Edtech Onboarding Jobs in Utah (NOW HIRING)

Full-Time Lehi, Utah Reports to Operating CFO Path to Controller

We’re looking for someone with solid accounting fundamentals who also wants to be in the operational fabric of the business. This isn’t a heads‑down bookkeeping role — it’s a high‑visibility position where your fingerprints will be on everything from month‑end close to HR onboarding to vendor contracts.

You’ll be the backbone of our back‑office operations, reporting directly to the Operating CFO, and on a deliberate path toward Controller. We’re an early‑stage company that’s past the chaos and building toward audit‑ready — and we need someone who knows what that journey looks like.

If you’ve thrived in a startup environment, aren’t waiting for a manual, and want a role where your work directly enables teachers and students to succeed in math — this is it.

Three domains, one person. That’s the job.

• Manage the full‑cycle month‑end close process; ensure all financial statements are accurate and GAAP‑compliant
• Own accounts receivable and accounts payable, with a focus on streamlining both functions
• Prepare monthly, quarterly, and annual financial reports for leadership and board members
• Lead the transition from startup scrappiness to audit‑ready processes

• Manage payroll processing, benefits administration, and employee onboarding/offboarding
• First‑line review of SaaS agreements and vendor contracts; manage cap table and state registrations
• Identify bottlenecks in internal tools and implement systems that help us scale efficiently
• Support data security compliance related to SOC 2 and ISO

• Assist in budget preparation and variance analysis to support data‑driven leadership decisions
• Understand and prepare key SaaS metrics for the business
• Support the CEO and CFO in fundraising efforts or audit preparation as needed

You’re not waiting for a manual — you’re writing it. Here’s what we’re looking for.

• Deep understanding of accounting principles and the ability to explain them in plain English (GAAP Guru)
• Experience in a startup or fast‑paced small company (Early‑Stage Veteran)
• Looking for a role that will explicitly prepare you for Controller or CFO (Up‑and‑Comer)
• Meticulously organized—reconciled accounts and well‑organized digital filing system (Meticulously Organized)
• Tech‑savvy with QuickBooks Online, Excel, Google Workspace, HubSpot, and modern SaaS stacks like Ramp and TriNet (Tech‑Savvy)

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Finance (CPA preferred, but not required for the right experience)
• Experience in EdTech or SaaS is a significant plus
• Proven ability to manage confidential information with utmost discretion

• QuickBooks Online
• Excel
• Google Workspace
• HubSpot
• Ramp
• TriNet

Get in early. Build something lasting.

This isn’t a role where you maintain the status quo. You’re building the financial infrastructure of a growing company — and you’ll have the ownership to do it right.

You’re getting in early with a clear, explicit path to Controller and eventually CFO. This role is designed to develop you, not just use you.

Your work directly enables teachers and students to succeed in math. The financial infrastructure you build funds a mission that matters.

We value competence, initiative, transparency, kindness, and curiosity. Not as wall art — as the actual criteria for how we hire and how we work.
