You are someone with a strong grasp of fund accounting strategy and technical GAAP nuances, who is also highly willing and capable of hands-on execution in the details. This means you will own technical fund accounting and financial reporting, as well as the end-to-end investor operations lifecycle. That lifecycle includes preparing capital call and distribution notices, drafting fund financial statements, owning investor-facing fund reporting, managing tax and compliance reporting, as well as responding to questions and requests from Redesign’s investors. You will bring human judgment to AI-native transformation projects while we both grow domestically and scale new international funds.

You make sound decisions, even in the absence of complete information, relying on a mix of analysis, wisdom, experience, and judgment. You consider all relevant factors, apply the right criteria and principles, and recognize when a quick 80% solution will do and when a call has to be exactly right. - **Tech Innovator**. You proactively leverage new systems and tools for extraordinary productivity. You are comfortable disrupting your own ways of working to improve the system, while knowing exactly where human judgment must override. - **Instills Trust**.
