# Accounting Consultant (Founding Team) - New York

Maximor AI

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 customer facing roles in Public Accounting/Technical Advisory as well as faced month end close challenges in Private Accounting.

WHAT YOU’LL DO
1. 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
2. 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
3. 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 accounting experience (either of Public + Private Accounting, Technical advisory + Private Accounting or Private Accounting + Solutions)
• 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 (ASC 606)
• 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 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.
