About Gusto
At Gusto, we're on a mission to grow the small business economy. We handle the hard stuff — payroll, health insurance, 401(k)s, and HR — so owners can focus on their craft and their customers. With teams in Denver, San Francisco, and New York, we support more than 500,000 small businesses nationwide and are building a workplace that reflects the people we serve.
All full-time employees receive competitive base pay, benefits, and equity (RSUs) — because everyone who helps build Gusto should share in its success. Offer amounts are determined by role, level, and location. Learn more about our Total Rewards philosophy.
AI is a fundamental part of how work gets done at Gusto. We expect all team members to actively engage with AI tools relevant to their role and grow their fluency as the technology evolves. AI experience requirements vary by role and will be assessed during the interview process.
About the Role:
As a Revenue Accountant, you will be a critical contributor within the Revenue Accounting team, owning the end-to-end revenue recognition process for our Gusto Retirement segment while also lending support to new and emerging revenue products across the business. You will be responsible for accurate and timely revenue recognition in accordance with ASC 606, maintaining and reconciling subledger systems, and partnering cross-functionally with Operations, FP&A, Engineering, and Product teams to ensure financial integrity as we scale.
This is an exciting opportunity to be at the forefront of how modern accounting is done. You will have the chance to build and leverage AI tools and automation to streamline repetitive processes, eliminate manual work, and raise the bar on efficiency across the team. If you're someone who gets excited about making accounting faster and smarter — not just more accurate — this role is for you!
About the Team:
Our Revenue Accounting team is responsible for ensuring the accurate and timely recognition of revenue in accordance with relevant accounting standards. We are a collaborative, forward-thinking team focused on continuous improvement and leveraging technology and AI to streamline our close processes. As we continue to grow and introduce new products and partnerships, this role will be critical in maintaining the quality and integrity of our revenue close while helping shape the processes that support our next phase of growth.

Our cash compensation amount for this role is $87,660/yr to $108,114/yr in Denver & most major metro locations, and $106,385/yr to $131,208/yr for San Francisco & New York. Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors including candidate location, experience and expertise and may vary from the amounts listed above.
Gusto has physical office spaces in Denver, San Francisco, and New York City. Employees who are based in those locations will be expected to work from the office on designated days approximately 2-3 days per week (or more depending on role). The same office expectations apply to all Symmetry roles, Gusto's subsidiary, whose physical office is in Scottsdale.
Note: The San Francisco office expectations encompass both the San Francisco and San Jose metro areas.
When approved to work from a location other than a Gusto office, a secure, reliable, and consistent internet connection is required. This includes non-office days for hybrid employees.
Our customers come from all walks of life and so do we. We hire great people from a wide variety of backgrounds, not just because it's the right thing to do, but because it makes our company stronger. If you share our values and our enthusiasm for small businesses, you will find a home at Gusto.
