Job details

Why We Are Hiring for This Role: * As we scale robot production, purchase order volume across components, tooling, and vendors is growing faster than our finance team can keep up with manually. * We need dedicated ownership of the purchasing-to-payment cycle so hardware sourcing doesn't stall on paperwork, approvals, or missing documentation. * Our expanding vendor and supplier base requires consistent, accurate accounts payable processing to protect payment terms, credit standing, and supplier trust. * Monthly and quarterly financial reconciliation has grown too time-consuming for our current team to handle alongside higher-level finance work. * We need someone to own day-to-day general accounting tasks so senior finance staff can focus on forecasting, fundraising support, and strategic planning. * This is a foundational hire — the processes and habits this person builds now will scale with the company as headcount and spend grow. What Kind of Person We Are Looking For: * 1–3 years of experience in accounting, accounts payable, or purchasing (internship or full-time) — this is a junior-level role and we will train on our specific systems and workflows. * Highly detail-oriented, with the discipline to handle a high volume of transactions, invoices, and POs without letting things fall through the cracks. * Proficient in Excel or Google Sheets; experience with accounting or purchasing software (e.g., QuickBooks, NetSuite, Bill.com, Procurify) is a plus but not required. * Understands, or is eager to quickly learn, the PO lifecycle, three-way matching, and end-to-end AP workflows. * Thrives in a fast-paced startup environment where processes are still being built, priorities can shift, and ownership matters more than titles. * A clear, proactive communicator who can work cross-functionally with engineering, operations, and outside vendors and suppliers. * Genuinely curious about hardware and robotics supply chains — someone who wants to understand what they're purchasing and why, not just process paperwork. * Trustworthy and discreet when handling sensitive financial data and vendor information. * Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field preferred, or equivalent hands-on experience. Benefits We provide market standard benefits (health, vision, dental, 401k, etc.). Join us for the culture and the mission, not for the benefits. Salary The annual compensation is expected to be between $65,000 - $80,000. Exact compensation may vary based on skills, experience, and location.
