## Job description

We’ve recently begun production at our new state-of-the-art robotic homebuilding plant in partnership with several large homebuilders within the Greater Calgary Region. Powered by Promise Robotics' transformative production lines for timber-based panelized construction, the new plant enables our group of homebuilding partners to significantly increase the capacity and speed of home production within the fast-growing region of Calgary, AB.

We’re looking for a Plant Accountant to support the financial and operational accounting activities of our Calgary location. This is a hands-on role covering full-cycle accounting, month-end close, inventory and cost accounting, compliance, and procurement. You’ll work closely with Finance, Operations, and Production to maintain accurate financial records, support reporting, and continuously improve accounting processes.

What you'll do:

- Perform full-cycle accounting, including journal entries, general ledger maintenance, account reconciliations, and discrepancy resolution.
- Support monthly, quarterly, and year-end close, including accruals, prepaids, payroll entries, working papers, and financial reporting.
- Review AP and AR transactions and assist with vendor and customer reconciliations.
- Support inventory counts, reconciliations, valuation, Work-in-Progress (WIP) accounting, cost allocations, and variance analysis.
- Monitor manufacturing and project costs and support month-end inventory adjustments.
- Assist with payroll reconciliations, GST returns, regulatory filings, and external audit requests.
- Support procurement activities, including purchase orders, vendor onboarding, three-way matching, and open PO management.
- Partner with Operations and Production to support purchasing and inventory requirements.
- Identify opportunities to improve accounting processes and support ERP/system enhancements.

What you'll need to succeed:

- Diploma or bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Business Administration, or a related field.
- 3–5 years of progressive accounting experience, ideally in a manufacturing, industrial, construction, or project-based environment.
- Hands-on experience with full-cycle accounting, reconciliations, and month-end close.
- Experience with inventory, cost accounting, WIP, or manufacturing accounting is strongly preferred.
- Experience using ERP/accounting systems and strong Microsoft Excel skills.
- Strong attention to detail, analytical and problem-solving skills, and the ability to manage competing deadlines.
- Collaborative communication skills and the ability to work effectively across Finance and Operations.
- CPA designation or progress toward CPA is considered an asset.

We are proud to be an equal-opportunity workplace. We are committed to equal employment opportunity regardless of race, colour, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, and gender identity.

## About Promise Robotics

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Promise Robotics provides an AI-powered offsite construction platform that integrates robotics, software, and advanced manufacturing to help builders scale home production.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Series A)
- **Headquarters**: Toronto, Ontario, Canada
- **Founded**: 2021
- **Founders**: Ramtin Attar (CEO), Reza Nasseri (CTO)

## Core Business
- **Primary Industry**: Construction technology (PropTech / Construction Robotics)
- **Target Customers**: Homebuilders, developers, and construction firms looking to scale production via offsite manufacturing and robotic automation. B2B, primarily mid-market to enterprise.
- **Mission / Purpose**: To enable the building industry to harness automation toward producing more affordable and sustainable housing.

## Products & Services
- **Factory-as-a-Service® Platform**: An integrated production platform that connects digital design, robotic production planning, factory operations, and on-site logistics. It allows builders to add scalable factory capacity without having to develop and operate the underlying technology themselves.
- **Industrial Robotic Systems**: Custom automation cells and robotic workstations for tasks such as panel assembly, framing, and material handling.
- **AI-Powered Production Software**: Cloud-based software for end-to-end lifecycle management of home production, from planning to logistics, including precise material and labor take-offs.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation**: Not publicly disclosed.
- **Total Funding**: ~$17.8M USD (including a Series A of ~$15M, Seed round, government grants, and debt financing).
- **Key Metric**: Annual Revenue reported at ~$7M (estimated, as of latest data).
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Horizons Ventures (lead Series A), Radical Ventures, PSP Investments, Relay Ventures, United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America. Named to BuiltWorlds’ Robotics Top 50 for three consecutive years (2024–2026).
- **Growth Signals**: Headcount of ~40 employees (+34.3% YoY). Won the Gold Game-Changer in the CMHC Housing Supply Challenge (2022). Recognized as one of Canada’s Proptech 30 and a CIX Top 20 startup. The company has 3 issued patents for automated assembly of building structures and is actively hiring across engineering and site roles.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Integrated Platform vs. Point Solution**: Promise Robotics combines robotics, software, and factory operations into a single turnkey platform (Factory-as-a-Service), rather than selling just robots or just software. This bundling creates higher switching costs and deeper value for customers.
- **Intelligent Workflow Orchestration**: Their AI optimizes the entire process from digital design to robotic production to site logistics, improving cost certainty and reducing waste.
- **Proven Impact**: They have a track record of delivering factory-based production capacity to homebuilders and have been validated by major industry awards, a government housing challenge win, and multiple patent grants.

## Strategic Focus
- **Scale Through Factory-as-a-Service**: Scaling the platform by partnering with more builders, enabling production ramp without requiring customers to build their own factories.
- **Deepening the AI & Robotics Stack**: Continued investment in AI developers, robotics software, and controls engineering to improve production efficiency and automation capabilities.
- **Geographic Expansion**: Operating in Canada and the United States, with plans to grow further across North America given the housing shortage.
- **Sustainability Focus**: Leveraging automation to produce highly efficient, sustainable buildings with less material waste and lower carbon footprint.

## Why Work Here
- **Mission-Driven Impact**: Employees work on directly addressing the housing crisis and climate change through automation and sustainable construction.
- **Cutting-Edge Tech Stack**: The team works with modern robotics (KUKA), AI frameworks (TensorFlow, PyTorch), simulation tools (FlexSim, AnyLogic), and cloud infrastructure (Kubernetes, Docker) — a strong environment for engineers who love hands-on hardware/software integration.
- **Growth-Oriented Culture**: High headcount growth (+34% YoY) and a small team (~40 people) suggest fast-moving, high-autonomy roles with significant ownership.
- **Collaborative & Creative Values**: The company emphasizes a “creative and innovative” culture, valuing confidence, openness, and curiosity.
- **Office Presence**: Multiple locations including Toronto (HQ) and Calgary. Roles are currently on-site for production positions (site framers, material handlers) with engineering roles likely hybrid or on-site given the hardware focus.
- **Recent Hiring Momentum**: 6 active job postings (Senior Site Framer, Production Framer, Proposal Writer, AI Developers, Robotics Software Developer, Mechanical Engineer) — they are scaling their engineering and production teams rapidly.
