Job description

About 1X

We're building humanoid robots that work in home - doing the chores, handling the tasks, and giving people their time back. Simple, but it's not.

To do this right, we have to solve robotics, AI, manufacturing - at the same time, at scale, in a form factor that has to be safe enough to live with your family. If you're inspired by this, you'll thrive here. We've been at this since 2014 and we're at the point where the hard problems are behind us and the hard work is in front of us.

NEO is our flagship - a home robot designed to move, learn, and operate in the real world alongside real people. We're not demoing it - we're shipping it. We're excited to meet you, if this excites you.

If you've spent your career working on problems that matter and want to see them actually reach the world - this is that moment. We're scaling, we're hiring with intention, and we need people who want to build something that will genuinely change how humans spend their time - safely creating abundance for all.

About the Team

Finance funds and tracks everything it takes to put NEO in the world: research, manufacturing, and a global supply chain. The team gives leadership and the Board an accurate picture of where money goes and what it buys. As 1X moves from building robots to shipping them at scale, that picture has to be right every month.

Your Charter

The mission of this role is to build the accounting, systems, and controls 1X needs to operate to public-company standards. You report to the Chief Financial Officer and lead accounting across our US and international entities. You own the close, the ERP, and the audit. When the Board, auditors, or public-market investors look at our numbers, they trust them on the first read.

Key Outcomes

• Deliver an accurate, on-time month-end close across all entities, including consolidation, revenue recognition, and equity accounting.

• Lead the selection and end-to-end implementation of a scalable ERP (such as NetSuite), moving 1X off legacy systems and connecting billing, payroll, inventory, and procurement to one financial core.

• Build the accounting policies and internal controls that produce clean external audits, meet public-company reporting standards, and support tax and international compliance.

• Deliver clear financial reporting and technical accounting guidance to the executive team and the Board of Directors.

• Build and lead a global accounting team across our US headquarters and international entities, using automation and AI tools so the team scales faster than its headcount.

Key Competencies

• Technical depth: expert in US GAAP, multi-entity consolidation, revenue recognition, and corporate tax structures.

• Systems builder: designs processes and systems that still work at ten times today's volume.

• Team builder: hires, develops, and holds a distributed team to a high standard.

• Clear communicator: turns financial data into plain, actionable messages for leaders outside finance.

• Speed with discipline: keeps controls tight without slowing the company down.

Minimum Requirements

• 12+ years of progressive accounting and finance leadership, including time as Controller or VP Finance at a high-growth venture-backed company or a public technology company.

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance and an active CPA license.

• Proven track record of leading at least one end-to-end ERP implementation (NetSuite, Workday, SAP, or comparable) in a high-growth environment.

• Expert-level knowledge of US GAAP, multi-entity international consolidation, and corporate tax structures.

• Experience managing distributed accounting teams across multiple countries.

• Proven track record of scaling a finance function through major funding milestones such as Series B and later rounds or debt facilities.

• Demonstrated ability to turn complex financial data into clear, actionable messages for the executive team, the Board, and leaders outside finance.

Preferred Skills

• Experience with equity administration and stock-based compensation accounting in Carta, in partnership with HR and Legal.

• Exposure to automation and AI tools in accounting workflows.

• Experience in building SOX-ready controls or public-company reporting processes.

What does a successful 1X Team Member look like

Team members at 1X who thrive here are builders. They move fast, own their work completely, and treat time like it's the one thing you can't get back - because it is. They say what they mean, finish what they start, and hold themselves to a standard before anyone has to ask. We push each other to be better, and we do it with honesty and respect.

Compensation Range

$320,000 - $335,000 + Equity

Benefits

• Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage

• Generous paid time off, company holidays, and parental leave

• 401(k) plan with company match (100% on the first 3% of contributions, 50% on the next 2%)

• Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) and Health Savings Accounts (HSA) options

• Commuter benefits (transit and parking)

• Short-term and long-term disability, and life insurance

• Employee Assistance Program (EAP) for mental health, financial, and personal support

• Onsite snacks and catered lunches
