About Firstbase

Tens of thousands of businesses — from newly incorporated startups to public enterprises — rely on Firstbase to streamline compliance, finance, analytics, and every part of the back office. It is one platform to run your entire company.

Our goal is to make running a business feel like magic. We make it possible by owning the general ledger and unifying data across all business functions. Compliance tasks are flagged — and often resolved — automatically. Real-time business metrics are accurate, accessible, and easy to understand. And if you need to hire a new employee, send an invoice, or file taxes, you can do it from the same interface.

We’re bundling what’s never been bundled. We’re not building an incorporation tool. We’re not building an ERP. We’re not building an "AI accountant." We are creating a new category entirely: the Company OS.

How we work

We cherish the moments when noise fades and we move with clarity, confidence, and focus — doing the right thing at the right time. These moments are when our best work happens, and we strive to create more of them.

We value craftsmanship over busyness, clarity over complexity, and resilience above all — whether it takes hard work or patience. We aim high, avoid mediocrity, and speak with fearless transparency.

We believe in accelerated career progression and take pride in growing talent from within, always preferring to promote our own before looking externally.


About the team

Reporting into the accounting Fulfillment Manager, you will manage a remote team of bookkeepers to ensure accuracy and compliance, work closely with the engineering and product team to solve day to day problems and improve processes.

You should meet the following requirements

  • Location: Remote, willing to work EST time zone.

  • 3 years Accounting experience.

  • Qualified CPA or in the process.

  • Experience in managing a team of bookkeepers.

  • Mediocrity is your enemy. You don’t stop until you get to "great." You’re relentless in pursuit of excellence.

Perks & Benefits

  • Competitive salary & equity: We offer top-of-market pay and a generous equity package — so you’re rewarded not just for your work today, but for the future you help create.

  • Generous raises & stock refreshers: Your impact deserves recognition. We review compensation quite frequently to ensure you're rewarded as your role grows — including stock refreshers so you continue to share in the upside of what we’re building together.

  • Flexible work setup: We offer the freedom to work remotely, embracing diverse work styles, while NYC-based team members can opt for a hybrid setup, spending some days in the office to foster collaboration.

  • Gear to Thrive: We provide a renewable stipend on day one and every two years to create your perfect work setup — laptops, headphones, and more. It’s about giving you the tools to do your best work.

  • Company Gatherings: We host annual retreats, quarterly in-person leadership planning, and occasional co-working days and happy hours — all fully covered to help us connect and have fun in person.

  • Vacation bonus: After 3 years at Firstbase, you'll receive a generous vacation bonus to take that dream trip. It’s our way of saying "thank you" for your commitment — we’re here for the long haul, and we want you to enjoy the ride.

  • Visa sponsorship: We support the best talent — wherever you are from. Firstbase offers visa sponsorship and renewal assistance if you are already in the US, or are looking to move to join our NYC-based team.

  • Accelerated career progression: We grow from within. When new roles open up, we look to our own team first — because we believe in recognizing potential, rewarding performance, and giving our people the opportunity to level up.

Interested?

Even if you don’t check every single box but you’re passionate about the role and want to help build something great, we still want to hear from you. We value diverse experiences and unique perspectives.
