Summary Generated by Built In

We are building AI to simulate the world through merging art and science.
We believe that world models are at the frontier of progress in artificial intelligence. Language models alone won’t solve the world’s hardest problems – robotics, disease, scientific discovery. Real progress requires models that experience the world and learn from their mistakes, the same way that humans do. And this kind of trial and error can be massively accelerated when done in simulation, rather than in the real world.
World models offer the most clear path to general-purpose simulation, changing how stories are told, how scientific progress is made and how the next frontiers of humanity are reached.

Our team consists of creative, open minded, caring and ambitious people who are determined to change the world. We aspire to continuously build impossible things and our ability to do so relies on building an incredible team. If you are driven to do the same, we'd love to hear from you.

About the role 

*Open to hiring remote across the US — we also have offices in NYC, San Francisco, and Seattle

We are seeking a detail-oriented and self-driven Senior Accountant to join our Finance team. This is a hands-on role for a strong foundational accountant who takes ownership of the close, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and brings rigor and accuracy to everything they touch.

What You'll Do
  • Execute a timely and accurate monthly close, including prepare and post journal entries and fluxes, maintain account reconciliations, and investigate and resolve variances

  • Support accounts receivable operations, including invoicing, collections follow-up, cash application, and aging review

  • Support accounts payable operations, including reviewing and reconciling invoices and cash management

  • Identify and implement process improvements across accounting workflows such as document procedures, strengthen controls, and drive consistency as the team scales

  • Represent the accounting function in cross-functional conversations, whether with Legal, Sales, or Engineering, ensuring accounting considerations are surfaced early and reflected in decisions

  • Assist in the preparation of supporting schedules and documentation for external audits and financial reporting

What you’ll need
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance; CPA or CPA candidate preferred

  • 4+ years of accounting experience with strong technical fundamentals

  • Solid command of U.S. GAAP and a deep understanding of the full close cycle

  • High proficiency in Excel; experience with Netsuite a plus

  • Highly organized, dependable, and able to manage competing deadlines without sacrificing accuracy

  • Strong communicator who works well across teams

Runway strives to recruit and retain exceptional talent from diverse backgrounds while ensuring pay equity for our team. Our salary ranges are based on competitive market rates for our size, stage and industry, and salary is just one part of the overall compensation package we provide.

There are many factors that go into salary determinations, including relevant experience, skill level and qualifications assessed during the interview process, and maintaining internal equity with peers on the team. The range shared below is a general expectation for the function as posted, but we are also open to considering candidates who may be more or less experienced than outlined in the job description. In this case, we will communicate any updates in the expected salary range.
