Corporate Accountant

Job Title: Corporate Accountant

Company Overview:

At Diesel Laptops, we are dedicated to revolutionizing the commercial truck and off-highway vehicle repair industry. Since our inception, we have been committed to providing cutting-edge diagnostic tools, repair information, and world-class training to our clients. Our mission is to empower technicians and repair facilities with the knowledge and tools they need to efficiently diagnose and repair vehicles, ultimately reducing downtime and improving profitability. At Diesel Laptops, we pride ourselves on fostering a collaborative and innovative work environment where every team member is valued and has the opportunity to grow.

Diesel Laptops is looking for a Corporate Accountant who’s not afraid to ask “why”—and who thrives when empowered to understand the full story behind the numbers. This role is built for someone with strong technical accounting skills, but also the business acumen to see how decisions ripple across departments, systems, and financial outcomes.

If you’re energized by fast-paced environments, don’t want to be pigeonholed into one repetitive function, and care about the “how” just as much as the “what,” we want to hear from you.

What You’ll Do:

• Own the monthly close process across multiple entities, ensuring timely, GAAP-compliant results

• Prepare journal entries, reconciliations, and key schedules with speed and accuracy

• Perform variance analysis and dig into operational drivers behind fluctuations

• Partner with department heads and leadership to translate data into decisions

• Maintain and improve the general ledger, ensuring clean, audit-ready records

• Support the annual audit process, including external auditor collaboration

• Leverage ERP systems (NetSuite) and reporting tools to streamline workflows and reporting

• Participate in process improvement initiatives, cross-training, and team mentorship as needed

What You Bring:

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Finance (required); CPA preferred

• Minimum of 4 years of relevant accounting experience, preferably in industry, manufacturing, or a fast-growth company

• Strong understanding of GAAP, month-end close, financial reporting, and multi-entity environments

• Proficiency with ERP systems (NetSuite preferred), Excel (pivot tables, lookups, etc.), and modern accounting tools

• Ability to operate with precision, autonomy, and a high degree of ownership

• A genuine curiosity for the “why” behind the numbers, this is not a drop-it-in-a-box role

What You Won’t Find Here:

• Remote or hybrid work—this is an in-office role in our Columbia-area HQ

• A one-size-fits-all job description—we’ve just restructured and we’re building a high-performance team

• Government-style pace or “clock-in, clock-out” culture; we move fast and expect impact

Join a company where accounting is seen as a strategic partner, not an afterthought. Help us build the future of diagnostic technology one journal entry, one close, one insight at a time.

What We Offer:

• Competitive salary and benefits package.

• Opportunity to work with a passionate and innovative team.

• Career growth and development opportunities.

• Collaborative and dynamic work environment

• Equivalent Education Level Required: College degree in Accounting, business administration, or similar fields is required.

• Experience Required: 4-5 years’ experience in a strong accounting environment.

• Knowledge Required: Excellent written and verbal communications skills as would be needed to communicate in person, by phone, and through email; adaptability and flexibility to changing environment; and comfortable working in a dynamic, high volume, fast-paced environment. Thorough understanding of GAAP.  Ability to read, write, evaluate, and apply information. Ability to interact professionally and exhibit appropriate social skills. Ability to maintain confidential information and professional boundaries. Ability to understand and ensure compliance with policies, procedures, and laws. Ability to develop and maintain business relationships. Proficient in MS Office.

• Physical Requirements: Sitting for long periods of time; standing occasionally; walking; bending; squatting; kneeling; pushing/pulling; reaching; twisting; frequent lifting of less than 10 lbs., occasional lifting of up to 20 lbs.; typing; data entry; grasping; transferring items between hands and/or to another person or receptacle; use of office equipment to include computers.

• Travel: Available as needed with appropriate notice, but no significant travel is anticipated for this position.

• Other: Must be eligible to work in the USA. May be subject to criminal background checks.
