Full Job Description

Why Join Giga The Pace: We're building at a speed most companies talk about but never actually operate at. If you've been bored somewhere else, you won't be here. The Impact: Every person at Giga touches the work that matters. No layers, no waiting for approval chains. You'll see your fingerprints on what we ship. The Team: A team of operators defining the future of AI infrastructure. We recruit A-players from the most innovative companies in the world, and they choose Giga because the work here means more. The Moment: AI doesn't run without power, and that's us. Giga is the picks and shovels behind the AI revolution. This industry is about to explode, and you'll be in the room where it's already happening. What you'll do As the Corporate Controller at Giga, you will own the financial integrity of a company at the center of the AI infrastructure boom. This is not a steady-state accounting role — it's a critical role underpinning Giga’s capital decisions, regulatory strategy, and operational scaling. You'll lead an accounting team through the complexity of multi-entity consolidations, the technical accounting demands of a high-growth business, and support Giga’s mission critical finance team as it raises debt and equity capital to build out proprietary AI infrastructure. If you want to build something that matters and leave a fingerprint on how a category-defining company manages its financial foundation, this is your role. Where you'll work We are an in-office culture — velocity matters when you're building physical infrastructure, and the best decisions happen in the room. This role is ideally based in our San Francisco, Long Beach, or Houston offices, with full-time onsite expectations outside of bi-weekly WFH Fridays. That said, we will make exceptions for truly exceptional talent if you live outside one of our hubs. If you're the right person for this role, we'll have a conversation about what works. Responsibilities Own all aspects of technical accounting, incl
