Kikoff: The Fintech Powering Financial Security at Scale
Kikoff is a profitable, pre-IPO fintech company on a mission to empower everyone to achieve financial security. With record revenue growth in 2025 and a unicorn valuation, we've built a suite of products that help millions of people build credit, access liquidity, and save money.
We're scaling fast. Join us if you want to build something meaningful and help millions of people move forward financially.
Why Kikoff:
This is a consumer fintech startup, and you will be working with serial entrepreneurs who have built strong consumer brands and innovative products. We value extreme ownership, clear communication, a strong sense of craftsmanship, and the desire to create lasting work and work relationships. Yes, you can build an exciting business AND have real-life real-customer impact.
Kikoff is preparing to become a public company, and the accounting foundation for that is still being built. That's this job. You'll own everything outside of revenue, from the vendor invoice to the cap table. You'll lead a growing team, turn a manual, multi-entity close into one that's fast, predictable, and audit-ready, and help build the SEC reporting process we'll need as a public company.
Most accounting managers have to pick a track. They either run the close or work on technical accounting and SEC reporting. Here you get both. You'll own the day-to-day operations, and you'll also work directly with the US Controller and our Senior Manager of Technical Accounting & SEC Reporting on share-based compensation, EPS, segment reporting, and our first SEC filings. If you're a strong operator who wants technical depth and public-company experience, this role is built for you.
You'll have real authority to change how things work. You'll report to the US Controller who expects you to make the calls, and you'll join a team that uses AI in how it does the work every day, not as a side project.
If you were the person who fixed the close at your last company and you'd like to build it right from the start this time, we'd like to talk.
You don't need to have done SEC reporting or complex technical accounting before. We're looking for a strong operator who's curious about that work, and we'll help you build it.
We always make room for exceptional people. If you don't match this list exactly, tell us where you'd fit.

Open job postingAbout the company
Kikoff was founded in 2019 with a not-so-simple goal: make it easier for people to build credit. Credit plays a huge role in our lives, from opening a credit card to qualifying for a home loan. But there's a catch, it's easier to build credit, when you already have it. Co-founders Cynthia Chen and Christophe Chong understood this challenge first hand, so they built a solution. Kikoff's main product is our Credit Account, a specialized, reported credit line exclusively focused on building credit. We've expanded the features of our paid account to include things like spam call blocking, identity protection, rent reporting, and more. Over a million people have used Kikoff to build their credit.
