About the Role - Controller

Peak Energy is accelerating the transition to clean, reliable energy through advanced energy storage systems. We are seeking a Controller to be the first dedicated accounting leader at Peak and build our finance infrastructure from the ground up. This role will be hands-on in the near term — taking ownership of the close process, supporting our ERP implementation, and preparing for our initial financial audit — while also laying the foundation for a scalable, best-in-class accounting organization.

The ideal candidate is a technically strong, process-minded accounting leader who thrives in fast-growing, entrepreneurial environments and is motivated by the opportunity to design and own the accounting function end to end.

  • Build the Accounting Function Establish internal accounting operations previously managed by external providers, including general ledger, AP/AR, payroll, and reconciliations.

Manage the company’s first external audit process, establishing documentation standards and audit-ready controls. Develop and maintain chart of accounts, closing checklists, and standard reporting templates.

Partner cross-functionally with Operations, Supply Chain, and Engineering to ensure accounting and operational data flow seamlessly. Create systems for tracking inventory, fixed assets, and capital project spend in coordination with other departments.
  • Capital Expenditure & Project Accounting Implement processes for capital purchases, including purchase order review, asset capitalization, and depreciation policies. Work with the project development and operations teams to ensure accurate accounting for construction-in-progress, intercompany allocations, and project costs. Support FP&A and leadership in translating financial results into actionable insights.
  • Team & Growth Build and lead a small but high-performing accounting team over time as the company scales. Mentor and develop future team members while maintaining a hands-on approach in the early stages. Continuously identify opportunities to improve efficiency, visibility, and control across financial operations.

What You'll Bring (Qualifications)

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field; CPA required.
  • 7+ years of progressive accounting experience, including experience in-house at a growing company.
  • Deep understanding of U.S. GAAP and internal control design.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
