Paxos is on a mission to enable the movement of any asset, any time, in a trustworthy way. Today’s financial infrastructure is archaic, expensive, inefficient and risky - supporting a system that leaves out more people than it lets in. So we’re rebuilding it. 

As a regulated blockchain infrastructure company, we use technology to tokenize, custody, trade, and settle assets for enterprise clients like PayPal, Novi, Bank of America, and Interactive Brokers. Paxos is a top-funded blockchain company, with more than $500 million in total funding from leading investors like OakHC/FT, Founders Fund, PayPal Ventures, and Declaration Partners. Together, we empower today’s financial leaders to build a more open, trusted economy.

Our Finance and Accounting Team is looking for a Staff Accountant! This individual will be responsible for the day-to-day accounting and month end close activities. This role is key to providing accurate and timely financial information used to support both internal decision making and external constituents.

  • Perform month-end and year-end accounting close procedures and journal entries
  • Support day-to-day accounting operations in the following areas: accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll, cash management, bank reconciliations, corporate cards, and expense reporting
  • Support long-term accounting projects that will help enhance efficiencies as we grow our business
  • Assist in annual audits, taxes, and other aspects of compliance
  • Ad hoc analysis/cross-functional projects

  • Strong Excel and data management skills (e.g., pivot tables, V-lookups, index/match functions)
  • Eager to work in a fast-paced environment
