Senior Accountant

Here at Berkeley Lights, we think cells are awesome! Cells are capable of manufacturing cures for diseases, fibers for clothing, energy in the form of biofuels, and food proteins for nutrition. So the question is, if nature is capable of manufacturing the products we need in a scalable way, why aren’t we doing more of this? Well, the answer is that with the solutions available today, it is hard. Berkeley Lights is here to change all of that! Our extremely sophisticated proprietary technology and Beacon® and LightningTM systems accelerate the rate researchers can discover and develop cell-based products in a fraction of the time and at a fraction of the cost of conventional, legacy research methods. Using our tools and solutions, scientists can find the best cells, the first time they look.   Our goal is to continue to collaborate with customers to drive the adoption of our technologies, making cell-based products and therapeutics more easily accessible the world over! You will play a major role here within the finance team, and our success will depend on you! We have been changing how the world develops cell-based products since 2011, and now our family of over 250 employees welcomes you to consider joining us on this incredible journey. Our company is currently experiencing rapid growth and we are seeking an experienced Senior Accountant to join our accounting and finance team. The Senior Accountant will report to the Senior Accounting Manager and be responsible for maintaining and controlling General Ledger accounts and business transactions, creating journal entries and assembling supporting documentation, as well as for tracking the contents of accounts. This individual will be an individual contributor, but will work closely with other members of the accounting and finance organization with the objective of delivering a high level of accuracy, integrity and timeliness.
