About the role
job description
Reset Tech is looking for a Staff Accountant to bring our accounting function in-house for the first time. Rather than stepping into an established system, you will be the one selecting the accounting software we use and designing the processes, standards, and controls that our 501(c)(3) and 501(c)(4) entities will run on for years to come. Working closely with our Head of Finance and Operations and Chief Operating Officer, you will own the day-to-day accounting operations, drive month- and year-end close, and ensure our books are accurate, audit-ready, and built to scale.
This is not a role for someone looking to maintain the status quo. It is a builder role for a mid-level accountant who asks good questions, takes initiative, and finds genuine satisfaction in bringing order and rigour to complexity. If you thrive on variety, care deeply about getting the details right, and want your work to have a lasting organisational impact, this may be the role for you.
The role is 100% FTE. It is fully remote, with the option to work from our centrally-located DC office.

- Manage and process accounts payable and employee reimbursements; ensure proper coding to entity, program, and function
