We are a remote, globally connected company with headquarters in Chicago and Cologne, and we believe in giving you the autonomy to do your best work. If you love variety, problem-solving, and working independently while still being part of a tight-knit team, this could be the perfect role for you!

• Self-motivation and ownership—you’re proactive, detail-oriented, and organized.
• Experience with Microsoft D365 F&O is a plus.
• Prior finance-related experience is a plus, but we value curiosity and a willingness to learn just as much.

Your Responsibilities

• Support the month-end close process, including journal entries, general ledger reviews, and account reconciliations.
• Work with the Payment Processing team to issue customer refunds.
• Assist with sales tax exemption management using Avalara.
• Take on ad hoc projects—there’s always something new to learn and improve!
