The Opportunity
We are hiring our first Controller. This is not a caretaker role. You will build the accounting function from the ground up: the close process, the controls, the systems, and the playbook that everything after you gets built on.
You will own the numbers for a company that designs, builds, and flies aircraft. That means real cost accounting, real inventory, and real government contract compliance. As we scale manufacturing and win larger programs, the infrastructure you put in place will determine how fast we can move.
You will report to company leadership and work directly with Operations, Supply Chain, and Program teams. You will have support, but you will not have a big team on day one. You will do the work and build the team behind you.
What You Will Do
- Own the monthly close end to end and drive it faster and cleaner every quarter
- Own GAAP financials, the general ledger, and account reconciliations
- Build and run cost accounting for hardware manufacturing, including inventory, WIP, standard costs, and variance analysis across our Oxnard and Arkansas operations
- Own our ERP and accounting systems, including implementation and administration
- Stand up government contract accounting: CLIN tracking, cost segregation, and compliance with FAR and DFARS expectations
- Build toward DCAA audit readiness, including timekeeping, indirect rate structures, and an approved accounting system
- Own AP, expense administration, and payroll operations
- Design internal controls that scale with headcount and contract volume
- Prepare for and manage the company's first financial audits
- Support FP&A and leadership with accurate, timely actuals
