Job summary

Coram AI is seeking a Controller to own the entire accounting function and partner with the Head of Finance. This player-coach role starts hands-on, closing monthly books for US/UK/India, then building a team over 12–18 months, with a focus on an AI-first, automated transactional layer.

You'll lead audits, tax, consolidations, and multi-entity close, while shaping a modern, scalable accounting organization as we scale toward Series C.

Qualifications

• 7+ years of progressive accounting experience, or an Accounting Manager/Assistant Controller ready to step up into a full controllership.
• Experience independently owned a month-end close, handling real revenue recognition (ASC 606). This seat cannot be someone's first time doing any of the three
• Hardware experience required; you have done the accounting for a company that ships physical product, so inventory, COGS, and hardware revenue and bundling are familiar ground, not a learning curve
• A strong technical accountant: hands-on with US GAAP, revenue recognition (ASC 606) and consolidations, ideally also leases (842), stock-based comp (718), and capitalized software
• Audit experience, internal or external
• Experience owning or heavily contributing to a multi-entity month-end close and consolidations
• Experience selecting and implementing an ERP is a plus. We will graduate off QuickBooks as we scale
• Experience building and managing a team
• AI-forward and genuinely AI-pilled: already using automation and AI in accounting, with a point of view on how a modern accounting org should be built
• Multi-entity or international experience (UK/India), and a high-growth startup background
• Resilient in challenging and fast-paced environments
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills in English, with the ability to influence at all levels
• Ability to work in an onsite environment

Responsibilities

• Own the books across all entities (US, UK, India), month-end close and consolidations, technical accounting (606, 842, 718), revenue, COGS and inventory, and internal controls
• Run and complete Coram's external audit
• Manage the tax, statutory, and specialist work
• Manage and grow the accounting team
