Spreedly is the world's leading Open Payments Platform. Founded in 2007 and headquartered in Durham, NC, the company gives mid-market and enterprise businesses the infrastructure to connect to any payment gateway, processor, or fraud tool through a single API. The platform is vendor-agnostic by design, meaning customers are never locked into a single provider and never need to rebuild their payments stack to access new capabilities.

The core business problem Spreedly solves is real and costly: global merchants face a fragmented payments ecosystem, where every new market, payment method, or fraud tool typically requires a separate, time-consuming integration. Spreedly eliminates that complexity, enabling companies to route transactions intelligently, secure cardholder data, prevent fraud, and expand into new markets without heavy engineering overhead.

Spreedly is looking for a Controller to lead our accounting function and help build a more automated, scalable operating environment. Reporting to the VP of Finance, you'll own accounting across the business while partnering closely with FP&A and cross-functional leaders.

This is an opportunity for an experienced accounting leader who wants meaningful autonomy, enjoys solving complex problems, and knows what great systems and processes look like. Our usage-based model — including contracts with commitments, overages, and usage billed in arrears — creates accounting challenges beyond those found in a typical SaaS environment. You'll be the steward of our finance systems, including NetSuite, Orb, and Ramp, and a driving force behind modernizing how the accounting function runs, including where automation and AI tools can remove manual work.

Lead the accounting function, with responsibility for accurate books and a timely, consistent close

Oversee core accounting areas including financial statements, accounts receivable, accounts payable, payroll, revenue recognition, treasury, tax, and audit

Own and improve the accounting systems stack, including NetSuite, Orb, and Ramp, ensuring data integrity across integrations

Build scalable processes and controls that support the company as it grows, including SOC 2 / audit readiness

Navigate accounting for usage-based contracts, including commitments, overages, and billing in arrears

Review SaaS and usage-based customer contracts for revenue recognition impact under ASC 606, partnering with Legal and Sales on rev rec-sensitive terms

Lead and develop the accounting team, including determining the most effective reporting structure

Partner cross-functionally with FP&A, Legal, Revenue Operations, Business Operations, and other teams on contracts and business decisions

Own the annual financial statement audit and any tax examinations, coordinating with external auditors and tax advisors

Oversee corporate tax compliance (income, sales/use, and other filings) in partnership with outside tax advisors

Bring a clear point of view on what good looks like and translate it into better systems, processes, and team practices

Hands-on experience using AI tools (e.g., Claude, Gemini) or AI-enabled workflows to improve accounting operations

Strong knowledge of close management, financial reporting, revenue recognition (including ASC 606), and core accounting operations

Ability to think quickly, operate autonomously, and work effectively in a fast-paced environment

Experience in a startup, SMB, or mid-market environment where you have owned a wide range of accounting responsibilities

Optional vision and supplemental insurance options, and various Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA)

Monthly home working/digital lifestyle stipend, new MacBook, and one-time accessory reimbursement

Spreedly provides an open payments platform. The platform’s connectivity provides payments performance. Key products and services include:

Connect — A unified API that integrates with hundreds of payment gateways, processors, and alternative payment methods worldwide, including digital wallets. Merchants access the global payments ecosystem through one connection.

Vault — A PCI-compliant secure repository for payment methods. Merchants store card data once and reuse it across any payment service, reducing PCI scope and protecting cardholder data at scale.

Optimize — Workflow-driven routing and retry logic that directs each transaction to the best-performing gateway in real time. On average, 7.9% of failed transactions succeed immediately when retried on a secondary gateway. This is where merchants recover lost revenue and increase authorization success rates.

Protect — A flexible fraud and authentication layer, incorporating advanced fraud tools and 3DS. Following Spreedly's acquisition of Dodgeball in September 2025, fraud orchestration and payment optimization now operate within the same platform.

Resolve — Centralized management and reporting that reduces operational silos, strengthens security, and improves billing control across a merchant's entire payment operation.

We describe our team as "Spreedlings": diverse, forward-thinking, and driven by a shared belief that a more open payments ecosystem benefits everyone. The company operates with a culture built on transparency, courageous collaboration, and self-driven leadership. The team values simplicity in both product and process, and approaches problem-solving with genuine curiosity.

We champion the ethical, creative use of AI—if you’re someone who pairs human judgment with modern AI tools to work smarter and drive bigger impact, you’ll thrive here.

Spreedly is an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to fostering, cultivating, and preserving a culture of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging. We actively work to drive out even unintentional discrimination in our hiring processes via practices like blindly graded work samples, structured interviews, and diversity awareness training.

Due to the sensitive nature of what Spreedly does - handling payment data - finalist candidates must complete a successful background and reference check.

At this time Spreedly is unable to provide sponsorship for employment, and we are not set up to support remote employees who reside in New York. In order to be considered for employment, applicants must be currently legally authorized to work in the job location country and not require future sponsorship in order to continue working in that country.

We appreciate your interest in our company. Because of the high volume of resume flow, we may only respond to those candidates that we think will be a potential fit.
