About Basis
Basis is an AI platform built to take on accounting & finance workflows end-to-end. We combine ML and accounting expertise to build systems that do real work on behalf of our users and are in production today.
We have hit product market fit, have more demand than we can meet, and are now scaling to see out the long-term vision. We just completed a yet to be announced Series A from tier-1 investors that gives us the capital to go big, and we need to do it fast.
Why joinExtremely fast growth:
We've partnered with some of the largest accounting firms in the world, withrevenue 10x-ing over the last 5 monthsBe part of building a company:
We're scaling the team fast and the business faster, meaning there will always be more responsibility than we have people. No better place to get a ton of responsibility and ownership on day 1.World class investors:
While not yet announced, we're backed by tier-1 ML & fintech investors who are aligned on the big vision and have helped scaled many of the generational companies of past two decades. Our investors have backed OpenAI, Ramp, Stripe etc.In person & interdisciplinary:
We operate on the frontier of what's technically possible. That is why being in-person is a must. We're bringing together the brightest minds from the top engineering, ML, and accounting teams to work together in our NYC office and build production quality agentic systems.High risk:
We believe the world is about to change in profound ways. We are building Basis to be on the cutting-edge of that change for a decade to come, and we have an appetite for the risk that comes with that. The journey has just begun.Compensation:
We pay 50% percentile cash and 90% percentile equity because the whole team is all-in, and we want you to be too.Location : NYC, Flatiron office. In-person team.
About the role
Accounting post-Basis looks different. You will be part of a specialized team that will lead the charge into the new reality.
You will work closely with Basis' customers at the cross section of go-to-market, product, implementation, and engineering to understand problems and transform accounting workflows.
The key to success on this team is being able to see around corners and think about how accounting processes should evolve in an AI world - rather than limiting to what they are today.
This requires a clear conception of what the fundamentals of accounting consist of, an ability to quickly understand disparate workflows, and the vision to redefine current process.
What we look for
Command of accounting : Quick to understand a wide variety of accounting workflows and help customers problem-solveProcess-oriented : Skilled at breaking down complex problems into clear and repeatable steps and managing executionStrong communicator:
Clear at explaining concepts and comfortable collaborating with both senior and junior stakeholdersFirst principles reasoner:
Basis is not a normal company; we are building net-new capabilities and assumptions need to be questioned. We look for people who do not just know what things have worked before, but can apply those lessons to new situationsCompany-builder:
Excited to lay the groundwork, technically and culturally, as we rapidly scaleExcited about AI in accounting:
Excited about the possibilities of how AI can transform accounting practices.Office lover:
Prefers shouting across a room over a slack message ,
seeking full-time in-office in NYCAll-in:
This is not a 9-5, we have a massive opportunity ahead of us and are looking to further accelerate our velocity. We are optimizing for the best folks and happy to compensate generously
