Why Appodeal?
At Appodeal, we’re more than just a company—we’re a team united by a common mission: Help people discover and grow their talents through products that enable successful mobile app businesses!
We take pride in our cutting-edge product and our internationally dispersed team of talented professionals.
Here’s what we value, and what we hope you do too:
- Seek the Truth and Say It with Care: We find the truth together, and nobody owns it, the CEO included. Stories, perspectives and beliefs can be personal. Facts can’t.
- Leverage Data to Build Product: Our decisions start from data. We build systems rather than one-off tasks, use AI agents in our daily work and automate whatever is manual. When numbers don’t match, we fix them.
- We Work Together to Serve Others: No closed doors between teams. We share what we learn and win as one company first.
- Insist on Higher Standards: We don’t settle for “good enough”. We question it and push for better.
- Passionate Curiosity Fuels Perseverance: We ask “why”, take on ambiguous problems and keep going when they get hard.
- Lean Startup Mentality: Start Small, Iterate Quickly: Think big, ship an MVP first and learn fast. No big-bang releases.
- Ownership and Accountability: We work in small squads so each team owns its result end to end and has the freedom to get there. Go deep in your craft and wide enough to own the whole outcome. Escalate blockers early, admit mistakes, fix the damage and learn.
Position Overview
The Assistant Controller owns the day-to-day accounting operations of the organization — financial reporting, the general ledger, technical accounting compliance, and the accounting team. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who closes the books accurately and on time, and who then goes further: interrogating the data, automating the manual work, and turning financial results into insight the business can act on.
We are looking for a modern accountant. Beyond mastery of GAAP and the close, the successful candidate is genuinely strong in data analysis and has practical experience applying AI and automation tools to accounting workflows. As routine transaction processing becomes increasingly automated, this role is expected to shift toward reviewing automated output, investigating anomalies, strengthening controls, and advising business partners. The role also carries public-company readiness responsibilities, including SOX-aligned internal controls and audit readiness.
Key Responsibilities
1. Financial Reporting
- Prepare and review monthly, quarterly, and annual financial statements, including supporting schedules and management commentary.
- Ensure compliance with U.S. GAAP and applicable financial reporting standards.
- Manage consolidation of financial data across multiple entities, including intercompany eliminations and foreign currency translation.
- Support the preparation of reporting packages for executive leadership, the board, lenders, and investors.
2. General Ledger and Month-End Close
- Own the month-end, quarter-end, and year-end close calendar, driving accuracy, completeness, and a shortening close cycle.
- Review and approve journal entries, account reconciliations, accruals, and adjustments.
- Maintain the chart of accounts and accounting policy documentation.
- Track and report close-cycle metrics, and set measurable targets for reducing days-to-close.
3. Technical Accounting
- Research and document positions on technical accounting matters; prepare accounting memos supporting significant judgments.
- Apply revenue recognition (ASC 606), leases (ASC 842), and equity compensation (ASC 718) standards as applicable.
- Monitor new and emerging accounting pronouncements and assess their impact on the organization.
