Who you are:
We’re looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. If you meet these requirements, you are encouraged to apply. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.
Minimum requirements:
• 7+ years of relevant public accounting and/or industry experience in accounting
• B.A. or B.S degree in Accounting or Finance (CPA strongly preferred)
• Fluency in U.S. GAAP and ability to research complex accounting issues with a focus in ASC 606
• Excellent communication and organizational skills, both written and verbal, with ability to convey financial concepts to both financial and non-financial audiences
• Strong knowledge of Excel and experience working with large data sets, often coming from multiple sources
• Demonstrated experience partnering with cross-functional stakeholders
• Experience with internal controls (design, implementation and execution)
• Demonstrated history of taking on various types of challenging projects and producing results, with excellent attention to detail
• Solution-oriented mindset with enthusiasm for establishing best practices, and challenging existing processes to identify improvement opportunities
Preferred qualifications:

In-office expectations
Office-assigned Stripes in most of our locations are currently expected to spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users. This expectation may vary depending on role, team and location. For example, Stripes in our Bucharest, Romania site have an 80% in-office expectation, and those in Stripe Delivery Center roles in Mexico City, Mexico and Bengalaru, India work 100% from the office. Also, some teams have greater in-office attendance requirements, to appropriately support our users and workflows, which the hiring manager will discuss. This approach helps strike a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility when possible.
Pay and benefits
Stripe does not yet include pay ranges in job postings in every country. Stripe strongly values pay transparency and is working toward pay transparency globally.
