As our business grows, we're looking for an Accounting Assistant to support day-to-day accounting operations, cross-train in both Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable, and gradually take on greater responsibility in inventory reconciliation and reporting. We're not looking for someone who already knows everything. We're looking for someone who is careful, dependable, comfortable with numbers, and willing to learn . If you enjoy getting the details right, staying organized, and following a problem through until it makes sense, you may be a great fit for our team. What You'll Do Learn and support both Accounts Payable (AP) and Accounts Receivable (AR), providing backup support across the Accounting team. Process and maintain vendor/customer invoices, payments, credit memos, and supporting documentation. Review invoices, purchase orders, receipts, and accounting records for accuracy and completeness. Assist with bank, credit card, customer, and vendor account reconciliations. Learn and gradually take ownership of inventory reconciliation and inventory-related reporting .

Work with Warehouse, Purchasing, Sales, and other departments to resolve accounting and inventory discrepancies. Prepare and maintain basic financial, sales, and inventory reports using Excel. Review data for errors, missing information, inconsistencies, or unusual transactions. Maintain organized accounting records and assist with month-end, year-end, and tax preparation as needed. What We're Looking For 1+ year of accounting, bookkeeping, AP/AR, administrative, data-entry, or related experience preferred. Basic accounting knowledge is helpful, but we're open to candidates who are still developing their experience. Strong Microsoft Excel skills required , including formulas, sorting, filtering, and working comfortably with spreadsheets; PivotTables are a plus. QuickBooks or ERP experience preferred, but not required — we can train the right person. Strong attention to detail and accuracy, with the patience to work through detailed or repetitive tasks. Organized, comfortable with numbers, and able to investigate discrepancies rather than simply pass them along. Willing to learn both AP and AR and take ownership of assigned work through resolution. Experience with inventory, reconciliation, manufacturing, distribution, or warehouse operations is a plus. Bilingual English/Chinese is a plus. Must be authorized to work in the United States without current or future employer sponsorship.
