Chartered Accountant

JOB DESCRIPTION

Chartered Accountant

Company SecNinjaz Technologies LLP Location Delhi — On-site

Type Full-time Experience 0–2 years post-qualification

Role Summary

SecNinjaz Technologies LLP is a fast-scaling, Made-in-India cybersecurity and AI-native technology venture. We are hiring a Chartered Accountant to own the finance function of a growing startup — running day-to-day accounting and statutory compliance while building the financial backbone that a venture-funded company needs. You will be the finance partner to the founders: turning our numbers into a credible story for the pitch deck, running the diligence room for investors, and keeping the books audit-ready as we raise and grow. This is a hands-on, high-ownership role for someone who is comfortable both closing the books and sitting across the table from a term-sheet.

Key Responsibilities

Core accounting & compliance

• Own accounting entries, ledgers, and reconciliations; lead monthly and annual book closures (Financial Reporting).

• Manage GST, TDS, and Income Tax computations, filings, and assessments end-to-end.

• Prepare and finalise financial statements in line with Indian Accounting Standards (Ind AS).

• Maintain the books in Zoho Books; drive automation and clean, real-time financial data.

• Design and enforce Financial Controls — approval matrices, spend policies, and process discipline suited to a scaling startup.

• Coordinate statutory, internal, and tax audits; liaise with auditors and close observations promptly.

• Handle FEMA and cross-border matters — foreign remittances, ODI/FDI reporting, and compliance for overseas transactions.

Startup, fundraising & investor readiness

• Build the financial model, unit economics, and MIS that underpin the pitch deck and board reporting.

• Prepare and manage the data room for due diligence; support investors and their advisors through financial, tax, and compliance diligence.

• Track cap table hygiene, runway, and burn; produce cash-flow forecasts and scenario plans for fundraising decisions.

• Advise founders on the financial implications of pricing, hiring, and structuring rounds (SAFE, convertible, priced equity).

• Ensure the startup stays audit-ready and investor-ready at all times as it raises and grows.

• Guide and review the work of junior finance staff as the team expands.

Required Qualifications & Skills

• Qualified Chartered Accountant (ICAI membership).

• 0–2 years of post-qualification experience in accounting, taxation, and compliance.

• Strong command of Ind AS, GST, TDS, Income Tax, and Companies Act provisions.

• Hands-on proficiency in Zoho Books and advanced MS Excel / financial modelling.

• Proven experience in Financial Reporting, Financial Controls, and audit coordination.

• Working knowledge of FEMA and cross-border / international taxation.

Preferred — The Startup Edge

• Experience in a startup, high-growth, or venture-backed environment.

• Exposure to fundraising, investor due diligence, pitch deck financials, or cap-table management.

• Background in the IT, technology, or cybersecurity sector.

• Familiarity with ERP-based accounting, transfer pricing, and internal controls.

• Strong analytical ability, ownership mindset, and clear stakeholder communication.

What We Offer

• Full ownership of the finance function with direct, daily visibility to the founders.

• A front-row seat to fundraising — shape the pitch deck, sit in investor rooms, and help steer the startups growth.

• Competitive compensation aligned to experience and market benchmarks.

• Room to grow into a finance-leadership role in a Made-in-India, AI-native cybersecurity company.
