Powercast Corporation, a pioneer in RF-based wireless power technology, is seeking a hands-on finance leader to build and own our finance function as the company scales. We’re open to candidates at different career stages: a strong Controller who is ready to grow into a Chief Financial Officer role over time, or someone who has already served as CFO of a small company and is looking to step directly into that scope of responsibility here.

About The Role

We need someone who can operate at every level of the finance function — from day-today bookkeeping to leading month-end and year-end close, coordinating the audit, and ultimately providing strategic financial leadership. Depending on your background, you may start as a true “player-coach,” doing the detailed work yourself while building the systems and processes the company will need as it grows, or you may already be equipped to take on that broader leadership role from day one.

Key Responsibilities

Own full-cycle bookkeeping and general ledger accuracy
Lead month-end and year-end close processes
Prepare financial statements and management reporting packages
Coordinate directly with external auditors and manage the annual audit
Manage payroll processing and compliance (ADP or similar)
Maintain and improve internal controls and accounting policies
Support budgeting, forecasting, and cash flow management
Partner with leadership on financial planning as the role expands toward CFO responsibilities
Evaluate and optimize financial systems and reporting tools over time

Qualifications

Proven experience as a Controller, Senior Accountant, or similar progressive accounting role
Strong working knowledge of QuickBooks required
Experience with DataRails (or similar FP&A/reporting tools) strongly preferred
Familiarity with ADP or comparable payroll systems
Demonstrated experience managing external audit relationships
CPA or CPA track preferred
Public accounting experience is a plus
GAAP proficient
Excellent organizational skills and comfort working in a small-company environment where you’ll wear multiple hats
Prior experience as CFO of a small company is a plus, but not required — we’re equally interested in Controllers ready to grow into that role
