Who are we?
FalconX is a pioneering team of operators, investors, and builders committed to revolutionizing institutional access to the crypto markets. Operating at the intersection of traditional finance and
cutting-edge technology, FalconX addresses the industry's foremost challenges: Navigating the digital asset market can be complex and fragmented, with limited products and services that support trading strategies, structures, and liquidity found in conventional financial markets. As a comprehensive solution for all digital asset strategies from start to scale, FalconX operates as the connective tissue empowering clients with seamless navigation through the ever-
evolving cryptocurrency landscape. We are looking for more than a standard GAAP researcher; we need a Financial Architect who excels as both an analytical investigator and an operational leader in the role of Senior Manager, Financial Reporting and Technical Accounting .

You aren’t just maintaining books - you are building and managing a definitive "source of truth" within a complex, high-volume trading and regulated derivatives environment. This role is a 50/50 split between serving as an advanced technical expert and an operational manager, bridging the gap between cutting-edge trading desks and institutional-grade, regulated financial statements.

Capital Markets Readiness: Lead the project management and drafting of sophisticated financial disclosures and MD&A for potential registration statements, S-1/F-1 prospectus disclosures, and SEC engagements.
Global Systems Optimization: Design, implement, and monitor SOPs for offshore teams and direct reports, while tightening the integration between our crypto sub-ledgers and NetSuite to improve month-end cadence.
Target Experience & Skills
Background: Proven track record transitioning from Big 4 Audit/Technical Desks into Accounting Advisory (e.g., CFGI, FTI, EY, KPMG) or In-House Accounting leadership at a high-growth digital assets firm, FinTech startup, broker-dealer, or Investment Bank.
Regulated Entities Expertise: Direct, hands-on experience handling financial record keeping, regulatory capital computations, and filing frameworks for a CFTC Swap Dealer , Futures Commission Merchant (FCM), or SEC Broker-Dealer.
People & Project Management: Experience managing multiple departments or workstreams, with a proven ability to lead large, high-priority projects and delegate effectively to direct reports or offshore teams.
Reconstructive Mindset: You enjoy the "puzzle" of managing and building legal entity financials from high-volume, unstructured data sources.
