About OneText:
Sitting at the intersection of payments, AI, and marketing, OneText makes shopping as effortless as paying with your hotel room number. Shoppers literally reply and buy with one text. Fast-growing ecommerce brands use our text to buy payments and sales concierge to drive up to 30% more revenue. We replace conventional SMS marketing with two-way conversations that delight shoppers and inspire them to buy more.
We’re backed by rockstars including Y Combinator, Coatue, Citi Ventures, Khosla Ventures, the founders of Warby Parker, Allbirds and Harry’s and Matt Bellamy, the lead singer of Muse.
We're building a world-class team and we’re looking for part 🪄magician, part 📣 cheerleader, part 🏴☠️ pirate, part 🚀 astronaut to join as our founding growth marketer. If that’s you, reach out!
The Role:
As OneText’s first accounting/finance hire you’ll help OneText scale from hundreds of customers to thousands.
Key Responsibilities:
📊 Take ownership of our entire accounting function (you’ll be our first finance/accounting hire and you’ll lay the foundation for how we do this right)
📁 Manage and reconcile passthrough costs and revenue, and ensure the complexities are reflected accurately and cleanly in our books
📆 Close the books monthly, quarterly, and annually - fast, accurately, and with zero surprises
📚 Own GAAP-compliant financials, taxes, and audit readiness (and work with external partners to get them done well)
🧰 Help us choose, implement, and maintain the right accounting tools and systems (e.g. ERP, AP automation, expense tools, etc.)
🧾 Work with the CEO and Chief of Staff to ensure financial statements are clear, reliable, and useful for tracking cashflow and forecasting both revenue and costs
💡 Bring insight, not just reporting: Help us understand margins, cash flow, and cost centers (and how to improve them)
📐 Partner with outside vendors (current bookkeeping firm, tax firms, etc.) where needed to scale cleanly
Required Skills / Experience:
High level of accounting competency — this isn’t a job for someone still learning the basics. We need technical strength and judgment from day one
Previous experience working in an early-stage startup
Strong understanding of GAAP, tax compliance, and financial reporting
Experience managing or working with passthrough costs/revenue or complex revenue structures
Comfort being a team of one and designing systems that scale beyond you
Strong project management instincts - you know how to break big problems into clean, fast executions
Excellent communication - you can make accounting clear to founders, investors, and non-finance teammates
No ego about rolling up your sleeves - whether it’s chasing down receipts or rebuilding a chart of accounts
Experience setting up Quickbooks, Brex, and other startup-friendly tools
Why Join Us?
Be the first accounting hire at a rocketship startup: You’ll shape how our company tracks, understands, and optimizes its finances — from zero to scale
Solve hard and interesting problems: Our passthrough business model adds complexity most startups don’t touch until years later. You’ll build the systems that make it all work
Work with founders who care deeply about doing it right: We’re not looking for shortcuts — we’re looking for someone who can build a machine that runs clean, fast, and forever
Real responsibility, real impact: This isn’t a back-office role. You’ll be a key voice in financial planning, investor updates, and how we run the business
Join a company that’s growing fast: Revenue is up, the team is scaling, and we’re preparing for our next big chapter — including a Series A
