Job DescriptionAccountant / Bookkeeper — US Entities (Multi-Entity) | Growth Path to Team Lead

NIMPORTANT — THIS IS AN EMAIL-ONLY APPLICATION

NDO NOT APPLY THROUGH LINKEDIN.

NTo be considered, you must email your CV AND answer the two questions at the bottom of this posting to:

[email protected]

NSubject line: Accountant Application

NLinkedIn applications will NOT be reviewed.

NWe are specifically looking for someone with hands-on experience doing accounting/bookkeeping for US entities. Please do not apply if your experience is primarily Indian accounting (Tally/GST/etc.) without significant US accounting experience.

N--------------------------------------------

NLocation: Ahmedabad (remote to start)

NExperience: 3–8 years

NEmployment type: Full-time

NShift: 1:30 PM – 10:30 PM IST (Mon–Fri), giving daily overlap with US Pacific business hours

NCTC: ₹7,00,000 – ₹10,00,000 per annum, commensurate with US accounting experience

NAbout the Role

nWe're a small, founder-led group of related companies based in the USA. We're looking for an experienced accountant to take genuine ownership of the books across those entities — not just process transactions, but maintain a clean, defensible set of records that stands up to a CPA's review and a tax filing.

NYou will be the finance function. There is no one above you doing the work — we need someone who catches problems before we do and tells us about them.

NAs entity count and transaction volume increase, so does the scope — including standardizing processes across companies and eventually building and overseeing a small team. We're hiring for the long term, not for a gap.

NWhat You'll Own

n

n




- Full-cycle bookkeeping across multiple related entities — AP, AR, bank and credit-card reconciliations
N
- Intercompany transactions: recording transfers, maintaining due-to / due-from balances between entities, and keeping both sides reconciled and documented
N
- Bill pay execution through our approval workflow (you prepare and code;

the founder approves and releases)

N
- Receivables tracking and follow-up on ageing
N
- Month-end close and financial statement preparation for each entity
N
- Flagging what looks wrong — mis-codings, missing documentation, balances that don't tie — rather than just closing the month
N
- Coordinating with our US CPA at close and at year-end
N
- Over time: writing SOPs, standardizing the chart of accounts across entities, and training junior support
N

nWhat We're LookingFor

NEssential

n

n
- 3+ years doing bookkeeping or accounting for US-based clients or entities — this is the primary requirement
N
- Hands-on QuickBooks Online experience (not just Tally)
N
- Working knowledge of USGAAP and US small-business accounting practice
N
- Experience with multi-entity or group structures — you've maintained intercompany balances before and can explain how
N
- CA, CA Inter (semi-qualified), CMA, or B.Com/M.Com with equivalent practical experience — we care more about your US client experience than your credential
N




- Genuinely self-directed;

comfortable owning the close calendar without being chased

N
- Explicit written English —most of our communication is asynchronous
N

nNice to have

n

N
- Prior experience at a US-focused accounting KPO or outsourcing firm
N
- Bill.Com, Ramp, Gusto, or similar workflow tools
N
- Payroll experience
n
- US: 1099 preparation, sales tax nexus, S-corp / partnership basics
N
- Familiarity with agency/marketing services, financial services, or real-estate holding entities
N

nWhat's on Offer

N

n
- ₹7,00,000 – ₹10,00,000 PA, reviewed as scope grows
N
- Direct access to the founder — no layers, no bureaucracy
N
- Real growth path: this role expands into a senior finance position with team responsibility as the group grows
N
- Fully remote to start, then Hybrid from Ahmedabad
N

nHow to Apply

nWe receive a high volume of applications and want to spend our time on people who are actually a fit. Instead of a cover letter, please answer both questions below.

N

n
- You're handling the books for three related companies and notice a $12,000 expense was booked under the wrong company. Walk us through how you'd fix it, and what you'd put in place to prevent it from happening again.
N
- Briefly describe one thing about US accounting practice that differs from Indian practice and that you had to learn on the job.
N

n3–5 sentences eachis plenty.
