ABOUT BASIC CAPITAL

Basic Capital is a fintech company disrupting America's $1T retirement industry by building the mortgage for retirement, unlocking market ownership, and making wealth accessible to every American. Our mission is to create products, platforms, and a credit marketplace that power a fundamentally new retirement system.

Our founding team includes leaders from Goldman Sachs, Uber, Block, Stripe, and Robinhood. We're backed by top investors such as Lux Capital, Forerunner Ventures, BoxGroup, SVAngel, Inspired Capital, and Henry Kravis. Based in Tribeca, NYC, we're assembling a lean, high-performance team committed to reducing wealth inequality. This role is optionally fully remote within the United States.

THIS ROLE

We are hiring our first Controller to own accounting, tax, and finance operations at Basic Capital. This individual will manage proprietary investments on our platform that are held through individual LLCs, specifically the annual accounting and tax requirements.

You will own accounting and tax for this portfolio: books, reconciliations, annual partnership filings, and the monthly reporting we send to lenders and capital partners. You will also support the company’s own finances, from monthly close and budgeting to AP, AR, and payments.

This is a builder role. You will set up the processes, controls, and automation that let this work scale from thousands of entities to tens of thousands, working directly with our engineering and capital markets teams.

YOU WILL

- Own accounting and administration for over 1,000 individual LLCs, including the monthly loan tape and servicing tape

- Prepare and file year-end tax returns and K-1s for every LLC

- Partner with engineering to automate accounting workflows using AI, and do deep data work to keep every entity reconciled

- Oversee corporate accounting and payments as the company grows

- Support corporate accounting and operations for Basic Capital: monthly close, budgeting and forecasting, accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll and payments

- Build the controls, policies, and audit readiness a growing financial company needs

REQUIRED COMPETENCIES

- Experience with partnership or LLC accounting, including capital accounts, allocations, and K-1s

- Hands-on experience preparing partnership returns in UltraTax CS or similar professional tax software, such as CCH Axcess Tax, CCH ProSystem fx, Lacerte, or GoSystem Tax RS

- Controller-level experience, including monthly close, budgeting, AP/AR, and financial reporting

- Strong data skills, with comfort in SQL, advanced Excel, or both

PREFERRED COMPETENCIES

- Active CPA license

- Tax experience, ideally with partnerships, funds, or multi-entity structures

- Structured finance accounting experience (e.g., securitizations, loan tapes, SPVs, or warehouse facilities)

- Experience in lending, consumer finance, or fund administration

- Experience working with engineers to build or automate financial workflows

CULTURAL FIT

- High agency: You believe the world is malleable and want to shape it to your vision.

- High tastes: You have strong opinions on what “good” looks like in your field. Craftsmanship matters.

- Friction friendly: We debate pretty hard. Friction polishes the work. You challenge and expect to be challenged. Compromise leads to mediocrity.

- Tenacity: Relentless work ethic in the face of adversity and rejection.

- Grand ambition: We’re energized by people’s dreams, for the world and for themselves. Energize us.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

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.
