Remote Senior Accountant jobs – Full‑Time Finance Leader & Accounting Lead in Hudson, Ohio – Senior‑Level Remote Role Managing SAP, QuickBooks, NetSuite & Power BI, $95k‑$115k Salary Range, Flexible Hours

TITLE: Remote Senior Accountant jobs – Full‑Time Finance Leader & Accounting Lead in Hudson, Ohio – Senior‑Level Remote Role Managing SAP, QuickBooks, NetSuite & Power BI, $95k‑$115k Salary Range, Flexible Hours --- We’re a five‑year‑old, boot‑strapped fintech start‑up that grew from a single‑person spreadsheet operation to a $45 million ARR business serving over 200 small‑business clients across the United States. Our CFO, Maya, remembers the night she pulled an all‑nighter to reconcile a batch of payroll taxes that threatened to delay a major client onboarding. That moment taught us the value of a senior accounting partner who can see the whole picture while diving into the details – and it’s why we’re opening a Remote Senior Accountant position today.

Why this role exists now

Over the past 12 months, our revenue mix shifted 30 % toward subscription‑based services, which introduced new revenue recognition rules under ASC 606 and required tighter month‑end close cycles. Our existing accounting team of three analysts is now handling a 45 % increase in transaction volume, and we need a seasoned finance leader to design, coach, and own the end‑to‑end accounting process. The role will be the bridge between our product engineers in Hudson, Ohio, our remote sales crew, and the external audit firm that will review our FY 2025 statements.
