Superstate is advancing next-generation financial infrastructure with a focus on velocity. Our team thrives on clear thinking, open communication, and the relentless drive to build durable financial infrastructure. We’re looking for candidates who bring strong attention to detail, deep curiosity, reliability under pressure, sharp problem-solving skills, exceptionally high integrity, and the ability to communicate clearly across technical and non-technical teams.

- Support year-end audits and tax filings, coordinating with fund administrators, auditors, and tax advisors
- Maintain and enhance operational controls to ensure compliance with fund policies and regulatory requirements
