Accounting Manager

Rockstar is recruiting for a venture-backed proptech company that is redefining how homeowners unlock value in their biggest asset. By connecting renovation with financing and selling, the client creates new ways to buy, sell, and build real wealth. The company moves fast, challenges broken systems, and holds a high bar for clarity and outcomes. This is an opportunity to join a high-growth, VC-backed business where ownership is real and impact is visible.

Why This Role Exists

The company is scaling fast, and finance has to scale with the business, not behind it. It grew from approximately $50M last year and is on pace for approximately $100M this year, which means the complexity, volume, and importance of its accounting operation is increasing quickly. The company needs someone who can bring rigor to the numbers while also helping build the systems, workflows, and automation that will support the next stage of growth.

This role is for an accounting leader who wants to be in the middle of the business, not sitting on the sidelines closing the books. The person will work across Finance, Operations, Product, and Engineering to improve how financial data moves through the company, strengthen controls, automate repetitive work, and give leadership better visibility into the business. The company wants someone technically strong, high-energy, resourceful, and AI-native: someone who can run clean accounting today while helping design a smarter finance function for tomorrow.
