Private markets are the new public markets. The most important companies of this era are private, and almost no one can own them. What's missing is the financial system public markets spent a century building: exchanges, custodians, brokers, and ways for ordinary people to buy in. Private markets, now $28T, never had the equivalent. AngelList is building it.
The last decade of structural innovation in venture happened here: syndicates, SPVs at scale, Rolling Funds, scout programs. Today we have $200B+ in assets and 30,000+ startups funded on our platform. The rest of private markets is next. Funds is the software and services behind private funds, Nova is the banking network, Meridian is the wealth platform for accredited investors, and USVC is the brand behind a registered fund that lets anyone invest in venture.
Working here means an unusual amount of agency on a problem that matters. Titles are closer to suggestions, and there are about 200 of us building what private markets never had. Come build it with us.
AngelList runs on dozens of legal entities, and every one of them needs its own clean books — which means every invoice, PO, and payment run has to land in the right entity, coded correctly, the first time.
As our Staff Accountant for AP & Procurement, you'll own the procure-to-pay process end to end across this environment: applying accounting judgment to invoices, managing vendors and POs, running payment cycles across subsidiaries, and supporting month-end close.
This isn’t a role for someone who wants to simply process invoices. You’ll be expected to understand the accounting behind the transactions, make decisions independently, and improve the systems you inherit. As volume grows, you’ll use automation to build a procure-to-pay process that scales without sacrificing accuracy or control.
Responsibilities:
- Own AP, code invoices with judgment. Classify expenses correctly, capitalize fixed assets, amortize prepaids, and apply accrual thresholds across every entity. Drive the annual 1099 process.
- Run procurement end to end. Manage purchase orders, vendor onboarding, and ongoing process improvements.
- Automate for scale. Improve how Ramp and NetSuite work together and use automation to reduce manual coding, matching, and reconciliation without weakening controls.
- Support month-end close. Own AP-related intercompany activity, consolidation-related AP tasks, and audit-ready schedules and documentation.
What we're looking for:
- 3+ years of accounting experience with meaningful ownership of accounts payable at volume. You’ve done more than just route invoices - you’ve made and defended the accounting decisions behind them without a manager in the room.
- Debits and credits are instinct, not a lookup, and you’re comfortable making calls involving expense classification, prepaids, accruals, and fixed assets.
- Hands-on NetSuite and Ramp (or a comparable platform) experience, ideally in a multi-subsidiary environment.
- A track record of improving the process you inherit. You’ve used automation to eliminate manual work and can explain what you changed and what improved.
- You can walk a controller through a coding call and a non-finance teammate through a rejected expense in the same day.
- High attention to detail and low tolerance for unintentional risk. You catch what’s off before it becomes a close problem.
