About the Role

As a Senior Revenue Accountant, you will own end-to-end revenue recognition for the Gusto Retirement segment (401K SaaS, IRA, AUM fees, plan administration) and support new revenue products. You will apply ASC 606 to complex arrangements, prepare journal entries and reconciliations, and partner with Operations, FP&A, Engineering, and Data teams. You will also build automated solutions using AI tools, Python/SQL, or Excel scripting to eliminate manual work.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's in Accounting; CPA preferred (active or in progress)
  • 5+ years of accounting experience, with at least 3 years focused on revenue accounting
  • Strong ASC 606 knowledge applied to SaaS, subscription, or fee-based models
  • Proven track record building automation — scripts, tools, or workflows that reduced manual effort
  • Advanced Excel; Python or SQL a strong plus
  • NetSuite or revenue subledger experience a plus
  • Big 4 or public accounting background preferred; fintech or financial services a bonus

Compensation

Cash compensation is $97,660/yr to $108,114/yr in Denver & most major metro locations, and $116,385/yr to $131,208/yr for San Francisco & New York. All full-time employees receive competitive base pay, benefits, and equity (RSUs).

Work Location

Hybrid role based in Denver, CO; New York, NY; San Francisco, CA; or Scottsdale, AZ. Employees in those locations work from the office approximately 2-3 days per week (or more depending on role).
