The posting

ABOUT THE TEAM

Our Finance team keeps Sift's financial operations accurate, controlled, and ready to scale as the business grows. We own the month-end close, financial reporting, and the systems and processes behind them, and we partner closely with FP&A, Revenue, and business teams across the company to make sure the numbers tell the right story.

ABOUT THE ROLE

We're looking for a detail-oriented Staff Accountant to join our Accounting team. This role supports AP, core general ledger, close, and compliance activities and is a strong growth path toward a Senior Accountant position.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

- Prepare and post journal entries for non-revenue areas such as prepaid expenses, accruals, fixed assets, and intercompany transactions.

- Perform monthly balance sheet reconciliations for assigned accounts (cash, prepaids, accrued liabilities, fixed assets, etc.) and resolve reconciling items in a timely manner.

- Support the monthly, quarterly, and annual close process, ensuring deadlines and accuracy standards are met.

- Post daily cash transactions and perform bank reconciliations, researching and resolving discrepancies in a timely manner.

- Assist with fixed asset accounting, including additions, disposals, and depreciation schedules.

- Own accounts payable end to end and support expense-related accounting as needed.

- Help maintain and improve internal controls and documentation.

- Assist with the preparation of schedules and support for external audits and internal reviews.

- Identify opportunities to streamline and automate recurring accounting processes.

- Experience leveraging and customizing AI/LLM tools (e.g., Gemenia, Claude) for day-to-day work, and general fluency with AI-assisted workflows.

- Partner cross-functionally with FP&A and other Accounting team members on ad hoc requests and analysis.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

- Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field.

- 4–6 years of relevant accounting experience (public accounting or industry).

- Solid understanding of US GAAP and general ledger accounting.

- Experience with international accounting and IFRS reporting standards is a plus.

- Experience with ERP/accounting systems (e.g., NetSuite, Oracle, SAP) and strong Excel skills.

- Experience with Expense Software (e.g., Navan, Expensify, Brex).

- Experience with Tax Software (e.g., Avalara, Anrok).

- Strong attention to detail and a commitment to accuracy in a fast-paced environment.

- Good communication skills and ability to collaborate across teams.

- Self-starter who takes ownership and is eager to grow into a Senior Accountant role.

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.
