At Infinity, we partner with world-class builders to turn contrarian ideas into enduring companies.
We’re not an incubator. We’re not a VC fund. We’re a holding company designed from the ground up to identify overlooked opportunities, pair them with unfair advantages (distribution, data, infrastructure, capital), and recruit exceptional founders to build generational businesses around them.
We’re assembling a cohort of founders who are ready to go deep—on hard problems, in weird markets, with the patience and clarity to build things that last.
We are seeking an experienced Accounting lead who will independently own and manage all accounting operations for our holding company and portfolio entities. This role requires deep expertise in US GAAP, the ability to establish and maintain accounting infrastructure across multiple entities, and comfort operating with high autonomy in a fast-paced environment.
Oversee all accounting operations for the holding company and portfolio entities, ensuring full compliance with US GAAP
Prepare and deliver timely, accurate consolidated financial statements (monthly, quarterly, and annual)
Manage all aspects of the month-end, quarter-end, and year-end close processes
Establish and maintain robust internal controls and accounting policies across all entities
Coordinate external audits and manage relationships with external auditors and tax advisors
Maintain separate books and records for the holding company and each portfolio entity
Manage intercompany transactions, eliminations, and consolidation processes
Develop and implement accounting procedures tailored to different business models and stages
Track equity ownership structures, cap tables, and investment valuations
Support new entity formation from an accounting infrastructure perspective
Research and apply appropriate US GAAP treatment for complex transactions including equity compensation, revenue recognition, R&D capitalization, and business combinations
Evaluate and implement accounting policies for emerging AI business models
Provide technical accounting guidance to leadership on strategic decisions
Navigate accounting for venture investments, convertible instruments, and equity transactions
Own the entire accounting tech stack including GL, AP/AR, expense management, and reporting tools
Design and implement scalable processes and systems to support growth
Manage cash management, treasury operations, and assist with banking relationships
Oversee accounts payable, accounts receivable, and assist with the payroll processes
Build and document comprehensive accounting procedures and workflows
Serve as a trusted advisor to leadership on financial matters
Partner with Head of Finance and FP&A on budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis
Support fundraising activities with clean financials and due diligence responses
Provide financial insights to inform strategic decisions across portfolio companies
Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field (CPA strongly preferred)
8+ years of progressive accounting experience with at least 3 years in a senior or leadership role
Deep expertise in US GAAP with demonstrated ability to research and apply complex accounting standards
Experience with multi-entity consolidations and holding company structures
Background in venture-backed or high-growth technology environments
Expert knowledge of US GAAP, particularly ASC 606 (Revenue), ASC 718 (Stock Compensation), and ASC 810 (Consolidation)
Proficiency with modern accounting software and ERP systems (QuickBooks, NetSuite, Xero, or similar)
Advanced Excel/Google Sheets skills for analysis and reporting
Experience implementing and optimizing accounting technology stack
Familiarity with venture studio, holding company, or private equity accounting preferred
Independence: Proven ability to run an accounting function autonomously with minimal oversight
Ownership mentality: Takes full responsibility for accuracy, timeliness, and continuous improvement
Versatility: Comfortable handling everything from technical accounting to operational execution
Problem-solving: Creative and resourceful in navigating ambiguity and novel situations
Communication: Ability to translate complex accounting concepts for non-finance stakeholders
Adaptability: Thrives in dynamic, fast-paced environments with evolving priorities
The ideal candidate is a hands-on accounting leader who has "been there, done that" in venture-backed environments. You're comfortable being the most senior accounting person in the organization, don't need a large team to be effective, and take pride in building clean, scalable processes. You enjoy the intellectual challenge of complex accounting problems and the operational satisfaction of running a tight ship. You understand that in a venture studio, every day brings something different, and you're energized by that variety.
Opportunity to build and shape the accounting function from the ground up
Exposure to cutting-edge AI business models and technologies
High degree of autonomy and ownership
Direct partnership with senior leadership and head of finance
Competitive compensation, remote first, flexible working hours and arrangement
