About the Accounting Team
Mixpanel's Accounting team owns the month-end close, financial reporting, and technical accounting across our global operations. A small, high-impact function, the team manages end-to-end close governance, audit readiness, and compliance across the Americas, EMEA, and APAC. We take pride in delivering accurate, timely financials that our business partners can trust—and we're building the processes and systems to scale with the company.
About the Role
The Senior Technical Accountant will own Mixpanel's most technically complex accounting workstreams, including revenue recognition, equity accounting, and consolidated financial reporting. This is a dedicated role for a technically strong accountant who can operate independently, advise cross-functional partners on accounting implications, and ensure our highest-risk close areas are covered with rigor and accuracy.
Reporting to the Controller, this individual will be a trusted subject matter expert across ASC 606, stock-based compensation, and group financial statement preparation—partnering closely with FP&A, Legal, and external auditors to deliver accurate, well-controlled financials every period. As the company grows, this role will evolve into a broader technical accounting function, with the expectation that this person will help shape that buildout.
