Your Role:
As the Accounting Specialist, you’ll support the daily finance and accounting operations that keep the business running smoothly. You’ll handle AP/AR processing, reconciliations, reporting, and month‑end tasks while assisting with payroll, sales tax compliance, and audits.

- Support month‑end and year‑end close, including journal entries and reporting.
- Maintain organized financial records, documentation, and reports.
- Resolve invoicing, payment, and reconciliation issues with internal teams.
- Assist with payroll processing and maintain accurate employee records.
- Set up and manage multi‑state sales tax accounts and ensure compliance.
- Support cash flow forecasting, audits, and other accounting tasks as needed.
What You’ll Bring:
- Degree in accounting, finance, or related field — or equivalent experience.
- 2+ years of experience in AP/AR, payroll, or general ledger accounting.
- Proficiency with Excel and accounting software (Sage 100 or similar a plus).
- Solid understanding of GAAP and multi‑state tax requirements.
- Excellent attention to detail, organization, and follow‑through.
- Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills, with the ability to work discreetly and handle confidential information.
Why Join?
You’ll be part of a team that builds products with pride and purpose. Our company fosters a culture of trust, humility, and respect – where ideas are welcome, hard work is recognized, and people genuinely care about doing good work together. With American‑made values at its core, this is a place where your contributions matter, your impact is visible, and your career can grow.
