About this role
ABOUT HYPHENATE
At Hyphenate, we’re building AI agents purpose-built for accounting teams at high-growth and enterprise companies. We automate and orchestrate high-effort accounting & financial reporting – helping teams get work done 10x faster with fewer manual excel juggling and audit-ready accuracy.
Under the hood, Hyphenate layers verifiable, AI sub-ledgers on top of existing ERPs to deliver reliable automation without requiring system migration.
We’ve raised one of the largest seed rounds in the accounting category from tier-1 VCs and experienced CFOs and Controllers who believe accounting automation must be accurate, audit-ready, and built by people who understand real close environments.
Hyphenate is built by accountants and engineers working together – not generic, black-box automation.
ABOUT THE ROLE
Hyphenate is hiring an Accounting Solutions Consultant to sit at the intersection of accounting operations, customer workflow discovery, and solution implementation.
This is a hybrid role by design. You will be deeply involved in pre-sale discovery of a company’s current accounting processes, and you will also help translate our AI agents into a production-ready solution. At our stage, the same person must understand both what it actually takes to close the books correctly & how to map and explain AI-driven automation to real accounting workflows – and this role owns that bridge.
This role is built for someone who has lived in the trenches of accounting operations – as a Controller, Accounting Manager, or Senior GL Accountant – and then made the deliberate move into the technology side: joining a solutions, implementation, or pre-sales team at a finance/accounting technology company. You understand the pain because you’ve felt it, and you understand the technology because you’ve helped deliver it.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
- Pre-Sale Accounting Discovery
- Partner with Account Executives to understand customers’ end-to-end GL and sub-ledger workflows, not just surface-level processes
- Lead accounting-focused discovery sessions with Controllers, Accounting Managers, and Finance leaders
- Evaluate ERP configurations, close processes, and accounting policies to determine:
- What workflows can be automated cleanly
- What requires configuration or sequencing
- What should be explicitly out of scope
- Define the minimum set of data access or accounting artifacts (e.g., NetSuite access, reconciliations, schedules) required to confidently scope functionality and pricing
- Help shape solution design and pricing by balancing accounting accuracy, controls, and delivery feasibility
- Solution Design & Customer Implementation
- Translate real-world accounting workflows into practical, automated solutions using Hyphenate
- Configure Hyphenate to align with customer accounting policies, ERP structures, and close controls
- Support pilots and early implementations with a strong focus on:
- Accuracy
- Reconciliation integrity
- Audit readiness
- Partner with Engineering and Accounting team to clarify accounting logic, edge cases, and expected outputs
- Ensure what was established in pre-sale discovery is delivered correctly in production
- Product & Internal Impact
- Act as the accounting authority internally, collaborating with Product and Engineering to influence roadmap decisions
- Surface recurring accounting patterns, edge cases, and constraints observed across customers
- Help define discovery, scoping, and implementation playbooks as Hyphenate scales
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
The Ideal Background
- 7–10+ years of combined experience across accounting operations and technology/solutions roles
- You started your career in hands-on accounting – as a Controller, Accounting Manager, Senior Accountant, or similar – and have lived through complex month-end and quarter-end closes
- You then transitioned into a solutions, implementation, or pre-sales role at an ERP, close management, or accounting technology company (e.g., Workday, NetSuite, Sage Intacct, BlackLine, FloQast, Workiva or similar)
- You can speak fluently to both the accounting detail and the technology that supports it
Technical & Domain Skills
- Hands-on experience with multiple enterprise ERP systems, ideally at least a couple of:
- NetSuite
- Sage Intacct
- Microsoft Dynamics 365
- Oracle Fusion
- Experience working with close management tools such as FloQast or BlackLine
- Practical exposure to sub-ledgers such as
- Revenue recognition
- Fixed assets
- Prepaids / amortization
- Accruals & more
- Strong understanding of accounting controls and audit considerations
- Advanced Excel skills (large datasets, reconciliations, pivots, complex formulas)
Working Style
- Comfortable leading discovery and demo sessions with Controllers, Accounting Managers, and Finance leaders
- Able to make clear judgment calls when working with incomplete or messy data
- Enjoy working at the intersection of accounting and technology, and thrive in early-stage environments
Nice to Haves
- Big-4 or public accounting audit experience
- CPA or equivalent certification
- Experience scoping or delivering accounting automation projects
WHY HYPHENATE
- Join a founding team building the next generation of accounting agentic automation
- Apply deep accounting experience to shape how AI is used in real finance teams
- Work closely with Sales, Product, and Engineering – your judgment directly impacts deals and delivery
- Compensation is top-decile: competitive base salary, meaningful equity, and performance-based bonus
- As Hyphenate scales, this role can grow into a senior leadership position across Solutions, Delivery, or Product – depending on your strengths and interests.
WHAT THIS ROLE IS NOT
- Not a traditional accounting manager position
This is a judgment-heavy accounting role for someone who wants to influence how accounting automation is scoped and delivered – without compromising accuracy or auditability.
