We're looking for a Senior Accountant (AI-Native) to own the full accounting function for a fast-scaling premium food brand sold through major retail, the natural channel, and direct to consumer. You will bring day-to-day accounting in house from an outside firm, run the monthly close end to end, own the general ledger and financial statements, and lead the company's deduction and chargeback recovery. This is a build-and-own role, not a maintenance seat.
This is also a genuinely technology-forward role. You will run the company's cloud finance stack, build dashboards and automated workflows, and use Claude every day to work faster and think more clearly. If you bring strong full-cycle depth, US GAAP experience, a CPG or food and beverage background, and real enthusiasm for using AI and automation to do finance better, this role is a strong fit.
Why You'll Want to Join You will be paid in USD (bi-monthly: every 15th and 30th)
Paid Time Off in accordance with company policy
Observance of Holidays per company guidelines
100% remote setup so you can work wherever you're most productive
This role requires availability during US business hours
Own the entire accounting function of a fast-growing premium food brand with major retail and DTC distribution
Real room to grow as the company scales, up to running the whole system independently
What You'll Work On Full-Cycle Accounting and Monthly Close
Run the monthly, quarterly, and annual close on a proactive, tight calendar with no chasing and no surprises
Own AP, AR, bank and credit card reconciliations, journal entries, accruals, prepaids, fixed assets, and intercompany entries
Keep an accurate, reconciled balance sheet and a clear, timely income statement with variance commentary management can act on
Work with the outside firm to internalize their work and steadily take full ownership
Revenue Recognition and Financial Statements
Apply US GAAP revenue recognition for CPG and FMCG including gross-to-net, trade spend, slotting, promotions, and returns so the top line is clean and defensible
Keep the books audit-ready and lender-ready at all times, backed by a clean audit trail that stands up to bank and lender scrutiny
Own audit prep and support external auditors and tax preparers
Deductions and Chargebacks
Own retail and distributor deductions and chargebacks end to end including shortages, MCBs, spoilage,



and freight
Identify, document, validate, and dispute deductions, file at scale, track recovery, and lead the workflow that wins back cash that would otherwise be lost
Reach out to customers and distributors on AR, collections, and disputed deductions to resolve issues early and keep cash coming in
Cost Analysis and Savings
Analyze margin, COGS, vendor spend, and freight to find cost leaks and bring management specific, actionable ways to save without being asked
Manage cash reporting, AR aging, vendor terms, and inputs to forecasting and the line of credit
Compliance
Own sales tax, 1099s, and internal controls and keep the company diligence-ready as it raises capital
Cloud-Native and AI-First Ways of Working
Own and run the cloud finance stack including Xero and Airtable with disciplined, well-documented books
Build and maintain live dashboards and trackers for close status, AR aging, deductions and recovery, cash, and margin so the team sees the numbers without asking
Connect and automate across the ledger, banks, Airtable, deduction management, OCR, and settlement tools so data flows without manual re-keying
Use Claude daily to reconcile, categorize, draft dispute packages, and speed up analysis, and build repeatable documented processes around it — you always check the AI's work before it reaches the books
What You Bring Bachelor's degree in Accounting or a related field
At least 5 years of full-cycle accounting including running a monthly close and preparing financial statements
Working command of US GAAP with experience supporting US-based companies
Strong with spreadsheets and cloud accounting and comfortable owning and running a stack like Xero and Airtable, not just working inside it
Comfortable using AI in your work or genuinely excited to get up to speed fast — you should be ready to use Claude every day and to sanity-check what it produces
Exposure to trade spend, deductions, and distributor or retailer chargeback disputes,



or the ability to learn this quickly and run it across a distributed team
Excellent written and spoken English with proactive communication across time zones
Flags issues early and closes loops without being asked
CPG, FMCG, food and beverage, or consumer goods experience strongly preferred
Nice to Have CPA or local equivalent
Hands-on experience building automated accounting workflows with AI tools including Claude
Background supporting a high-growth or venture-backed consumer brand
Experience with natural channel distributors such as UNFI or KeHE
Prior experience bringing accounting in house from an outside firm
How to Apply Please include:
Your updated resume
A short Loom video (1 to 2 minutes) introducing yourself, describing your full-cycle accounting experience, and walking through a deduction or chargeback dispute process you owned or a close process you improved — including the tools, dashboards, or AI workflows you used
Only candidates who submit a Loom video will be moved to the next step of the hiring process.
If you are a sharp, full-cycle accountant who can own the books end to end, recover cash through deduction management, and use AI and automation to run a finance function that punches above its weight, this role gives you the ownership and the room to grow to do your best work.
