Accounting Manager
DensityAI • Mountain View, CA • Full Time • $150,000–$210,000 / year
Posted on Sun, Sep 27, 2026
About the Role
This is a hands-on, generalist accounting role at a fast-scaling AI-hardware company, and our first dedicated accounting hire. Reporting to the Controller, you will work across the full accounting cycle — from journal entries to reconciliations and reporting schedules. You will prepare the work across AP, T&E, payroll and lease accounting, fixed assets, and the general ledger. It suits someone who wants range and wants to see how a complete accounting function gets built. The ideal candidate combines solid accounting fundamentals with a builder’s mindset.What You’ll Do
Month-End Close and General Accounting
- Prepare month-end and quarter-end close activities — journal entries, accruals, prepaids, and amortization schedules
- Prepare balance sheet reconciliations and month-over-month flux analysis, with clear written explanations of drivers for the Controller
- Prepare payroll accounting and lease accounting entries and their supporting schedules
- Prepare fixed asset accounting — capitalization, depreciation, and asset verification per accounting policies
- Prepare accounting for hardware-specific areas alongside the Controller — lab and tooling spend, mask set costs, NRE and prepaid arrangements, and multi-currency transactions and revaluation
Accounts Payable and Credit cards
- Manage the AP cycle in Ramp — invoice intake, coding, approval routing, three-way match against POs and receipts, and payment runs
- Partner with Supply Chain and Procurement on PO matching, receipts, and invoice discrepancies — and be the person who chases them down
- Serve as the primary contact for vendor inquiries and payment status, and keep those relationships smooth
- Prepare 1099 filings and the supporting vendor documentation
- Support the travel and expense program: expense report review, corporate card , policy compliance, and employee support
- Prepare T&E accruals and card reconciliations, and flag policy exceptions to the Controller
Audit, Controls and Systems
- Prepare audit-ready workpapers and supporting schedules, and be a key contributor to the year-end audit and financial statement preparation
- Follow and help strengthen the internal control environment, and help build processes that scale with the growth and complexity of the business
- Collaborate with the Controller on the chart of accounts, accounting policies, and documented desktop procedures, and help keep them current as the business changes
What We’re Looking For
- 5+ years of progressive accounting experience, including hands-on accounts payable and month-end close, ideally at a high-growth company
- Working knowledge of US GAAP, and comfort preparing reconciliations and schedules that stand up to review
- Hands-on with an ERP or accounting system (NetSuite, QuickBooks, or equivalent) and the surrounding stack (Ramp, Rippling, Bill.com, Navan, Expensify, or similar)
- Strong Excel skills and comfort reconciling high transaction volume accurately
- Detail-oriented and organized, with ownership of your close deadlines
- Practical interest in applying AI and automation to accounting work
- (Optional) CPA, CPA-track, or public accounting experience
- (Optional) Hardware, manufacturing, or semiconductor industry background
Full compensation packages are based on candidate experience and relevant certifications.
