Controller

About TaxDome
At TaxDome, we’re building the #1 practice management platform for accounting firms in the US and globally. Founded in 2017, we’ve grown into a 400+ fully remote team across 40+ countries, serving tens of thousands of businesses worldwide with millions of end clients.

How we work
You’ll be part of a globally distributed team built on trust, ownership, and self-management.

We focus on outcomes over activity, prioritizing clear ownership, pragmatic decision-making, and accountability for results over rigid processes. Collaboration is central to how we operate: we communicate openly, involve the right people early, and continuously improve how we build products and teams together.

About this role
We’re looking for a detail-oriented, methodical Controller to own our accounting function, with primary responsibility for the month-end close and our core accounting systems.

This is a hands-on, accounting-focused role centered on technical accounting, close operations, and strengthening our controllership function as the company scales.

This is a fully remote role. Strong U.S. GAAP experience is required, and you are likely based outside the U.S. Meaningful overlap with U.S. business hours is a plus.

What you’ll be responsible for

• Own the month-end close end to end, driving the timeline, journal entries, accruals, and financial statement preparation.
• Maintain the general ledger and ensure the accuracy, completeness, and integrity of financial records.
• Own the chart of accounts, including its structure, governance, and ongoing simplification.
• Lead general ledger consolidation and simplification across entities.
• Own journal-entry and booking geography, defining where and how entries are recorded across the ledger and entities.
• Apply and uphold US GAAP across accounting policies, judgments, and disclosures.
• Lead the annual external audit, acting as the primary point of contact, preparing schedules, and managing the process through clean and timely completion.
• Own sales tax compliance and reporting, including management of the third-party tax collection and filing system.
• Collaborate closely with the payroll team on payroll accounting, ensuring accurate recording, reconciliation, and timely close inputs.
• Own and optimize our core accounting systems, including QuickBooks Online, Ramp and/or Brex, TaxWire, payroll systems, and their integrations.
• Own reconciliations across bank, credit card, and balance sheet accounts.
• Manage accounts payable and accounts receivable processes and their associated controls.
• Build, document, and continuously improve scalable and well-controlled accounting processes as the company grows.
• Manage and develop one direct report.
• Partner with the Finance Manager and FP&A team to ensure clean reporting handoffs.
• Support and help lead a future ERP implementation or migration.
• Use AI to support the month-end close, reconciliations, adversarial reviews, transaction matching, and similar accounting work.
• Automate policies and workflows, including expense approvals and documentation requests, so the accounting function can scale through systems and AI rather than manual effort.
• Use AI and data tools to identify patterns, improve transaction-matching quality, and continuously strengthen accounting processes.

What you bring
Must-have

• Deep, hands-on US GAAP expertise.
• Proven ownership of the full-cycle month-end close.
• Experience leading or managing an external audit.
• Hands-on experience with modern accounting technology, including QuickBooks Online, Ramp, and/or Brex.
• Familiarity with US sales tax compliance and reporting.
• Experience with payroll and payroll accounting while working alongside a payroll team.
• People-management experience, including responsibility for at least one direct report.
• A strong internal-controls mindset and a habit of documenting processes.
• A detail-oriented, methodical, and highly organized approach to work.
• Excellent written communication and self-organization in a fully remote environment.
• Proven experience adopting AI or data tools in a professional setting.
• Strong curiosity and a drive to automate workflows and scale output.
• A belief that AI should increase quality and leverage, not just speed.

Nice-to-have

• Experience with an ERP implementation or migration.
• CPA or an equivalent professional qualification.
• Experience in the SaaS or high-growth technology industry.
• Experience working in a fully remote, globally distributed team.
