Senior Accountant, Crypto Finance & Operations

At Wormhole Labs, you join a crypto-native group of companies spanning market making, liquidity provision, on-chain trading infrastructure, and software development. As Senior Accountant, you work directly with the Head of Finance as a core part of the accounting and finance build-out. You own the monthly close across multiple entities, keep crypto subledgers accurate, handle billing and revenue tracking, and support compliance, tax and legal.

What you'll do

• Run the monthly close for several entities in QuickBooks Online, including bank and exchange reconciliations, journal entries, intercompany due to/due from tie-outs, and eliminations for the consolidated package
• Maintain crypto subledgers, including importing and validating exchange and on-chain transaction data and reconciling balances back to source
• Reconcile trading and liquidity activity across CEX accounts, perp venues like Hyperliquid, and DeFi LP positions on Solana and EVM chains, and produce P&L and rollforward schedules
• Set up and maintain charts of accounts for new entities and business lines as they launch
• Prepare monthly retainer and revenue share invoices, and maintain the Excel trackers behind them, including tiered fee logic and per-client billing bases
• Support entity structuring work across the group, including intercompany loans, capital contributions and distributions, and accounting for related party transactions
• Help prepare annual filings and tax workpapers, including BVI financial returns, federal tax memos, and supporting schedules for your outside CPA firm
• Assemble KYB packages, member and manager registers, and other documentation for banks, brokers and institutional partners
• Help maintain AML/OFAC program documentation and coordinate responses to regulatory and law enforcement records requests
• Support HR and payroll ops in Rippling, including deduction setups, payroll corrections and contractor tracking
• Build and maintain Excel and Google Sheets models: amortization schedules, loan workbooks, portfolio trackers and deal models

What you bring

• Ideally 5+ years of accounting experience, including 3+ years in crypto or digital assets
• CPA certification, or you are actively working toward it
• Real familiarity with digital asset accounting, including wallets, token transfers, swaps and perps, and how they should be accounted for
• A working understanding of DeFi, including liquidity pools, AMMs, lending protocols and staking, and how to account for each
• Hands-on experience with QuickBooks Online and at least one crypto subledger
• Strong Excel skills, including INDEX/MATCH, dropdown-driven models and clean reconciliation practices
• Comfort with multi-entity and intercompany accounting, including related party considerations under GAAP
• Good judgment on when an issue needs to be escalated and the ability to communicate it clearly, both verbally and in writing
• Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities at once

Nice to have

• Experience with crypto subledger platforms such as TRES, Koinly and Breezing
• Experience with entity structuring, including multi-entity setups, intercompany arrangements and offshore entities
