Welcome! 👋
Accounting is the universal language of business and commerce, in every country, state, and city across the world. It is incredibly fascinating, highly logical and challengingly complex.
Yet, accountants have been largely neglected by the tech industry. Most of today’s accounting software was built on ancient codebases over 20 years ago and moves as slow as an oil tanker.
This lack of tools has accountants overwhelmed and led to a bad reputation- don’t you dread speaking with your ‘bean-counting’ colleagues from the Finance team?
But with AI, we can now build a 10x better product that automates 75%+ of the accountant’s tasks, allowing them to focus on driving business insights rather than playing catch-up with last month’s financials.
Accounting will undergo a radical transformation over the next 10 years, and we are driving this change!
Overview:
👨💻 Mid-Level Manual QA Engineer building SaaS product
🧠 Bring AI to the outdated accounting industry
🏆 Work with serial founders (sold previous company: $380m raised, $100m ARR, 280+ team)
🎒 Well-funded by the world’s top VC firms and unicorn founders, specialized in AI SaaS
💰 Base salary range $24,000 to $30,000 USD + significant equity package (~$10k+)
📍 Ukraine - Remote | New York City - HQ
Our Founders:
Our Founders started their previous company after meeting while coding in Computer Science class. With just $2,000 in savings, the two bootstrapped their first company to $25 million in ARR - and profitably - in just 5 years. They then raised $325 million of venture funding, rapidly scaling the business to 250+ people, >$100 million in ARR and an exit. With DualEntry, they have now decided to tackle their biggest pain point from their first 8-year journey of entrepreneurship: outdated accounting systems. Our Founders have been featured in Forbes, Inc. Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, and multiple podcasts incl. the Tim Ferris Show with over 2+ million downloads to their episode.
About DualEntry:
Funded by some of the world’s top VCs, DualEntry is building the future of enterprise accounting software. Our tight-knit team is small, but offers you plenty of room to thrive. Our culture is built on speed, velocity, and a love for what we do, which attracts high performers who are excited to work hard, move fast, and have fun along the way.
We believe AI will disrupt accounting over the next 10 years. 77%+ of today's accounting workflows are already fully automatable (McKinsey & Co). AI has the power to automate particularly manual and pattern-based tasks - it’s perfect for accounting.
We believe the opportunity is now. Existing accounting softwares are ill-positioned for AI with their ancient architectures and have some of the lowest satisfaction scores in all of FinTech, i.e: they're still stuck in the 1990's!
We believe the opportunity is huge. Every company needs back-office accounting services; SAP is the 7th largest tech company in the world; plus, there’s an extreme shortage of accounting talent with ~75% of CPAs retiring over the next 10 years (Wall Street Journal).
We believe ‘boring’ industries are actually the most interesting. Traditionally ‘boring’ industries such as accounting are often times underrated, largely neglected, much more challenging than people think and present some of the greatest opportunities to solve problems where others don’t want to look.
