Description

About Alembic Alembic is solving one of AI's defining challenges: proving cause and effect in proprietary enterprise data at scale. While generic models converge in capability, we're building the systems that process private corporate data to answer questions ChatGPT cannot—connecting marketing exposure to revenue, operations to outcomes, strategy to results. Our customers include Nvidia, Delta Air Lines, Mars, and leading Fortune 500 companies making multi-million dollar decisions with our platform. The technical demands were so extreme we literally melted GPUs building this, which is why we're now operating one of the world's fastest private supercomputers. Backed by $145M from Prysm Capital, Accenture, WndrCo, Silver Lake Waterman, and others, we're scaling the team redefining enterprise competitive advantage in the age of AI. About the Role We're looking for an Accounting Manager to help build and scale our finance operations as we put $145M in fresh capital to work. You'll partner directly with our CFO to establish the systems, processes, and controls that support our growth from 50+ employees to the next stage. This role is perfect for someone who wants significant ownership over accounting operations at a rapidly scaling startup with complex enterprise deals. What You'll Do Own day-to-day accounting operations including month-end close, AP/AR, reconciliations, and financial reporting Build and refine accounting processes and internal controls as we scale Handle complex revenue recognition for multi-year enterprise contracts and platform licensing deals Partner with the CFO on financial planning, budgeting, and strategic initiatives Support the transition from outsourced bookkeeping to fully internal finance operations Prepare for external audits and establish audit-ready processes Lay groundwork for international expansion accounting requirements Must-Haves 4-8 years of accounting experience, including public accounting background (Big 4 or equivalent strongly preferred) Deep understanding of GAAP, revenue recognition (ASC 606), and financial controls Experience with complex B2B SaaS or enterprise software revenue models Strong systems aptitude (NetSuite, Excel/Google Sheets, modern finance stack) Proven ability to build processes from scratch in fast-growing environments CPA or CPA-track preferred Comfort with ambiguity and ability to operate independently Why You Might Be Excited Direct partnership with CFO to build finance function from the ground up with significant autonomy Steward $145M in capital deployment while establishing systems for the next phase of growth Complex, interesting accounting: multi-year enterprise deals, platform licensing, international expansion on the horizon Real equity opportunity at a Series B company with proven traction and Fortune 100 customers Fast-paced environment where your work directly impacts company trajectory Why You Might Not Be Excited You prefer fully built-out finance teams with established processes over building systems from scratch You want to specialize in one narrow area rather than touching all aspects of accounting operations You're looking for a predictable 9-5 role at a mature company rather than the dynamic pace of a scaling startup
