Assistant Controller (Remote, Canada)

Hopper is hiring an Assistant Controller to partner with the Global Corporate Controller at a critical inflection point — this is a builder role with a mandate to automate the close, build the data infrastructure connecting the warehouse to NetSuite, and design the reporting framework that bridges GAAP and management figures. You'll lead the external audit, own technical accounting, and provide oversight of the month-end close while operating with a high degree of independence. At Hopper, we build toward 100% automation with no exceptions- and this role is central to making that happen.

• Own technical accounting research and memo drafting across ASC 470 (convertible notes, warrants), ASC 606, ASC 842, SBC, new product accounting, and complex equity and financing transactions

• Lead end-to-end global audit management across all entities, serving as the primary external auditor liaison

• Design and implement the internal controls framework and drive SOX readiness

• Oversee the quality and GAAP compliance of the month-end close, identify gaps and exceptions, and hold the accounting operations team to a high standard

• Manage multi-entity, multi-currency consolidation, intercompany reconciliations, and transfer pricing compliance

• Map data flows from the warehouse into NetSuite, identify gaps, and collaborate with Engineering to automate the close

• Build and automate the reconciliation framework that bridges management and GAAP figures

• Deploy AI tools across the accounting function to eliminate manual work
