You’ll make sure our finances are accurate, our people are supported, and important administrative, legal, and operational work gets handled with urgency.\nThis is a hands-on role for someone who takes pride in knowing where every dollar went, notices when something is wrong, and follows through until it is fixed. Finance and bookkeeping will be the foundation of the role, with additional ownership across people operations, office management, recruiting coordination, and executive operations.\nYou do not need to be a CFO, CPA, lawyer, or HR executive. You do need to understand what you know, recognize what you don’t, and exercise good judgment about when to bring in an expert. You’ll work with external accountants, legal counsel, and other specialists, but you will remain accountable for the quality and completion of the work.\nWhat you’ll own\nFinance and accounting operations\nMaintain accurate books and ensure every transaction is properly categorized and reconciled\n\nManage accounts payable, reimbursements, payroll coordination, invoicing, and financial records\n\nKnow where the company’s money is going and quickly investigate discrepancies\n\nMaintain our financial model with support from fractional finance experts when needed\n\nCoordinate with our outsourced accounting firm, CPA, and tax advisors\n\nPrepare reliable financial information for the founders and help them understand cash, spend, and tradeoffs\n\nBuild lightweight controls and processes that keep the company compliant without slowing it down\n\nPeople operations\nOwn day-to-day HR administration, including onboarding, offboarding, payroll, benefits, and employee records\n\nOperate systems such as Rippling, Gusto, or similar platforms\n\nMake sure employees receive timely, thoughtful support when they have questions or problems\n\nCoordinate with external experts on compensation, compliance, and employment matters\n\nHelp introduce more structured people programs as the company grows\n\nLegal and business operations\nCoordinate contracts, insurance, registrations, compliance deadlines, and other corporate administration\n\nDevelop sound judgment about what can be handled internally and what should be routed to legal counsel\n\nWork effectively with lawyers while managing cost and avoiding unnecessary risk\n\nMaintain organized records and ensure important deadlines and commitments do not get missed\n\nApproach AI-generated legal or financial guidance cautiously and verify important decisions with qualified experts\n\nOffice and executive operations\nHelp manage the office and create an environment where the team can do its best work\n\nSupport the founders with high-priority administrative and operational projects\n\nCoordinate vendors, events, scheduling, travel, and other company needs\n\nHelp with recruiting coordination and candidate experience when needed\n\nIdentify operational gaps and take ownership without waiting for detailed instructions\n\nWhat we’re looking for\nExperience in finance, accounting, bookkeeping, or business operations, ideally followed by work at an early-stage technology company\n\nHands-on experience with payroll and HR administration\n\nExperience with at least one accounting system, such as QuickBooks, Xero, or NetSuite\n\nExperience with a people platform such as Rippling, Gusto, or Workday\n\nExceptional attention to detail-you are the kind of person who will investigate a $5 discrepancy\n\nA strong sense of urgency and a low tolerance for important tasks being dropped\n\nGood judgment about when to solve something yourself and when to involve a CPA, lawyer, or other specialist\n\nA genuine desire to support people and make the company work better for them\n\nCuriosity and the ability to learn unfamiliar areas quickly\n\nStrong prioritization skills: you ask how important a problem is, what it will cost, and what tradeoffs the company is willing to make\n\nComfort working across finance, HR, legal coordination, office management, and executive operations\n\nYou may be a particularly good fit if\nYou began your career in finance or accounting and later moved into broader startup operations\n\nYou are currently an exceptional executive assistant, finance manager, or operations lead who has naturally become the person everyone relies on\n\nYou care about both the numbers and the people behind them\n\nYou enjoy being the “squeaky wheel” who makes sure work actually gets completed\n\nYou want broad ownership inside a young company and are willing to stay close to the details\n\nWhat success looks like\nOur books are accurate, current, and explainable\n\nLeadership has a reliable view of cash, spending, and financial tradeoffs\n\nPayroll, benefits, invoices, and compliance deadlines are handled correctly and on time\n\nEmployees know where to go for operational help and trust that their questions will be resolved\n\nExternal accountants, lawyers, and consultants are used thoughtfully, while ownership remains internal\n\nImportant work does not fall through the cracks","description_format":"text","description_chars":5072,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["LLM
