About the role
Senior Accounting Manager at Polymarket responsible for the close process, technical accounting, and building scalable controls and systems to support rapid growth in a crypto-enabled, high-volume environment.
Responsibilities
- Own the monthly, quarterly, and annual close process end to end, including GL operations, journal entries, reconciliations, and balance sheet reviews, hitting deadlines consistently under US GAAP.
- Research and document technical accounting positions across complex areas including revenue recognition (ASC 606), business combinations (ASC 805), and internal-use software (ASC 350-40), and communicate conclusions clearly to executives and non-accountants.
- Lead the financial reporting process, support external audits, and build the internal controls framework as the company scales.
- Manage intercompany accounting and consolidated financials across domestic and international entities as we expand globally.
- Scope and implement accounting systems that improve speed, accuracy, and scalability, including ERP tools and automation.
- Partner with legal, product, and business development on new initiatives including product launches, monetization changes, and M&A activity, advising on accounting implications from the start.
- Define and document accounting policies for crypto-native platform activity, a genuinely new area where you'll be setting precedent rather than following playbooks.
Qualifications

- 8 to 10 or more years of progressive accounting experience, with direct exposure to both high-growth private companies and public company environments.
- 3 or more years of Big 4 public accounting experience, strongly preferred.
- Deep technical GAAP knowledge with demonstrated ability to research complex accounting topics, write clear memos, and explain conclusions to a non-accounting audience.
- Experience leading a close process in a high-transaction-volume environment with a track record of hitting deadlines without sacrificing accuracy.
- Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance.
- Comfort working in modern finance tools. Familiarity with systems like Ramp, Brex, or a modern ERP is expected. Interest in learning new tools quickly is required.
- Strong Excel skills. You need to be able to build and own models, not just read them.
- (Plus) Direct experience with crypto accounting or digital asset platforms.
- (Plus) SQL skills or willingness to learn. We will teach you if you're close.
- (Plus) Experience with international accounting, multi-entity consolidations, or M&A transactions.
