Staff Accountant

Nucleus is seeking Staff Accountant who’s excited to roll up their sleeves, own processes, and help build a best-in-class accounting foundation.

This is not a “just post the journal entries” role. You’ll be a core part of our monthly close, help improve systems and processes, and gain exposure across the business. If you enjoy working in a fast-paced environment where things evolve quickly, you’ll thrive here.

What You Will Do

• Perform balance sheet reconciliations and keep supporting schedules clean and audit-ready

• Handle key procedural elements of the accounts payable process, including entering invoices into the accounts payable system, obtaining proper approvals, establishing proper GL coding, and triggering disbursements

• Onboard new vendors, request and store Form W-9s, and process Form 1099s

• Support revenue recognition (SaaS / ASC 606 exposure is a plus)

• Assist with customer invoicing and billing processes

• Assist with annual GAAP financial statement audits, tax return preparation, and any other outside examinations, as needed, including preparing and sending data requests

• Continuously look for ways to improve systems and procedures and initiate corrective actions.

Expectations of Your Experience

Required Qualifications:

• 1–2 years of experience in public accounting or at a tech/startup environment

• Solid understanding of U.S. GAAP

• Experience supporting month-end close

• Strong Excel skills (pivot tables, lookups, comfort with large datasets)

• Self-starter who’s comfortable with some ambiguity

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with corporate card & expense management platforms

• Experience with accounting/ERP platforms

• Experience in a SaaS or subscription-based business

• Exposure to billing, invoicing, or accounts receivable processes

Why You Should Be Excited

• 100% company-paid health, dental, vision, life, and short-term disability insurance options

• Generous 401k contribution (not a match)

• Flexible PTO + 10 company holidays

• Fantastic company culture

• Work on a truly unique, market- defining product

Salary Range: $55,000 - $70,000
