Why We Are Hiring for This Role:
- As we scale robot production, purchase order volume across components, tooling, and vendors is growing faster than our finance team can keep up with manually.
- We need dedicated ownership of the purchasing-to-payment cycle so hardware sourcing doesn't stall on paperwork, approvals, or missing documentation.
- Our expanding vendor and supplier base requires consistent, accurate accounts payable processing to protect payment terms, credit standing, and supplier trust.
- Monthly and quarterly financial reconciliation has grown too time-consuming for our current team to handle alongside higher-level finance work.
- We need someone to own day-to-day general accounting tasks so senior finance staff can focus on forecasting, fundraising support, and strategic planning.
- This is a foundational hire — the processes and habits this person builds now will scale with the company as headcount and spend grow.
What Kind of Person We Are Looking For:
- 1–3 years of experience in accounting, accounts payable, or purchasing (internship or full time) — this is a junior-level role and we will train on our specific systems and workflows.
- Highly detail-oriented, with the discipline to handle a high volume of transactions, invoices,
and POs without letting things fall through the cracks.
- Proficient in Excel or Google Sheets; experience with accounting or purchasing software (e.g., QuickBooks, NetSuite, Bill.com, Procurify) is a plus but not required.
- Understands, or is eager to quickly learn, the PO lifecycle, three-way matching, and end-to-end AP workflows.
- Thrives in a fast-paced startup environment where processes are still being built, priorities can shift, and ownership matters more than titles.
- A clear, proactive communicator who can work cross-functionally with engineering, operations, and outside vendors and suppliers.
- Genuinely curious about hardware and robotics supply chains — someone who wants to understand what they're purchasing and why, not just process paperwork.
- Trustworthy and discreet when handling sensitive financial data and vendor information.
- Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field preferred, or equivalent hands-on experience.
Benefits
We provide market standard benefits (health, vision, dental, 401k, etc.). Join us for the culture and the mission, not for the benefits.
