About the role We’re looking for someone to tell Basis’s story.

You’ll work directly with our founders to communicate the Basis ethos with the world. We are at the frontier of applying agents to real world problems both for our customers and internally in our own work. Everyone at Basis knows that, your job will be to make sure the rest of the world knows that.

Location : NYC, Flatiron office. In-person team.

What You'll Do Write

Basis has a written-first culture, because we believe that to write clearly is to think clearly.

We like to write publicly (see here, here, and here) but we don’t do it nearly often enough. That changes with this role.

Our ideal candidate is an excellent writer who knows how to tell a compelling story and how to make even the most complex ideas feel simple.

Build our brand

You’ll define how the world sees Basis. We're creating new categories at the intersection of AI and accounting, which means there's no playbook to follow. You’ll establish our voice and figure out the stories we’re uniquely positioned to tell.

We want to be a generational company and need a brand that reflects that.

Bridge ML and accounting

We want to hire the best and brightest from across ML, accounting, and beyond. We also want to create a brand that stands out to prospective accounting clients.

You’ll be responsible for cementing Basis’ reputation as the undisputed thought leader in the AI Accounting space. This is uncharted territory. Expect to work through topics like what the accounting firm of the future looks like, or how a 1000x increase in accounting would change the world, and then to weave these into a cohesive brand narrative.

First principles reasoner:

Able to understand complex technical concepts and communicate them clearly without dumbing them down

All-in:
