Job Description - Sr. Onboarding Accounting Specialist

Job Description

Job Description Salary: $60,000-70,000
Individual applicants only. Accounting firms should not solicit business based on this opening.

About Uplinq
We are an Arizona-based startup building software to automate bookkeeping and tax for small businesses. This wasn’t always our plan. When we started Uplinq, we wanted to help small businesses use their financial data to make timely business decisions, survive loan due diligence, and work with

acquirers/investors.

We tried solving these challenges directly to no avail and quickly realized they are all symptoms of a bigger problem: bookkeeping is hard, and SMBs hate doing it.

Since then we’ve been hard at work developing accounting technology for small businesses that is high-quality, real-time, and affordable. Our customers are dentists, restaurant owners, insurance agents, realtors - real people from all walks of life. Some tried to manage their books in QBO themselves and couldn’t keep up. Some paid a CPA firm too much for bookkeeping that only gets updated once a quarter. Some switched from companies like Bench and Pilot looking for better service.

We are a tight-knit team, including CPAs, engineers, tax preparers, product designers, and marketers. We support each other, communicate openly, have fun at work, and all believe in Uplinq’s mission to help real people run their businesses better.
