About DataStealth

DataStealth is a single, unified AI data security platform (DSP) that discovers, classifies, and protects sensitive data across your entire environment — from on-premise to legacy systems to cloud. Wherever your data lives or flows, we protect it using the latest technologies and AI. We do this without requiring complex integrations or changes to your existing applications, ensuring security that enables, rather than hinders, your business. By seamlessly applying data protection strategies such as tokenization, we ensure that even if your perimeter is breached, your data remains unusable if it falls into the wrong hands.

Recognized for the fifth consecutive year as a Great Place to Work, we are one of the world's leading and fastest growing cybersecurity software companies. Our patented technology gives our large enterprise customers a paradigm-shifting way to solve the data security problems that legacy approaches cannot.

Role Overview:

We're looking for a detail-driven Bookkeeper/Accountant to take ownership of our day-to-day financial operations and help keep our finances accurate, organized, and audit-ready.

You'll keep a close eye on corporate card expenses, digital subscriptions, and travel reimbursements, and support the month-end close through journal entries, accruals, deferred revenue, and financial reporting.

Beyond the numbers, you'll be a guardian of data integrity — maintaining clean digital filing systems and ensuring our financial records are always ready for tax preparation and auditing. Just as importantly, you'll bring an automation mindset: helping us identify and roll out AI and automation tools (like AP automation and receipt scanning) that streamline our finance workflows and cut down on manual work.

You'll thrive in this role if you bring a Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field, a solid understanding of core accounting concepts (debits and credits, accrual accounting, and financial statement preparation), and hands-on experience with QuickBooks and advanced Excel. We're looking for someone with at least an internship or three years of accounting experience, exceptional attention to detail, strong problem-solving skills, and the adaptability to thrive in a fast-paced environment. Progress toward a CPA designation is a definite asset.
