## About Firework

Join Firework – Where Innovation Meets Impact

Firework is redefining the future of commerce as an AI and video commerce company — combining cutting-edge technology, an exclusive network of enterprise brands and retailers, and a first-mover position to win the agentic commerce race.

We've built the world's most advanced and largest video commerce platform, trusted by global brands and leading retailers. But we're more than software — our compounding network effect grows stronger with every partner we add, bringing the energy of in-store experiences online and transforming how businesses engage, convert, and build lasting customer relationships at scale.

Having raised over $235M to date, led by investors such as SoftBank Vision Fund 2, and operating at global scale, we offer unparalleled opportunities to solve complex challenges and drive meaningful impact in the future of connected commerce.

If you're curious, ambitious, and energized by big ideas — Firework is the place to grow, lead, and shape what comes next. Together.

Summary

We are looking for a highly technical, hands-on Senior Accounting Manager to own the core accounting infrastructure of a growing, global, post-Series B company.

This person will lead the company through a rigorous GAAP close, consolidation, revenue recognition, reporting, audit, payroll partnership, finance administration, and accounting systems environment. The role requires someone who can operate at both the technical and operational level: able to work through complex accounting questions, improve financial systems, develop a strong team, and continuously increase the leverage of the finance organization through automation, AI, clear standards, and scalable processes.

We intentionally operate with a lean finance organization. Success in this role will not come from adding layers or headcount. It will come from building better operators, stronger systems, cleaner processes, and a finance function that can scale significantly without becoming unnecessarily complex. This is ideal for a high-potential manager who aspires to learn, lead, and grow their career into a future finance leader.

## What you’ll be doing

- Own the monthly, quarterly, and annual close, driving a disciplined, accurate, and increasingly efficient GAAP close process

- Lead global consolidation across multiple legal entities, currencies, and jurisdictions, including intercompany accounting and eliminations

- Own advanced and technical accounting matters, including revenue recognition, complex transactions, accounting policy, and GAAP interpretation

- Own preparation and review of internal and external financial reporting, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and timely delivery

- Lead the evolution of the company’s accounting systems, integrations, and financial data architecture, reducing manual processes and improving control and visibility

- Partner closely with People Operations on global payroll, ensuring accurate accounting, reconciliations, controls, and coordination across payroll providers and entities

- Oversee core finance administration, including banking, treasury administration, entity support, expense and vendor processes, accounting documentation, and related operational workflows

- Lead the company’s external financial statement audit, managing audit readiness, supporting schedules, technical accounting documentation, and auditor relationships

- Establish and maintain accounting policies, procedures, controls, and documentation appropriate for a growing global organization

- Partner with business leaders to ensure financial reporting accurately reflects business performance and supports decision-making

- Proactively identify financial, accounting, systems, and process risks and resolve issues before they create downstream problems

- Lead a deliberately lean finance organization, developing direct reports into stronger operators and increasing team capability through systems, automation, standards, and clear ownership rather than relying primarily on additional headcount

We’ll be excited if you have

- Active CPA required

- 8+ years of progressive accounting experience, with significant experience owning close, consolidation, reporting, and technical accounting

- Deep knowledge of the U.S. GAAP and demonstrated ability to independently research and resolve complex accounting matters

- Prior experience in a post-Series B or later-stage, high-growth technology company

- Experience working with global entities, multi-entity consolidation, intercompany transactions, and international accounting operations

- Strong experience with revenue recognition and other advanced accounting topics relevant to a SaaS or technology business

- Demonstrated ownership of annual external audits and audit readiness

- Strong understanding of accounting systems, ERP environments, integrations, and financial data flows

- Highly technical and AI-savvy, with a track record of using automation and technology to materially improve finance operations

- Experience partnering with People Operations on payroll, ideally across multiple countries or payroll providers

- Experience managing and developing accounting professionals in a lean operating environment.

- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with exceptional attention to detail

- Ability to move fluidly between strategic issues, technical accounting, systems architecture, and hands-on execution

- Comfortable operating in an environment where processes are still evolving and where leaders are expected to build rather than inherit fully mature infrastructure

- Ability to work U.S. business hours

Location

The role is remote based in India. Preference will be given to Mumbai or Bangalore based candidates.

Don’t hold back

We understand some candidates may see the above and not apply because they don’t meet all the qualifications. We encourage you to apply anyway; we often find talented candidates that fit many other opportunities we have and look for potential too, not just what you did in the past.  As an equal employment opportunity employer, we are a diverse team that strives for an inclusive environment for all. We prohibit discrimination and harassment of any kind based on race, color, sex, religion, sexual orientation, national origin, age, disability, genetic information, pregnancy, or any other protected characteristic as outlined by federal, state, or local laws.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed (private company)

## Competitive Advantages

- **Diversity & inclusion as a growth lever**: The "Don't Hold Back" initiative with "clear, actionable goals" to champion D&I across all levels and functions.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: The team describes itself as "lifelong learners, creators, entrepreneurs, storytellers, and data geeks" — a builder-led, fast-moving environment at the intersection of media, AI, and commerce.
- **Flexibility**: Hybrid and fully remote roles available; remote positions span India, the Philippines, Bulgaria, and Romania — reflecting a "decentralized is our ethos" operating philosophy.
- **Executive access**: Leadership includes industry veterans across operations, business development, and people functions; a small-enough org that individual contributors can have direct impact.
- **Diversity**: "We are a diverse team where everyone belongs. At Firework, we care about who you are, not where you come from" — backed by the formal Don't Hold Back D&I initiative.
- **Notable roles currently open** (10+ visible): Staff Frontend/Backend Software Engineers, Sr. Customer Success Manager, Digital Showroom Hosts (English, French, German), AI Livestream Specialists (multiple regions), Sr. Enterprise Account Executive (HK/Greater China), and Account Executives.
