Controller

About Us:

Spreedly is the Intelligent Payments Platform for businesses that want to own their payments strategy. Founded in 2007 and headquartered in Durham, NC, we give merchants, platforms, and fintechs a single API to connect to 150+ payment gateways and 40+ payment methods across 100+ countries, along with the intelligence to decide where every transaction should go. We're vendor-agnostic by design. Our customers choose their providers, keep their payment data portable, and never have to rebuild their stack to adopt something new.

Payments are getting more complex, not less. Every new market, payment method, fraud tool, and now every AI agent checking out on a shopper's behalf adds another integration and another decision. Spreedly turns that complexity into an advantage. Our PCI Level 1 vault keeps cards and network tokens portable across providers. Smart routing and retries recover revenue lost to avoidable declines. Fraud and 3DS tools plug in with a single API call. And our payments intelligence turns transaction data into decisions merchants can act on. As agentic commerce moves from experiment to real sales channel, we're building the infrastructure that lets merchants accept agent-initiated payments through the providers they already trust.

For the people who work here, that means hard technical problems at real scale, billions of dollars in annual transactions, at a moment when the rules of commerce are being rewritten. If you want ownership and work that shows up directly in your customers' revenue, you'll fit right in.  

About the Role:

Spreedly is looking for a Controller to lead our accounting function and help build a more automated, scalable operating environment. Reporting to the VP of Finance, you'll own accounting across the business while partnering closely with FP&A and cross-functional leaders.

This is an opportunity for an experienced accounting leader who wants meaningful autonomy, enjoys solving complex problems, and knows what great systems and processes look like. Our usage-based model — including contracts with commitments, overages, and usage billed in arrears — creates accounting challenges beyond those found in a typical SaaS environment. You'll be the steward of our finance systems, including NetSuite, Orb, and Ramp, and a driving force behind modernizing how the accounting function runs, including where automation and AI tools can remove manual work.

Responsibilities:

• Lead the accounting function, with responsibility for accurate books and a timely, consistent close
• Oversee core accounting areas including financial statements, accounts receivable, accounts payable, payroll, revenue recognition, treasury, tax, and audit
• Own and improve the accounting systems stack, including NetSuite, Orb, and Ramp, ensuring data integrity across integrations
