Full Job Description

ABOUT WARP Warp is the AI-native Employee Management Platform for ambitious companies. Our platform includes HRIS, payroll, IT, benefits, tax compliance, and more - all built from scratch on an AI-native architecture from day 1. Warp embeds itself into every part of a company's people operating layer, we process over half a billion $ annually in payroll, on track to grow to $2B. Legacy vendors in our space built their businesses by profiting from complexity. Warp is built from day one for AI to be the primary operator, not a feature. Every advance in LLM capability widens our lead. We hire people who ship constantly, own outcomes, and care about craft. We're in the office five days a week because speed and proximity are a competitive advantage at this stage. If you want to build something that automates an entire category of core work, not just another point solution, this is the place. We've raised over $85M from top investors like Ashton Kutcher/Sound Ventures, Y Combinator, founders of Dropbox, Replit, SV Angel, and Homebrew Capital. Built by an obsessive team from MIT, Ramp, Brex, Google, Dropbox, Apple, and more. We're hiring our first Controller to own the books and financial operations of a company that moves real money every day. You'll run accounting, close, tax, and the controls a payroll and money-movement business depends on. Hands-on IC role reporting to the Head of Finance. What you'll do - Own the monthly close and keep the books clean and audit-ready. - Run accounting operations: AP, AR, billing reconciliation, and revenue recognition as we migrate billing to ACH. - Own corporate tax and compliance filings, working with our outside tax partners. - Reconcile money movement. We process tens of millions in monthly volume across multiple rails, soon including our own. The numbers tie out, every time. - Build financial controls and processes that scale from 30 to 70+ people without adding chaos. - Partner with the Head of Finance on reporting and with Ops
