Principal Product Manager - Accounting Platform (Product Minded Auditor)

As Principal Product Manager for the Accounting Platform at BitGo, you own the financial data and accounting systems that make digital asset balances, fees, statements, and regulatory filings correct by construction. BitGo is a publicly traded digital asset infrastructure company and federally chartered trust bank serving thousands of institutions. You will translate accounting and control requirements into scalable, auditable platform capabilities that product, engineering, finance, and compliance teams build on. Digital assets, on-chain activity, custody structures, staking, and settlement each move through the system differently, and you will help define the playbook for how they land correctly on the books.

What you'll do

• Own the financial data and accounting platform roadmap: define and deliver shared capabilities that ensure ledger and sub-ledger integrity, balance and activity reconciliation, fee and revenue calculation, client reporting, and feeds into the general ledger and financial close.
• Build controls into the product by partnering with finance, internal audit, and external auditors to turn SOX and internal control requirements into product capabilities instead of manual procedures, delivering control builds in step with the audit calendar.
• Set platform standards across products and entities: ensure new products, new asset types, new legal entities, and acquisitions plug into the platform instead of creating bespoke accounting workarounds, and define the standards, interfaces, and data contracts that product teams build against.
• Own regulatory and audit readiness by working with compliance, legal, and risk to ensure the platform supports regulatory reporting, books-and-records requirements, and external examiner and auditor requests.
• Reduce manual effort, elapsed time, and risk in month-end and quarter-end close, establishing metrics such as reconciliation breaks, close duration, audit adjustments, manual journal volume, and time to onboard a new product.

What you bring

• 9+ years of experience building or scaling systems, platforms, tooling, or control frameworks that multiple teams relied on, including 3+ years as the owner, with demonstrated ability to set strategy or standards that other teams adopted.
• A strong accounting or finance foundation such as a CPA, accounting degree, or hands-on experience in financial reporting, audit, controllership, or accounting systems, with the ability to read a trial balance, follow a journal entry through a ledger, and discuss revenue recognition or reconciliation with a controller.
• Experience building scalable platforms such as ledgers, billing, payments, reporting, data infrastructure, reconciliation tooling, or controls automation, with the ability to think in data models, interfaces, and reuse.
• Experience in a regulated financial environment, including work with auditors, examiners, SOX controls, or control programs, and understanding of how public company obligations change how products are built.
• Technical credibility with engineers: you can follow architecture discussions, pressure-test estimates, and write precise requirements for data-heavy systems.
• Professional experience with crypto or digital assets, or passion projects with breadth and depth across digital assets.
• A writing-first approach, with clear specs, data flow maps, and decision documents as your default artifacts.

Nice to have

• Familiarity with SQL and financial data pipelines.

What we offer

• Base salary between $230,000 and $260,000 USD, with equity and an annual performance bonus.
• 100% company-paid health insurance for employee, partner, and dependents.
• Up to 4% 401k company match.
