Your mission

We are looking for a Senior Controller with deep experience in Web3, crypto, or fintech to drive financial strategy, financial planning & analysis and operational excellence across our global entity structure. You will oversee both fiat and crypto financial operations, guide the development of scalable accounting processes, coordinate tax and regulatory compliance across multiple jurisdictions, and deliver high-quality internal and external reporting. In this role, you'll manage traditional accounting functions while also helping define best practices for crypto‑treasury management, on‑chain/off‑chain reconciliation, and token‑related financial operations. You’ll work closely with founders, legal and senior leadership to shape the company’s financial vision as we scale. We are seeking someone who also understands the complexities of digital assets, cross‑border entity structures, crypto regulatory requirements, and evolving tax frameworks in the Web3 ecosystem.

What You’ll Do

• Oversee accounting operations across both fiat and crypto transactions, ensuring accurate financial processes, reconciliations, and reporting.
• Partner with founders and senior leadership to build a Finance function capable of supporting high‑growth, multi‑jurisdictional Web3 operations.
• Lead treasury management, including stablecoin and token treasury operations, cash and crypto reconciliation, payroll, vendor payments, and invoice management.
• Support FP&A initiatives across the US, Singapore, and other global entities, including modeling for token‑related revenue, incentives or ecosystem spend.
• Manage cash flow, working capital, custodial relationships and company audits, including audits that involve digital asset holdings.
• Prepare and review financial statements and reporting packages, ensuring accuracy across both on‑chain and off‑chain financial data.
• Oversee financial regulatory compliance, including crypto‑specific requirements such as custody frameworks, travel‑rule‑aligned processes, and digital asset tax treatment.
• Build and maintain relationships with banks, custodians, liquidity providers and crypto‑native financial partners (e.g., exchanges, OTC desks, payment processors).
• Implement internal controls and compliance processes that meet both traditional accounting standards and the unique needs of digital assets.

What You’ll Bring

• Strong analytical, finance, and planning skills with the ability to work across fiat and crypto financial models.
• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance or a related field.
• 5-7+ years of experience as a Controller or equivalent accounting/finance role.
• Experience operating within a global corporate structure, preferably with exposure to transfer pricing, multi‑entity coordination or cross‑border taxation.
• Prior crypto, blockchain, or digital asset experience is strongly preferred (e.g., crypto accounting, digital asset reconciliation, token ecosystems, DAO structures).
• Ability to read, analyze, and interpret financial reports, technical token documentation, and legal contracts.

Your Perks & Benefits

• Competitive Pay: Top‑tier compensation in the industry.
• Generous PTO: Unlimited vacation.
• Full Benefits: Comprehensive packages tailored by country.
• Technology & Learning Allowances: 3,000 USD for your first‑year setup.
• No manager 1:1s and no bullshit meetings
