Senior Accountant

Mactores is the agent-native AWS modernization firm. Most modernization work doesn't ship, it stalls in pilots, slips a year, or lands at three times the budget. We exist to ship it: production systems running, legacy retired, outcomes measured. Our delivery is built on Aedeon, the agent platform built by Mactores' founders' sister company, which absorbs the repetitive 60–70% of engagement work, discovery, dependency mapping, validation, test generation, that traditional consulting bills human hours against. Forward-deployed engineers own the rest: architecture, judgment, and cutover, on dates we commit to in the contract.

Mactores runs two entities, one in India and one in the US. The finance function is two people. You'll be one of them.
Accounting is outsourced today. You'll bring it in house, and you'll run it daily rather than monthly.
That daily part is the job. The books close every day, not every month. Cash position is published every day. Transactions are categorized the day they land. The founders query the ledger directly using AI tools, which means the data has to be clean continuously, not tidied up in the first week of the following month. Month end becomes a review rather than an excavation.
You'll own both entities, India and the US: daily close, cash forecasting, revenue recognition on fixed-fee SOWs, AP and AR, collections, budget versus actual on partner-funded programs, and the statutory calendar in two countries. External firms stay on to review, a CPA firm on the US side and a CA firm in India. You report to the founders. Nobody will chase you. You run it.
Working hours are 2:00 pm to 11:30 pm IST. That covers the Indian business afternoon and the US East Coast morning, so you can reach an auditor in Mumbai and a customer in New York on the same day.

What you'll do?: Keep the books current every day in QuickBooks for the US and Zoho Books for India. Categorize transactions, clear bank feeds, and reconcile as things happen. At the end of any given day the ledger should reflect reality. Publish a daily cash position across both entities and both currencies, with a rolling 13-week forecast covering receivables expected in, payables and payroll going out, and statutory payments due. Founders review it weekly, which means it has to be right daily. Keep the ledger queryable. Consistent chart of accounts, consistent vendor and customer naming, class and location tagging by entity and business unit, nothing parked in suspense or left uncategorized. The founders ask questions of the books using AI tools, and an agent will answer confidently from bad data. Run budget versus actual reporting on MDF and MDF-like programs. This spend goes through a PO process rather than company cards, so you'll track each program from approved budget through PO committed, invoice received, paid, claimed, and reimbursed. Flag overspend, ineligible cost, and approaching claim deadlines before they cost us the claim. Chase the pieces that make that report true: PO approvals, vendor invoices, and proof-of-performance documentation from the teams running the programs. Card spend is already classified by our expense tool, so this is the part that needs a person, politely and repeatedly, without escalating each time. Run revenue collection. Invoice against SOW milestones, follow up by email on everything outstanding, and tell the founders what is at risk before it becomes a problem rather than after. Take the books in house from the current provider's team. Get the records, the portal access, and the opening balances, work out what was being done loosely, and stand up a process you would sign your name to. The provider's CA stays on as India reviewer, so you inherit the work rather than the relationship. Recognize revenue on fixed-fee, fixed-date SOWs. Separate assessment and POC contracts from production SOWs, track performance obligations across periods, and account for consideration that varies with delivery commitments. Handle the
