About the Role
DE Shaw would rather pay $69,000 - $100,000 for a Senior Accountant who prevents surprises than clean up after them. The finance charter, the $69,000 - $100,000, the 7-year ask — all of it points to a DE Shaw role built for owners, not order-takers.
Key Responsibilities
- Run the cost-accounting layer beneath every finance product line
- Keep capital-expenditure approvals flowing without losing the paper trail
- Build the $69,000 - $100,000 budget line and defend each assumption behind it
- Build the senior analyst's first reconciliation checklist from scratch
- Keep deferred revenue schedules airtight as contracts renew
- Own the tax provision and the footnotes that explain it
- Review contracts and invoices for accuracy before payment release
What You'll Bring
- Flexibility to adapt your approach as business needs evolve
- Professionalism, integrity, and discretion with sensitive information
- Comfort presenting to a LA-wide audience without a script
- Strong time-management skills and a bias toward action
- A Shreveport network, or the hustle to build one from scratch
- Strong multitasking ability without sacrificing quality
- At least 7 years of standing behind your own estimates
A customer-obsessed startup out of Shreveport, DE Shaw is rethinking what finance software can be. We'd rather coach a sharp-but-gentle learner than babysit a brilliant jerk, every single time.
Yours for the taking: $69,000 - $100,000, a mentor, a benefits plan, and the room to grow your Emotional Intelligence and DCF Analysis side by side.
Right now, today, this seat at DE Shaw is genuinely empty and waiting.
We review every application carefully, so don't wait to submit yours.
