Patreon strives to provide creators with insight, education, and tools that make it possible to retain creative control while running their creative business, so creators can focus on creating and energizing their fanbases.

- Manage accounting for stock compensation and other equity related activities.
Skills and experience you possess:
- 5 years of relevant work experience, ideally with both private and public companies.
- Experience with stock options and restricted stock units.
