Rugged Science builds ruggedized computers for the U.S. military and some of the most innovative industrial companies in the world — and business is growing fast. We’re looking for a hands-on, high-integrity Director of Accounting to work directly with our CFO and lead the effort on scaling our finance function.

This role combines tactical accounting work with strategic exposure — and it's designed for someone who wants to grow as the company grows. If you’ve got DCMA or government contracting experience, even better. CPA? Huge plus.

 

What You’ll Own

  • Full-cycle accounting: AR/AP, close process, and monthly financial reporting
  • Payroll, HR coordination, and sales tax filings
  • Cash flow forecasting and financial analysis
  • Customer onboarding documentation and supplier compliance
  • General ledger reconciliations and process improvements

What You Bring

  • BS in Accounting (CPA preferred)
  • 3+ years in progressive finance roles
  • Payroll and sales tax know-how
  • Experience in government contracting or DCMA environments a strong bonus
  • Analytical mindset, high attention to detail, and a team-first approach

Why Join Us

  • You’ll have executive visibility and help shape how finance runs
  • We reward initiative, precision, and accountability
  • This role is intended to grow into a Controller/CFO path
  • Competitive salary ($90K–$110K) and a family-first, laid-back culture
  • Excellent medical, dental, and dollar-for-dollar 6% 401K match

 

Make your next role count. Join a company building the future of rugged computing.
