ABOUT POLYGON LABS Polygon Labs is a global blockchain payments company building and operating infrastructure to move money instantly, reliably, and at internet scale, with the mission to move all money onchain. It is building the Polygon Open Money Stack, an open and integrated stack of services and technologies to instantly and reliably move money anywhere, and put it to work. Its infrastructure has facilitated trillions of dollars in onchain value transfer and supported millions of transactions daily for some of the globe's largest banks, fintechs, enterprises, and consumer applications. YOUR ROLE Polygon Labs is heading into its first-year audit with a multi-entity, multi-jurisdiction structure and a new cap table. This is not a maintenance role: the accounting function needs a leader who can drive historical remediation to completion, enforce close discipline, and take the company through a clean GAAS audit opinion, all while building the controls and processes that support a public-company reporting standard. You will report directly to the CFO and lead the accounting team (a Senior Accounting Manager and Senior Accountants) through the most consequential finance build in the company's history. If you do this well, the path leads to Principal Accounting Officer of a public company within three years. YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES - Lead the first-year GAAS audit end to end: direct the team through remediation of historical balances, prepare audit-ready opening balances and supporting schedules, and drive the engagement to a clean opinion on deadline, with a PCAOB-readiness mindset throughout. - Own the monthly and quarterly close calendar across the multi-entity structure: enforce timeline discipline, direct multi-currency consolidation and intercompany eliminations, and ensure every sub-function (Treasury, Payroll, AP/AR, FinOps) delivers accounting-ready inputs before close, not after. - Serve as the company's authoritative voice on U.S. GAAP: write and own technical accounting memos referencing applicable ASC guidance, take defensible positions under audit scrutiny, and codify accounting policies and procedures across the group. - Own equity and stock-compensation accounting (cap table, ASC 718) and related disclosures; coordinate PFIC reporting for U.S. investors in foreign structures, partnering with the Tax Director and external tax advisors to deliver PFIC Annual Information Statements and QEF support on time. - Use Claude to draft and iterate on technical accounting memos, build automated close workflows with structured reminders and sub-function checklists, and validate that outputs from Treasury, Payroll, AP/AR, and FinOps are accounting-ready before close, reducing manual follow-up and compressing the close cycle. - Build and maintain NetSuite workflows, month-end close automation, and reconciliation automation in coordination with FinOps; both build simple automations directly and direct the team on more complex integrations. - Manage external auditors and advisors (Big 4 or national firm) to scope, quality, and timeline: you drive their schedule, not the other way around. - Build and deliver board reporting packages; own the external auditor and advisory relationships as the designated PAO-track leader. - Lead and develop the accounting team: set the standard for technical accuracy, operational discipline, and audit-ready deliverables, and pull the team forward rather than simply reviewing their output. WHAT YOU'LL NEED - Active U.S. CPA license, required: this role is the designated Principal Accounting Officer track for the company. - A Big 4 or national firm audit foundation followed by industry controllership experience in a complex, multi-entity structure: you have personally led a first-year or initial audit, including directing a team through historical remediation to a clean opinion, not just participated in one. - U.S. GAAP technical depth across equity and stock-compe
