[Remote] Senior Accountant

Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Deepgram is the leading platform in the Voice AI economy, providing real-time APIs for various voice applications. They are seeking a Senior Accountant to support the monthly close and core operational accounting as the company scales toward audit readiness and IPO, working closely with the Director of Accounting on day-to-day financial tasks.

Responsibilities

• Support monthly, quarterly, and annual GL close — prepare assigned reconciliations, post journal entries, hit close calendar deadlines
• Prepare account reconciliations across cash, accruals, prepaids, fixed assets, intercompany, AP, and others — with documentation that holds up to audit. (AR reconciliations sit with the revenue accounting team.)
• Prepare recurring and accrual journal entries with appropriate support; flag cutoff or judgment calls to the Director of Accounting
• Partner with our offshore AP team on day-to-day AP — review their work, handle exceptions and escalations, support vendor onboarding, and prepare AP reconciliations
• Process and review expense reports; support intercompany, fixed asset, and prepaid schedules
• Contribute to flux analysis — pull the variances, draft initial commentary, escalate the unexplained ones to the Director of Accounting
• Support external audit PBC requests — pull the documentation, prepare the schedules, respond to auditor questions on assigned areas
• Follow and help improve the close playbook the Director of Accounting maintains. Suggest improvements; flag what's broken
• Use AI in your daily close work — for reconciliation matching, anomaly detection, JE drafting support, narrative drafts, vendor lookups. Bring back what works to the rest of the team
• Support tax, treasury, and FP&A counterparts on data and reporting needs as requested

Skills

• 5+ years of progressive accounting experience, including hands-on close cycle experience as a contributor
• Active CPA preferred. Strong public accounting (Big 4 or national firm) foundation a plus
• Solid working fluency in US GAAP at the operational level — accruals, deferrals, capitalization, intercompany, foreign currency, cutoff. Knows when to ask
• A demonstrated AI-native working style — you use LLMs daily for accounting work and can talk concretely about what AI does well and where it falls short for close work. You don't need to have built infrastructure for a team yet, but the instinct should be there
• Comfort vibe-coding small scripts (Python, SQL, Apps Script) for reconciliations, data pulls, and automation. You're not expected to architect systems — you are expected to write the small things that save you and the team hours
• Strong execution habits — careful, organized, finishes what you start
• Strong written and verbal communication — you can write a clean reconciliation memo, ask a clear question, and explain a variance to a non-finance ops leader without losing them
• High integrity, high ownership, low ego
• Prior experience supporting a first external audit
• SaaS or AI startup accounting experience
• Working knowledge of NetSuite, Rillet, FloQast, BlackLine, Ramp, or similar tools — and reasoned views developed through use
• Exposure to multi-entity / international intercompany accounting
• Experience contributing to an ERP migration or close tooling rollout. (Not expected to lead one.)

• Mental health support
• Life, STD, LTD Income Insurance Plans
• Unlimited PTO
• Parental leave
• Flexible schedule
• 12 Paid US company holidays
• Quarterly personal productivity stipend

• For candidates outside of the US, we use an Employer of Record model in many countries, which means benefits are administered locally and governed by country-specific regulations. Because of this, benefits will differ by region — in some cases international employees receive benefits US employees do not, and vice versa. As we scale, we will continue to evaluate where we can create more alignment, but a 1:1 global benefits structure is not always legally or operationally possible.
