Junior Blockchain Accountant
Company: General Tensor
Location: Fully remote
Reports to: Chief Financial Officer
Experience: 0–2 years
:About the role
General Tensor is hiring a Junior Blockchain Accountant to work directly with our CFO as we prepare for our first audit. You’ll be hands-on with on-chain data and centralized exchange (CEX) accounts — pulling transactions, reconciling activity, and helping assemble the financial statements that will go through audit review.
This is a high-visibility seat for someone early in their accounting career who is genuinely fluent in crypto. You’ll get a direct line to the CFO, ownership of meaningful workstreams, and a front-row view of how a crypto-native company closes its books and stands up audit-ready financials.
What you’ll do:
- Pull and reconcile transaction data from on-chain wallets across multiple networks (e.g., Ethereum, Solana, Bitcoin) using block explorers, RPC endpoints, and crypto sub-ledger tools.
- Reconcile CEX accounts (Coinbase, Kraken, Binance, etc.) — pulling API exports, normalizing trade and transfer activity, and tying balances to the general ledger.
- Classify on-chain activity (transfers, swaps, staking, gas, fees, rewards) and ensure transactions are categorized consistently for accounting purposes.
- Build and maintain basic financial statements — income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow — with crypto holdings, gains/losses, and fiat activity properly represented.
- Support month-end close: journal entries, reconciliations, and supporting schedules.
- Help prepare audit workpapers, PBC (prepared-by-client) requests, and walkthroughs for our external auditors.
- Partner with the CFO on ad hoc analysis, treasury reporting, and process documentation.
What we’re looking for:
- 0–2 years of accounting, audit, or finance experience (Big 4 / regional firm experience a plus, but not required).
- Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field. CPA track is a plus.
- Working knowledge of GAAP and the mechanics of building financial statements from a trial balance.
- Real, demonstrable crypto fluency: you can read a block explorer, follow a transaction across wallets and contracts, and explain what a swap, bridge, or staking reward actually is on-chain.
- Comfort with CEX account exports and APIs, and the patience to reconcile messy data.
- Strong Excel/Google Sheets skills; bonus points for SQL, Python, or experience with crypto sub-ledgers (e.g., Cryptio, Bitwave, Integral, TRES).
- Detail-oriented, organized, and comfortable working independently in a remote, async environment.
Nice to have:
- Prior exposure to crypto audits or experience supporting a financial statement audit.
- Familiarity with DeFi protocols, staking, or validator economics.
- Experience with multi-entity or multi-currency accounting.
Why join?
- Work shoulder-to-shoulder with the CFO on a foundational moment for the company.
- Real ownership and visibility from day one.
- Fully remote, with a team that takes both crypto and accounting rigor seriously.
