• Address audit findings, implement remediation measures, strengthen internal accounting processes, and maintain audit-ready documentation.
• Support regulatory examinations, inquiries, and reporting requirements in collaboration with Legal and Compliance teams.
• Technical Accounting & Complex Transactions: Act as a key technical accounting resource across the organization, researching and evaluating complex and non-routine transactions under US GAAP.
• Prepare technical accounting memoranda outlining relevant accounting guidance, conclusions, and potential financial statement impacts.
• Advise Finance and business leadership on the accounting implications of new products, strategic initiatives, contracts, and complex commercial arrangements.
• Assess technical accounting matters involving revenue recognition, equity transactions, investments, business combinations, digital assets, and emerging financial reporting topics.

Requirements:

• At least 8 years of progressive accounting experience, ideally combining public accounting and complex corporate accounting environments.
• Strong knowledge of US GAAP, technical accounting research, and financial reporting standards.
• Proven experience managing month-end and quarter-end closing processes, preparing financial statements, and coordinating external financial audits.
• Previous experience in cryptocurrency, digital assets, fintech, financial services, or other environments involving complex financial transactions.
• Ability to independently research, evaluate, and document complex accounting matters and translate technical conclusions into practical recommendations.
• Experience designing, implementing, and improving accounting processes, procedures, and internal control frameworks.
• Strong project management and organizational skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities and collaborate across different departments.

• Additional advantages: CPA qualification combined with Big Four or national public accounting firm experience and industry exposure.
• Direct experience with cryptocurrency accounting, including digital asset transactions, reconciliations, custody arrangements, and associated reporting requirements.
• Experience supporting regulated financial institutions or cryptocurrency-related businesses.
