This role requires being full-time onsite at our Palo Alto 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.
Platform standards across products and entities: Make sure new products, new asset types, new legal entities, and acquisitions plug into the platform instead of creating bespoke accounting workarounds. You set the standards, interfaces, and data contracts that product teams build against.
Regulatory and audit readiness: Work with compliance, legal, and risk so the platform supports regulatory reporting, books-and-records requirements, and examiner and auditor requests. You run dated plans against external deadlines and flag early when a timeline is at risk.
Close, reporting, and operational efficiency: Reduce the manual effort, elapsed time, and risk in month-end and quarter-end close. Establish the metrics that show whether the platform is working: reconciliation breaks, close duration, audit adjustments, manual journal volume, and time to onboard a new product.

What success looks like in the first two quarters

A documented map of how each major product's financial activity reaches the general ledger, with manual steps and gaps identified and prioritized.
A dated platform roadmap agreed with finance, engineering, and compliance, with external deadlines (audit, regulatory, and reporting) built into the plan.
