The Position

FullStack is currently seeking a Director of Accounting to join our finance team. In this role, you will be responsible for the integrity of the financial close, consolidation, audit, and tax compliance functions. You will be accountable for hands-on execution and cross-border team management, ensuring technical accounting excellence and independent oversight of all financial operations.

Responsibilities

Month-End Close & Consolidation

• Own the full month-end close calendar and ensure timely, accurate completion for US and Colombia entities.
• Perform consolidation of FSL, FSTG, and Colombia entities — intercompany eliminations, currency translation, and supporting schedules.
• Review and approve all journal entries and account reconciliations prepared by Angeline Sanchez (US) and the Colombia team.
• Prepare and distribute the monthly US and Colombia management reporting packages.
• Maintain and continuously improve close process documentation and controls — this role is expected to own and improve the process, not just execute it.
  
  

Team Management — US & Colombia

• Directly manage Angeline Sanchez (Senior Accountant, US GL) by approving journal entries, reviewing schedules, setting priorities, providing technical guidance, and providing escalation support.
• Serve as the technical accounting liaison to Leonardo Saavedra (Accounting Manager, Colombia), review consolidation inputs, resolve intercompany differences, and ensure alignment.
• Support Leonardo's team's consolidation of Jaina's work and ACK's work in-house.
• Run regular cross-border team syncs to maintain close calendar alignment and surface issues early.
  
  

External Audit Management

• Serve as the company's primary auditor contact by owning the RSM audit relationship end-to-end.
• Manage the full audit cycle: planning, PBC preparation and coordination, fieldwork support, review of draft findings, and final sign-off.
• Provide consolidated-level inputs and compensation data directly to auditors.
• Review and respond to auditor inquiries; escalate to CFO on matters requiring strategic judgment or PE-level decisions.
• Maintain audit readiness year-round through clean workpapers, reconciled accounts, and no surprises at audit time.
  
  

Corporate & State Income Tax Coordination

• Serve as primary internal liaison to external RSM tax preparers for federal and state income tax returns, extensions, and provisions.
• Supply PBC schedules, book-to-tax difference workpapers, and supporting data to preparers on schedule.
• Review tax provision calculations and ensure proper GL booking.
• Manage all 30 state tax notices, track, respond, and resolve independently.
• Execute IRS and state estimated tax payments and extension payments per preparer guidance.
• Coordinate with the Accounting Team on tax-related journal entries and GL coding.
  
  

Sales Tax Platform — Setup & Ongoing Oversight

• Own implementation and configuration of the sales tax compliance platform (Direct QuickBooks integration with Avalara).
• Ensure accurate tax mapping across jurisdictions, product/service categories, and customer types.
• Monitor platform output, review exception reports, and resolve discrepancies independently.
• Coordinate with external tax advisors on nexus determinations and rate changes.
• Maintain documentation of platform configuration and jurisdiction coverage.
  
  

Accounting Controls & Policy

• Maintain and enforce accounting policies, the chart of accounts, and close procedures.
• Ensure proper segregation of duties across the accounting function in coordination with the CFO.
• Maintain QuickBooks integrity (chart of accounts, period locks, user access review).
• Assess and lead a potential new ERP implementation.
• Identify and remediate control gaps proactively.
  
  

M&A Support — As Needed

• Support the CFO on financial due diligence for acquisition targets, assess target accounting quality, identify liabilities, and review historical close processes.
• Assist in acquired entity integration, chart of accounts alignment, intercompany setup, and consolidation onboarding.
• Maintain clean, well-documented books that can withstand transaction-level scrutiny at any time.
• This scope will grow as M&A activity increases, and candidates with prior transaction experience will ramp faster when it does.
  
  

What We're Looking For

• 8 years of progressive accounting experience, with at least 3 years in a management or senior role owning close and consolidation processes.
• CPA certification strongly preferred, with a solid background in technical accounting and multi-entity consolidation end-to-end.
• Proven track record managing external audits as the primary company contact and coordinating corporate/multi-state income tax with external preparers.
• Experience leading remote or international accounting teams, demonstrating the ability to operate independently with minimal oversight in lean environments.
• High proficiency in QuickBooks or comparable GL systems, with a focus on maintaining data integrity and period-close excellence.
• Exceptional adaptability and fast-ramp capabilities, ideally with experience in PE-backed, transitional, or fast-growth companies.
• Fully bilingual in English and Spanish, with the communication skills necessary for cross-border collaboration.
• Bachelor's degree.
• Proven ability to lead remote or international accounting teams, specifically with experience in LatAm or Colombia operations (Preferred).
• High proficiency in QuickBooks or comparable GL systems; experience with Sales Tax platform implementations (Avalara/TaxJar) is a plus.
• Experience in M&A financial due diligence, target accounting assessment, or acquired entity integration (Preferred).
• Strong background in Big 4 or regional public accounting, ideally followed by successful transitions into lean, industry-focused teams (Plus).

• 100% remote work.
• The ability to work with leading startups and Fortune 500 companies.
• Health, dental, and vision insurance.
