Platform Accounting Jobs in Edison, NJ (NOW HIRING)

About EliseAI
At EliseAI, we're improving the industries that matter most: housing and healthcare. Everyone needs a place to live and access to quality healthcare, yet both are often harder to secure than they should be.
By integrating AI agents deeply into existing workflows, we make them more efficient, reduce costs, and improve the experience for everyone.

• Housing: We simplify how renters tour apartments, sign leases, submit maintenance requests, and stay connected with their property team-bringing everything they need for their home into one place.

• Healthcare: We make it easy to schedule appointments, complete intake forms, and we help patients communicate with providers, so everyone can focus on health instead of paperwork.

With EliseAI, organizations reduce manual work, improve accessibility, and deliver a seamless experience across essential services. We recently raised a $250 million Series E round led by Andreessen Horowitz to accelerate this mission.
The Future Platforms Team - Executing on EliseAI's Future Products
The Future Platforms team is responsible for executing on the next generation of AI products and business lines. This team will blend go-to-market, product, operations, and strategy with a mandate to push the frontier of AI and own everything required to take them from idea to market leadership.
Our goal is to take Elise from agentic AI to truly end-to-end autonomous operations, fundamentally transforming how housing operators run their businesses and how residents experience their homes.
Future Platforms will operate as a startup within a startup, run like a Seed or Series A company but with the capital, resources, and market access of a well-funded Series E, deep C-suite involvement (CEO, CRO, CSO, CTO) and founder-level ownership from day one.
About The Role
As a Solutions Consultant at EliseAI, you will help found and scale a critical function at the intersection of product, growth, and finance.
You will serve as the accounting and finance subject matter expert in the room-partnering directly with our product and GTM team to win enterprise deals, shape product direction, and build credibility with senior finance leaders. This is a high-impact, cross-functional role where you'll help translate Elise's platform into the language of CFOs and Controllers while influencing how our accounting product evolves. Additionally, you will help make strategic decisions and weigh in on product direction and scoping, and develop a robust product tool kit.
You'll operate like a founder: owning ambiguous problems, driving deals forward, and helping define how Elise wins with finance buyers.
Key Responsibilities
Own finance-facing sales support

• Partner with Sales and Account Executives on enterprise and strategic deals as the accounting/finance expert
• Lead tailored product demos for CFOs, Controllers, and Finance leaders, translating platform capabilities into clear accounting workflows and outcomes
• Act as the bridge between technical product capabilities and real-world finance operations

Be the credibility layer for finance buyers

• Engage directly with prospect CFOs, VPs of Finance, and Controllers to build trust in Elise's accounting rigor
• Confidently handle detailed accounting and workflow questions, such as:
  
  • Intercompany eliminations
  • Bank reconciliation processes
  • Period close workflows
  • Audit readiness and controls
• Position Elise as a system finance teams can rely on for accuracy, compliance, and scalability

Shape product through customer insight

• Translate recurring objections, feature gaps, and workflow needs into actionable product feedback
• Partner with Product and Engineering to refine accounting features and prioritize roadmap investments
• Help define what "best-in-class" looks like for accounting workflows within Elise

Drive go-to-market strategy for accounting product

• Support positioning, messaging, and enablement for finance-specific use cases
• Build demo environments, playbooks, and repeatable narratives for selling into finance teams
• Enable the broader GTM org to confidently speak to accounting personas

Move at rocket speed, build something massive.
We're scaling fast, solving real client problems with precision and ambition. Here, you own your impact; full autonomy, no micromanagement, no fluff.
We hire the best, expect the best, and give you the masterclass of your career. It's hard, it's intense, and it's the most rewarding work you'll ever do. If you're hungry, driven, and ready to build something massive, climb aboard.
Requirements:
We're looking for someone who combines deep accounting expertise with a builder mindset:

• Background as a Controller, Accounting Manager, or finance related roles (ideally in a high-growth or tech-enabled environment)
• Experience working at or closely with tech startups (fintech, ERP, accounting software, or adjacent)
• Strong understanding of core accounting workflows (close, reconciliations, consolidations, controls)
• Comfortable translating between finance, product, and technical teams
• Excellent communicator who can build credibility with senior finance stakeholders quickly
• Highly autonomous, action-oriented, and comfortable operating in ambiguity
• Excited to help define a new function and influence product direction
• Willingness to work in person at our office 4-5 days a week

Why Join
Growth and impact. It's not often that you can get in on the ground floor of a funded (unicorn!) startup that's scaling so fast. That means that instead of following a playbook, you'll be writing it. Every single day you will be challenged to identify how we can scale and execute on it. You'll learn what works when you succeed and what doesn't when you fail. Either way, the rest of the team will be here to support you.
Benefits

• Equity in the company
• Medical, Dental and Vision premiums covered at 100%

• Monthly fitness stipend
• A collaborative in-office environment with an open floor plan, fully stocked kitchen, and company-paid lunch
• Fun company social events through our Elise and the City program
• Unlimited vacation and paid holidays
• We'll cover relocation packages and make the move exciting, not painful!
