At Tribe, we're on a mission to help enterprises realize the value of AI for their business. Every large enterprise wants to use AI to transform how they operate — but many don't have the capabilities to do it. That gap is our opportunity.
We're an AI-native services company that helps enterprises build and deploy best-in-class AI products that deliver real business impact.
You'll own our accounting function end to end: the monthly close, revenue recognition, client billing, and financial reporting. You'll be the person who does accounting at Tribe — a role we're carving out so the close gets faster and cleaner as we scale. You'll partner closely with our account GMs, our People team, and our external auditors and tax advisors.
Own the monthly close
Run the full close: bank and card reconciliations, accruals, prepaids, depreciation, and balance sheet reconciliations
Book stock-based compensation, lease entries (ASC 842), and FX revaluation on foreign balances
Own the close calendar, review journal entries, and keep shortening the close
Revenue and billing
Own revenue recognition and the deferred revenue rollforward under ASC 606 for our project-based client work
Issue client invoices on contract schedules and run a monthly review with account leads to confirm billable amounts, milestones, and hours
Resolve invoicing exceptions — milestone slips, change orders, holdbacks — and review new contracts for billing and rev-rec treatment
Manage AR and follow up on aged balances
Payroll, contractors and compensation
Run bi-weekly payroll across our US and international entities plus external contractors, and record the resulting journals
Review and pay our monthly external contractor roster, and onboard new contractors — W-9 and W-8BEN collection, payment setup, and the records that feed year-end filing
Calculate and process quarterly sales commissions with GTM, including plan interpretation, split calls and payment through payroll
Calculate and process quarterly bonuses
Own 401(k) administration — bi-weekly deferral funding, annual compliance testing, and Form 5500 with our plan provider
AP and spend
Run weekly payment runs and keep vendor spend flowing cleanly into the ledger
Review major vendor invoices for prepaid vs. expense treatment
Administer our corporate card and expense platform — issue cards for new hires and review expense reimbursements against policy
Manage corporate mail and registered-agent correspondence, escalating tax and legal notices
Equity administration
Issue new-hire stock grants and prepare board consents
Process terminations, share repurchases and option exercises
Track 83(b) elections and ISO/NSO status

Reporting, audit, and compliance

Manage our annual audit end to end — auditor relationship, PBC schedules, and the first-year opening balance sheet
Issue annual 1099, W-2 and 1042-S forms, including foreign contractor reporting
Own the annual tax return package and manage the relationship with our tax advisor
Own the compliance calendar: quarterly federal and state estimated tax payments, Delaware franchise tax, state registrations and secretary of state filings
Maintain the chart of accounts and run periodic access reviews across our finance systems
5–8 years of progressive accounting experience; you've owned a month-end close end to end, ideally at a fast-growing company
Hands-on ASC 606 experience with services or project-based revenue (time & materials, milestones, deferred revenue)
Working knowledge of ASC 842 and stock-based compensation accounting
Experience with multi-country payroll accounting and multi-currency balances
You've run payroll end to end and are comfortable owning equity and benefits administration
Fluency with modern cloud accounting/ERP systems (think NetSuite or Sage Intacct tier) and spend-management tools
CPA or a public accounting foundation is a plus
You use AI tools in your daily work and want to push what a modern finance function looks like — we're an AI company and expect the same fluency internally
You build process where there is none, document as you go, and communicate clearly with non-finance partners
Join at an inflection point — we're in hyperscale mode on every dimension of the business, and the accounting function is yours to build as it scales.
Your work lands on the desks that matter — the monthly package you produce goes straight to the CEO
We're profitable — the growth you'll be accounting for is funded by the business itself. For a finance person, that's the rare seat where the fundamentals match the pitch.
