  • Upgrading our workflows and procedures with agents and MCPs to improve accuracy and efficiency

  • Optimising US and international tax matters, including the tax impact of management decisions

  • Preparing investor communications, first alongside our Head of Finance and progressively on your own

  • You're a CPA with a strong audit background that gave you a deep understanding of US GAAP and the preparation of audited financial statements

ABOUT POOLSIDE

Location: Remote (Europe or US East Coast) · Full-time

In this decade, the world will create Artificial General Intelligence. There will only be a small number of companies who will achieve this. Their ability to stack advantages and pull ahead will define the winners. These companies will move faster than anyone else. They will attract the world's most capable talent. They will be on the forefront of applied research, engineering, infrastructure and deployment at scale. They will continue to scale their training to larger & more capable models. They will be given the right to raise large amounts of capital along their journey to enable this. They will create powerful economic engines. They will obsess over the success of their users and customers.

Poolside exists to be this company: to build a world where AI will be the engine behind economically valuable work and scientific progress. We believe the fastest way to reach AGI lies in accelerating software development itself, by reshaping the developer experience with agentic systems, coding assistants, and the frontier models that power them. We deploy these systems directly into the development environments of security-conscious enterprises.

HOW WE WORK

Beyond technical know-how, we're looking for someone who fully commits to the way we work.

  • Deliver excellence. You're obsessed with accuracy and put in the work to get every detail right. You don't rely on reviewers to catch what you missed.

  • Be radically accountable. You own your workstreams. When something goes wrong, you fix it, address the cause and make sure it doesn't happen again.

  • Move fast. Speed is critical in our industry. Deadlines are commitments, and you meet them without needing to be reminded.

  • Build your own context. Information shared once becomes part of your knowledge. You have a system to capture it, so it never needs to be repeated.

  • Overcommunicate. We're a remote team. You share information proactively, clearly and often, and you respond promptly.

  • Sustain the intensity. Your standards stay the same during our most demanding periods. You manage your own energy so they never slip.

In their own words

About the company & team

We were founded in the US and have our home there, but our team is distributed across Europe and North America. We get our fix of in-person collaboration together each month for a week, usually in London and sometimes in other countries. We also do longer off-sites once a year.

Our People, Finance & Operations team is not an overhead team. We're commercially oriented and deliver products where Poolside is our customer and our team are our users. On the front end, we care about the experience: we design processes and choose tools that are easy to use and boost productivity and collaboration. On the back end, we're a highly knowledgeable team that prioritises automation and builds for scale, and we keep improving our processes, tools and materials as we grow, guided by the team's feedback and data.
