Senior Accountant

Assured
Palo Alto, CA Full Time
POSTED ON 12/10/2025 CLOSED ON 1/21/2026

What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Accountant position at Assured?

Assured is on a mission to modernize insurance. Claims processing (i.e. should we pay this claim?), while often overlooked, is the foundation of the entire industry. It’s currently highly manual, involving phone calls, faxes, and gut instinct, costing tens of billions of dollars a year. We can do better.

At Assured, we provide large insurers with the software solutions they need to win in a modern, technology-driven world. From self-service claim-filing software to backend fraud detection, we’re the engine that powers claims processing for some of the largest insurers in the world.

The challenges we face are deep and diverse, from creating digital experiences that provide comfort and clarity to claimants at their most stressed and vulnerable to orchestrating large-scale ML-driven decision-making on billions of dollars of claims payments, life at Assured is dynamic, collaborative, and rewarding.

We’re growing fast and we’re looking for a driven, detail-obsessed Senior Accountant to help keep our financial engine running smoothly. You’ll be a key player in ensuring accurate reporting, operational efficiency, and compliance across our business. If you thrive in a collaborative, high-growth environment where you can make an impact every day, we’d love to meet you.

What You’ll Do

💳 Process transactions and reimbursements through Ramp, ensuring accurate coding and ERP synchronization.

🧾 Review and process invoices weekly for timely payment and proper documentation.

📊 Manage prepaid expenses, maintain accuracy, oversee reporting, and keep software vendor tracking up to date.

📝 Post payroll entries with correct allocations and perform reconciliations on schedule.

🏦 Perform monthly bank reconciliations to maintain clean, accurate financial records.

📑 Own monthly balance sheet reconciliations, resolving discrepancies proactively.

💵 Process AR payments and reconcile outstanding balances.

⚖️ Coordinate with third-party providers to ensure compliance with U.S. federal and state HR, tax, and labor laws.

📬 Handle incoming mail and inquiries with professionalism and efficiency.

🧮 Respond to payroll tax questions and partner with tax authorities to ensure compliance.

(This role will evolve as we grow; flexibility and curiosity are key!)
