About GigSafe

The platform manages the full independent contractor lifecycle – including onboarding, background checks, insurance verification, credential monitoring and training, through a single system that integrates with dispatch and fleet management tools.
We are building financial infrastructure for the future of flexible work: helping companies pay independent contractors accurately, on time and in compliance – simplifying complex financial operations that historically slow businesses down. As we continue to grow, we are strengthening our finance team with a detail-oriented accountant who enjoys building clean systems, improving processes and supporting a high-performing team.

Startup Mentality: You're energized by ambiguity, not slowed down by it. When the playbook doesn't exist, you write it. You move fast, stay adaptable, and don't need perfect conditions to make progress.
Give a Sh*t: You care about the work, the customers, the contractors on the platform, and the people sitting next to you. You hold yourself to a high standard not because someone's watching, but because mediocrity bothers you.
Ownership: You treat the company's success as your own, because it is. You take responsibility for outcomes and close the loop without being asked. When something's broken, you fix it, even if it's not your job.
Collaborative: You make the people around you better. Low ego, high trust, and emotionally intelligent. You communicate directly, share credit generously, and don't create unnecessary friction for your teammates.
Critical Thinker: You connect dots, figure things out, and bring solutions, not just problems. You're resourceful and intellectually curious, and you don't need hand-holding to do great work.
Health, Dental & Vision: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage for employees and dependents
Unlimited PTO: Flexible time off plus paid company holidays
Competitive Compensation: Competitive base salary with opportunities for performance-based bonuses
401(k): Retirement savings plan
Equity: Stock options giving employees a meaningful stake in GigSafe's growth
Parental Leave: Paid leave for all new parents
