Accountant

🌐 Who We Are

Bankjoy is a Y Combinator and Bessemer Venture Partner backed FinTech startup. We are changing the way community banks and credit unions do business, enabling them to become tech-driven and digital first. Bankjoy provides modern digital banking products including mobile banking, online banking, online account opening, loan origination, and conversational AI. Our mission is to revolutionize banking tech infrastructure by leading digital transformation at financial institutions — big and small.

💼 The Role

We are seeking a hands-on Senior Accountant to own day-to-day accounting operations for a US-headquartered fintech with a Canadian entity. Reporting directly to the COO, this role owns accounts receivable and accounts payable, the monthly close across multiple entities, the US multi-state sales tax function, and the annual financial statement audit.

This is a sole-contributor role with full functional ownership. You will be the only accountant in the business, working directly with the COO, and partnering with Sales and Client Success to get billing right at the source. You will have the autonomy to run the function your way and the responsibility to document how it runs.

The ideal candidate is resourceful and self-directed: someone who pulls the numbers they need from Salesforce and signed contracts, goes directly to the person who closed the deal, and brings the COO decisions rather than questions.

🧠 What You'll Do

Revenue, Billing & Accounts Receivable

• Own the monthly billing cycle end to end: recurring SaaS subscriptions, implementation fees, expansion and upsell items, and third-party passthroughs.

• Interpret signed client contracts to determine correct billing, including minimums, tiered unit pricing, annual escalators, passthrough treatment, and go-live timing.

• Source billing inputs independently from Salesforce, contract files, and the Sales or Client Success owner who closed the deal.

• Reconcile third-party vendor invoices against amounts rebilled to clients, and investigate variances before they reach the client.

• Own AR collections: aging review, client follow-up, and timely escalation of at-risk balances.

• Prepare invoices for COO review and release.

Accounts Payable

• Own AP intake, vendor coding, and entry; maintain written vendor-to-GL coding standards.

• Prepare payment runs for COO approval and manage vendor relationships, statements, and billing disputes.
