Engineering Manager

At Rillet, we’re changing the way high-growth companies make financial decisions. Our goal is to make zero day close a reality. No more reporting 10 days after quarter end, report day ZERO. Rillet is a next-gen accounting platform purpose built to automate end-to-end accounting workflows. In practical terms, information from CRM, billing, AP, payroll, etc. is synced instantaneously with Rillet, and 93% of journal entries are booked without human intervention. CEO, CFO, and finance teams can finally focus on making impactful financial decisions, while leaving Rillet run the numbers.
