About the job Our mission Boom is on a mission to level the playing field for the 110+ million renters in the US by making housing more flexible, affordable, and rewarding.

We’re open to two profiles: a Sr. Manager ready to step into a Controller seat and prove themselves through AI-driven execution, or an experienced Controller who is genuinely hungry to go deep on AI — and can show it. Either way, you must be excited about building, not just running, the accounting function. This role is based in Austin, TX and reports directly to the CFO What You’ll Do Own all aspects of accounting operations, including monthly close, reconciliations, and financial reporting.

Design and deploy AI agents for A/R, A/P, and reconciliation workflows — building automations that reduce manual touch points and accelerate the close. Evaluate, implement, and maintain automation and AI-based tools to improve close speed, accuracy, and financial visibility.
