You ran the payroll.</li>\n<li>Demonstrated knowledge of U.S. federal and multi-state payroll tax regulations: withholding, wage and hour laws, state-specific requirements.</li>\n<li>Experience preparing payroll journal entries and reconciling payroll to general ledger accounts.</li>\n<li>Advanced Excel: you build reconciliations, use VLOOKUP/INDEX-MATCH, pivot tables, and can clean messy data without asking for help.</li>\n<li>Track record of meeting strict, non-negotiable deadlines in a self-directed environment.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold\">Strongly Preferred:</span></p>\n<ul>\n<li>Experience administering employee benefits (health insurance, 401(k), qualifying life events, open enrollment).</li>\n<li>Experience supporting payroll for international employees through an Employer of Record (EOR) specifically Canada and India.</li>\n<li>Familiarity with UKG or BambooHR HRIS/payroll systems.</li>\n<li>Post-secondary education in Accounting, Payroll, Finance, or a related field.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><br><br></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold\">A Note on AI-Assisted Preparation </span></p>\n<ul>\n<li>We know candidates use AI tools to prepare for interviews, and we support that - for research, for organizing your thoughts, or for practicing your delivery.</li>\n<li>What does <span style=\"font-weight: bold\"><em>not</em></span> work: reading AI-generated answers from a script, using a teleprompter fed by the job description, or describing projects you did not personally lead.</li>\n<li>Our interview questions are designed to go one or two levels deeper than any job description can feed. We will ask about specific decisions you made, problems you hit, and what you would do differently. The best preparation is reviewing your own work history, not generating responses from ours.</li>\n<li>We are not testing whether you memorized the right phrases. We are testing whether you have actually done this work.</li>\n</ul>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold\">What We Offer</span></p>\n<p>Base salary: $60,000 - $70,000.
