Senior Accountant — AI-Forward CPA Firm (Remote)
DeLucia CPA is a growing remote firm serving med spas, dentists, medical practices, and other closely held businesses. We provide accounting, advisory, and tax services, and we build AI into every workflow — monthly reviews, tie-outs, payroll summaries, workpaper prep. We're hiring a high-accountability accountant who reviews work, talks to clients, and already uses AI as a working tool. This is not a checklist bookkeeping job. You'll work directly with the owner, with real ownership from week one.
Responsibilities
- Take client books from junior-accountant prep to done: review, correct, resolve open items, and close
- Identify and correct accounting issues
- Run client calls and emails to resolve open items
- Assist with business (1120-S, 1120, 1065) and individual tax return prep and review
- Use AI tools daily to speed up reviews, analysis, and close processes
- Build repeatable review and close processes
- Guide junior accountants
Who we're looking for
- 3+ years in public accounting or client accounting services
- Strong QBO and/or Xero
- Some tax experience preferred (CCH Axcess)
- Already using AI in your accounting work — you have specific examples, not just interest
- Comfortable on the phone with clients, not just email
- Self-directed: you manage your own workload without daily check-ins
- Reliable. We expect consistent, honest hours and we notice gaps.
AI & Technology We are building an AI-enabled accounting firm. You should already be using ChatGPT, Claude, or similar tools in your workflow and want to go deeper. If AI feels like a threat or a gimmick to you, this isn't the right fit. Compensation & Schedule
- Salary: $60,000–$80,000, based on experience
- Full-time, 35–40 hours per week
- Fully remote
- Finalists complete a paid one-week trial on a real (anonymized) client file
Pay: $60,000.00 - $80,000.00 per year Application Question(s):
- Walk me through a specific accounting problem you solved faster or better because of AI. What was the problem, what tool did you use, and what was the output?"
- You're reviewing a client's books and notice net income is negative $16,000 for the month but revenue was $130,000. What's your process for diagnosing what went wrong?
