Company Overview

At Veo, our mission is to end car dependency by making clean transportation accessible to all. A leading shared micromobility provider in North America, Veo provides millions of bike and scooter rides annually in over 60 cities and universities from Los Angeles to New York City.

Veo offers the most diverse and accessible vehicle fleet in the country built to expand who can ride and what trips are possible. We design and manufacture our vehicles, hardware, and software systems in-house and operate our local markets directly to ensure safe and reliable service. As the first profitable micromobility company in North America, Veo is built for long-term growth and partnership with cities.

Veo has been recognized as one of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies and a Top GreenTech Company by TIME. As we continue to scale, we are looking for exceptionally talented individuals who are excited to help shape the next era of micromobility.

Role Overview:

Veo is hiring an experienced Staff Accountant (2–3+ years of relevant experience) to support our fast-growing micromobility operations within the Finance Team. This is not a clerical role — it is a hands-on, high-ownership position for someone who wants exposure across accounting, finance, compliance, and operational support in a lean, performance-driven startup environment.  This is a unique opportunity to play an important role in scaling the company during its rapid growth. You will own core accounting service functions (AP, AR, expense management) while supporting monthly close, financial reporting, compliance, vendor procurement administration, and business operations processes. You will work cross-functionally with Operations, HR, Legal, and external partners to ensure financial accuracy, internal controls, and regulatory compliance. This role will report to the Senior Accounting Manager, with additional supervision by the Finance Manager and Sr. Accountant.
