Job Description

About Us:

Daisy is building the future of living. As a full-stack, AI-native property management company for HOAs, co-ops, and condos, we're modernizing one of real estate's largest and most fragmented industries. By combining technology with exceptional service, we deliver greater transparency for boards, more efficient operations, and a better resident experience.

In just a few years, we've become the 8th largest property management company in NYC, expanded across the tri-state area, and now manage over 5,000 units and $200M+ in building budgets.

Backed by strong growth and recent financing, we're entering our next chapter of growth as we expand Daisy's AI-powered operating model nationwide.

Overview:

You've spent the last couple of years in public accounting learning how financials are built, audited, and stress-tested. You know your way around reconciliations, controls, and tight deadlines, and you're ready to do more than tie out someone else's numbers.

This role is for a sharp, early-career accountant who wants to own the books, not just audit them — someone out to revolutionize the day-to-day of accounting through automation and AI, doing in minutes what used to take a team. You'll manage financials for a portfolio of condo and co-op buildings while helping us build the tooling that lets a small team operate at a scale the rest of the industry can't touch. You'll work directly with senior finance leadership, get real ownership early, and have a front-row seat to how a modern finance function actually gets built. If "there has to be a faster and more accurate way to do this" is your default reaction to manual work, you'll fit right in.

Most accountants are leaving their roles to trade audit deadlines for a slower industry job. This isn't that. You'll get the ownership and exposure of a much more senior seat — direct work with finance leadership, visibility into M&A and systems projects, and a mandate to automate yourself out of the boring parts of the job. It's the rare early-career role where being technical and ambitious is the whole point.

What You’ll Do:

• Own building-level accounting for a portfolio of properties — reconciliations, journal entries, budget creation, strategic financial planning, and monthly close
• Produce accurate, timely financial reporting and support budgeting and forecasting for individual properties
• Investigate discrepancies, troubleshoot issues, and resolve financial and operational gaps before they become problems
• Build and improve automated workflows — we'd rather you fix the process than run it manually every month
• Use AI tools (Claude, Gemini for Google Sheets, and our internal tooling) to streamline reconciliations, reporting, and analysis
• Partner with senior team members and Account Management teams, and grow into a trusted point of contact for building boards
• Help us scale the finance function through systems and automation rather than headcount

What You Bring:

• 1–3 years of experience in public accounting (Big 4 or large regional firm), ideally in audit/assurance or accounting
• CPA or actively on the CPA track strongly preferred
• Accounting degree or formal accounting background
• Strong Excel skills and a real appetite for improving how things get done
• Genuine enthusiasm for AI and automation — you've experimented with these tools, or you're eager to and want a role that rewards it
• Builder mentality and comfort with ambiguity; you're energized, not paralyzed, by a fast-moving startup environment
• Strong communication skills and the maturity to grow into client-facing work
• Exposure to property, real estate, or NYC real estate compliance (tax abatements, RPIE, building audits) is a plus, not a requirement — we'll teach you the domain

Compensation:

This role offers a salary of $85K–$110K. Depending on experience and qualifications, along with equity, and a competitive benefits package.
