ours to take. We have raised $100M from leading investors (including Sequoia, a16z, Iconiq, Oak HC/FT, and First Round) to help everyone run their numbers at the speed of AI.

Who We Are

Rillet’s pace is not for everyone. Intelligence is table stakes. To succeed here, you need extreme speed, agency, and flexibility.

Successful Rilleteers do not wait for assignments. They internalize a mission, design a strategy, and bring back results that are better, faster, and more creative than a manager could have asked for.

Work revolves around our customers. Successful Rilleteers are energized by delivering the most important things, even those that weren’t in the original plan.

In this role, you do not need to be an accountant. But you do need to appreciate the value that our customers can create for their own company when we equip them with the perfect financial tools. Successful Rilleteers love powering the financial core of the world’s fastest-growing companies.

Who We Need

This role is for people who are currently in accounting roles but want to transition into one of our other departments. We're not hiring an accountant to do accounting work for Rillet with this posting at this time.

We’re looking for proven accountants and accounting leaders who want to work at the intersection of customers, product, and accounting. You’ve spent years in accounting roles and deeply understand how close processes, systems, and reporting actually work in fast-moving companies. You’re energized by ambiguity and enjoy shaping solutions rather than following playbooks. You can partner directly with customers, translate real-world accounting needs into practical outcomes, and earn trust quickly through clarity and judgment. You’re excited to represent the voice of accounting & finance inside a product-led, high-growth company.

What You’ll Do

• Work directly with customers to support and improve core accounting workflows, including month-end close, reconciliations, and financial reporting.

• Configure, implement, or optimize ERP systems and accounting processes to help finance teams move faster and operate with confidence.

• Get into the weeds on complex accounting challenges, diagnose root causes, and drive practical, high-quality solutions.

• Partner with executive stakeholders and senior finance leaders to translate accounting detail into clear outcomes and decisions.

• Collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, and Go-To-Market teams to represent real customer needs and inform how Rillet evolves.

• Support various departments, possibly including: Deployment, Customer Success, Partnerships, Solutions Consulting, or Product. (Depending on open roles, and your skillset!)
  

Who We’re Looking For

• 3+ years of experience working in accounting roles with exposure to month-end close and core accounting processes.

• Familiarity with modern ERP systems (e.g. NetSuite, Sage Intacct, or similar), including implementing, operating, or improving them.

• Strong accounting fundamentals and the ability to get into the weeds to solve real, practical problems.

• Comfort working directly with customers and internal stakeholders, including senior finance leaders and executives.

• A tech-forward mindset, curiosity about how software and automation can improve finance workflows, and the ability to learn quickly in ambiguous environments.

• Strongly Preferred: Experience working at, or supporting as clients, technology companies, especially start-ups.

• Strongly Preferred: CPA or degree in accounting.

Life at Rillet:

• Competitive Pay & Benefits: Backed by world-class investors, we offer strong salaries plus equity so you share in our success. We've got you covered with top-tier health and dental insurance, premiums partially or fully covered for you, plus 90% coverage for dependents.

• Room to Grow: We're building a team of ambitious, high-performing people who will grow with the company. As Rillet scales, so will your role, responsibilities, and compensation.

• Flexibility That Works: Take the time you need with flexible PTO and 9 company-wide holidays. We value both the flexibility of remote and hybrid work and the creativity and energy that comes from in-person collaboration at our hubs in San Francisco, NYC, and Barcelona.

• Build Real Connections: Great work happens when people connect. Join us for team offsites in incredible locations, our team has bonded everywhere from New York and San Francisco to Toronto, Italy, France, and beyond.
