Remote, Oregon, Canada Metabase Full time $80,000 - $120,000 per year
Metabase is the easiest way for people to get insights from their data, from tiny startups who get up and running quickly to major corporations with tens of thousands of users. That's why people love us.
We bring data tools with the elegance and simplicity of consumer products to the crufty world of enterprise business intelligence. We provide an opinionated open source starting point for how companies should measure, analyze and share their data, which is used by tens of thousands of companies.
Metabase's BizOps & Finance team is a small, high-leverage group that builds the systems keeping the company running smoothly behind the scenes. We cover a wide range of areas — finance and accounting, sales operations, legal operations, compliance, and account management — but we treat them all as flavors of operations. Whatever the task, we take a systems-driven approach — design it, build it, and run it (ideally, automatically). Our goal is to free the rest of the company to focus on building great software.
We're looking to add a strong generalist who thrives in fast-moving, ambiguous environments and enjoys bringing order to complexity. You'll work across functions, manage external partners, and help us build and run the systems that keep Metabase operating efficiently as we grow.
This particular role will focus on our financial operations — managing the month-end close with external accountants, supporting tax and audit processes, and improving the systems that keep our books and billing accurate. You don't need to come from a traditional finance background — we care more about your ability to learn quickly, solve problems systematically, and keep complex operations running smoothly. You'll have meaningful exposure to the financial management of a growing company and plenty of opportunities to design better, smarter ways of doing things as we scale. Responsibilities
  • Own and operate the day-to-day processes that keep our financial operations running smoothly
  • Manage the month-end close process with our external accountants
  • Support annual financial audits and coordinate deliverables with our auditors
  • Prepare data and track progress for tax filings across multiple jurisdictions
  • Maintain financial data hygiene
  • Own our payments and expense management systems
  • Lead cross-functional projects to solve operational problems as they arise
  • Identify opportunities to streamline or automate recurring workflows
  • Jump in to help with other operational areas when needed — we're a small team, and we all pitch in
About you
  • You're a high-performing operations generalist who enjoys learning new domains and getting up to speed quickly
  • You're organized and detail-oriented — you get satisfaction from checking things off your list and can balance multiple threads of work
  • You're comfortable working with numbers to get to the right answer
  • You build strong relationships with external partners and / or customers
  • You like solving ambiguous problems and creating order from chaos
  • You think in systems: you like figuring out how things fit together and how to make them run better
  • You've gone beyond entry-level tasks and are looking for a role where you can grow by tackling new problems and taking initiative
  • Low-ego attitude: no job should be too small or too large
  • Based in the US or Canada
  • Nice-to-have: some familiarity with accounting principles or coursework
We're a global team (50% outside the US), fully distributed (from Thailand to California), who get things done asynchronously, with plenty of uninterrupted time, supporting each other to do the best work of our careers. We offer flexibility (define your own schedule and work from wherever you want), autonomy, and an environment that fosters growth, learning, and development. We're relentlessly user-focused and believe in building long-term value, not short-term hacks. And we raised a $30M Series B to take our approach to the next level for years to come.
For U.S. applicants: Metabase participates in the federal E-Verify program, which confirms employment authorization of newly hired U.S. based employees. E-Verify is not used as a tool to pre-screen candidates and is only initiated upon hire.
E-Verify Participation Notice (English/Spanish) Right to Work Notice (English/Spanish) We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.
