Orca AI is transforming maritime operations through real-time AI and computer vision, delivering next-generation situational awareness and decision-making. Our platform connects onboard crews with shoreside teams, improving navigational safety, reducing human error, and supporting decarbonization through performance optimization.

Founded in 2018, Orca AI is a fast-growing scale-up in an incredibly strong position. We recently raised $73M in a Series B round (May 2025) and have over 1,100 systems deployed to industry giants like MSC, Seaspan, and NYK. What sets us apart is our data – over 100 million nautical miles of proprietary data, making it the largest maritime AI dataset in the world.

As we continue to scale rapidly, our finance team plays a critical role in ensuring accuracy, compliance, and strong financial operations across a global organization. We are looking for a highly motivated Assistant Controller (who reports to the Director of Finance) to join our Finance team and support the company’s accounting operations and financial infrastructure as we grow globally.

As an Associate Controller, your impact will be:

• Support monthly, quarterly, and annual financial closing processes, budget planning and analysis, cashflow management, and other day-to-day accounting activities.
• Work closely with the Director of Finance to ensure accurate financial reporting and compliance.
• Assist in implementing and improving financial processes as the company scales globally, identifying opportunities to leverage AI and automation tools to streamline accounting workflows. 
• Maintain and improve financial data accuracy across systems, with a strong focus on NetSuite.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams across Finance, Operations, and other departments.

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting and Certified Public Accountant (CPA) - must. 
• At least 1-2 years of accounting experience post-internship in a SaaS company or a high-growth startup environment.
• Working knowledge of US GAAP. 
• High proficiency with NetSuite - strong advantage.
• Fluent English (written and verbal) - must.
• Strong Excel skills, including advanced functions, data analysis, and reporting.
• Curiosity and ability to leverage AI tools to optimize and streamline accounting processes.
• Strong attention to detail and a high level of accuracy.
• Ability to work in a fast-paced, high-growth startup environment.
• Strong team player with a sense of ownership and accountability - a "whatever it takes to get the job done" mindset.
• Proactive problem-solver who brings solutions, not just issues, to the table.
