Corporate Controller
About Hashgraph:
Hashgraph is a fast-growing software company committed to supporting, developing and servicing Hedera, an open source, proof-of-stake platform. Hedera is EVM-compatible and has been specifically built to meet the needs of enterprise and web3 applications, which require speed, security, stability and sustainability. Hedera’s public network is governed by industry-leading organizations, spanning 11 sectors and 14 regions who oversee the development and direction of the decentralized platform.
Why this role exists:
We are hiring a Corporate Controller to help advance our mission by:
Building the accounting infrastructure, controls, and reporting rigor that let Hashgraph scale with confidence, across a global, contractor-heavy workforce, an enterprise customer base, and a balance sheet that includes digital assets most controllers have never had to account for.
This role exists to ensure that our financial close, controls, and reporting are audit-ready and scalable as we grow from Stage 1 to Stage 2, giving leadership, investors, and council partners confidence in the numbers behind the network.
In this role, you will:
Own the monthly and quarterly close process end-to-end, including consolidation across entities, and drive it toward a defined, repeatable timeline.
Design and implement right-sized internal controls (approval workflows, reconciliations, segregation of duties) appropriate for our current stage; built to scale, not gold-plated.
Own technical accounting for digital asset transactions, including HBAR treasury holdings and ecosystem incentive programs, in line with emerging GAAP guidance.
Manage the external audit relationship and PBC process, acting as the primary point of contact for our auditors.
Oversee AP, AR, payroll accounting, and revenue recognition, including a global, contractor-heavy workforce spanning multiple countries and currencies.
Partner with Head of Finance on cash management, treasury policy for digital assets, and board and investor reporting.
What success looks like in 6-12 months:
The close cycle runs on a defined, documented timeline with a repeatable checklist the team can execute against.
We complete our audit cycle with a clean opinion and no material weaknesses identified.
A documented accounting policy exists for digital asset treasury holdings and token-related transactions.
Core internal controls are implemented and operating, not just designed on paper.
What you bring:
Core capabilities:
8+ years of progressive accounting and controllership experience, some of it within Big 4, including having led a close process from end to end.
A track record of building or scaling finance infrastructure at a high-growth startup in a comparable stage of maturity.
Deep GAAP expertise with hands-on multi-entity consolidation experience.
Experience owning external audit relationships and PBC processes.
A systems and process builder's mindset where you're comfortable creating structure from ambiguity, not just operating within one that already exists.
Experience with NetSuite or Sage ERP.
Functional expertise:
Technical accounting experience with digital assets or cryptocurrency (e.g., ASC 350-60 or comparable emerging guidance) strongly preferred.
Experience with global contractor and EOR payroll structures across multiple currencies.
ERP and accounting systems implementation or migration experience.
Revenue recognition experience for enterprise or licensing contracts with non-standard terms (ASC 606).
Experience designing SOX or "SOX-lite" internal controls for a scaling organization.
Nice to haves:
An active CPA license.
Prior experience at a blockchain, digital assets, or fintech company.
Experience supporting fundraising (equity or token-based) or board reporting at a venture-backed company.
