Job Description

Job description: Industry : Adult products & Robotics, AI Location : Fully Remote (Mountain / Pacific Time) Salary : up to $130k base This is a genuinely rare opportunity: a fully remote controller role with direct access to a CFO, meaningful public company exposure at the ground level, and real ownership over building something from scratch. Our client operates two distinct businesses under one roof - a B2B robotics company targeting a Nasdaq listing, and a globally recognized adult products brand. Both are growing fast, both need better infrastructure, and neither has a bureaucratic layer between you and the decisions that matter. If you are the type of accountant who sees a messy set of books and thinks I can fix this rather than this is not my problem, keep reading. THE COMPANY: TSXV-listed company with two operating divisions - enterprise robotics (targeting Nasdaq) and a globally distributed adult products business Robotics division sells AI-powered, lifelike robots to education, healthcare, and research markets - with a patented vision system and a recurring subscription model alongside hardware Adult products division is an established, consumer-facing brand expanding into software - a new female CEO is leading a brand and marketing refresh Four US entities in scope - lean, high-growth, building toward institutional-grade infrastructure Both businesses feel more like fast-moving startups than 20-year-old companies - because the opportunity still feels that wide open Candidates must be comfortable with both sides of the business RESPONSIBILITIES: This role owns the day-to-day accounting function across all US entities and is being brought in with a clear mandate: build something that works. The books have historically been tax-oriented and lightly controlled. A QBO migration just completed. The outgoing accounting manager is being replaced. The person who steps into this seat will have an audience of one for day-to-day direction - the CFO and will collaborate with the Corporate Controller on technical matters. The growth path is real: as entities scale, this person hires beneath them and moves toward owning external financial reporting. Own month-end close across four US entities - target under 5 business days Maintain bookkeeping and reconciliations in QuickBooks Online (QBO Desktop access required for historicals) Build payroll, expense, and inventory processes from the ground up Establish financial controls and audit-ready procedures where almost none currently exist Support Nasdaq listing preparation and ongoing TSXV reporting requirements Serve as the internal escalation point for accounting problems that previously had no home Be present and responsive on Teams - this is a remote team that runs on communication Serve as an internal resource for problem escalation - identifying issues proactively and driving resolution independently Qualifications: CPA designation is a nice-to-have, not a requirement - process discipline and communication matter more 5 to 7 years in accounting with hands-on close ownership QuickBooks Online proficiency required; QBO Desktop familiarity a genuine asset given the migration history Has worked in a messy environment and fixed it - startup, high-growth, or founder-led company experience preferred Audit awareness: knows what auditable looks like and can build toward it without hand-holding Comfortable being the only accounting voice in the room - no internal consultant to escalate to Exposure to public company reporting (TSXV, Nasdaq, or SEC) is a strong differentiator West coast or Mountain time preferred - remote team runs on overlapping business hours Genuinely comfortable with both the robotics and adult products sides of the business - this will come up in the first conversation Not the type to reverse-delegate or say Ive never done that before and stop there Communicates well in writing and on calls - the CFO wants someone to think out loud with, not someone who disappears and surfaces with answers Why is This a Great Opportunity: Direct line to the top. CFO access, day one. Blank canvas. No one is waiting at the door with a process manual. You define what good looks like. Public company exposure at this level is rare. You will be inside a real Nasdaq listing process - not reading about it in a textbook You will understand what the company actually does. The robotics business is building AI-interactive humanoids sold to universities, hospitals, and research labs. The work is interesting. Defined growth path. As each entity grows, you build the team beneath you. The title grows with the function. 100% remote. No commute. Performance is taken seriously Salary Type : Annual Salary Salary Min : CA$ Salary Max : CA$ Currency Type : CAD
