This role requires being full-time onsite at our New York, NY office to support collaborative team dynamics and innovative problem-solving.
Why this role exists
Every product BitGo ships eventually becomes a number: a balance, a fee, a statement, a journal entry, a regulatory filing. As a public company and a federally chartered trust bank, we have to prove those numbers are right every period, across many products, legal entities, and jurisdictions.
You will own the product strategy for the financial and accounting platform that makes those numbers right by construction, as we add products, entities, and asset types. You will turn accounting requirements into scalable, auditable, self-service platform capabilities that product, engineering, finance, and compliance can build on.
Digital assets make this harder, and more interesting, than it is at a traditional bank. On chain activity, custody structures, staking, tokenized assets, and settlement each move through our systems differently, and each has to land correctly on the books. The industry is still writing the playbook for much of this. You will help write it.
Level
We are hiring at Senior or Principal level, depending on experience. The core scope is the same at both. At Principal, you have already set platform strategy and standards that multiple teams adopted, and you will own the cross-product standards and the working relationship with finance and audit leadership with more independence from day one.
What you will own
- The financial data and accounting platform roadmap: Define and deliver the shared capabilities that make financial data trustworthy by construction: ledger and sub-ledger integrity, balance and activity reconciliation, fee and revenue calculation, client reporting, and the feeds into the general ledger and the financial close.
- Controls built into the product: Partner with finance, internal audit, and external auditors to turn SOX and internal control requirements into product capabilities instead of manual procedures. When a control needs a build, you own the requirements, the plan, and the timeline, delivered in step with the audit calendar.
