US Finance & Accounting Specialist
Company Description
Datagist.ai helps enterprises resolve conflicting information across multiple systems by building master data, data pipelines, and AI solutions that produce a single, defensible answer. The company focuses on three key areas: master data and data quality, data engineering and platforms, and AI systems with strong governance. Datagist.ai is distinct in combining engineering and governance expertise in the same team, ensuring solutions are both technically sound and compliant with security and audit requirements. Client engagements are structured as fixed-fee assessments and scoped builds delivered in short iterations, all within the client’s own cloud and repositories so the client owns the code. The team is intentionally small and specialized, taking on only work that fits its strengths and being transparent when a different partner would be a better fit.

Day-to-day tasks include maintaining accurate general ledger records, preparing and reviewing financial statements, supporting month-end and year-end close processes, and ensuring compliance with relevant US accounting standards and tax regulations. The specialist will handle accounts payable and receivable, assist with budgeting and forecasting, and provide clear financial reports and analyses to leadership to support decision-making. This role also involves improving internal financial processes, collaborating with operations and leadership on pricing, contracts, and vendor management, and coordinating with external accountants or auditors as needed.
