Full Job Description

QE Solar is one of the nation's largest independent solar and BESS operations and maintenance providers, with over 15 years of operating experience. We manage 10 GW of solar and 7.5 GWh of BESS across 44 states, supporting asset owners with multi-hundred MW utility solar projects and large standalone BESS systems. We're pure-play O&M. That focus means our entire organization is built around one thing: keeping solar and storage assets running well. Our technicians carry broad OEM certifications, and our in-house capabilities span MV/HV electrical, vegetation management, engineering, and capital improvements, to streamline asset management for project owners.

QE Solar is seeking a detail-oriented and motivated Junior Accountant to support core general ledger accounting and daily cash operations for our growing, multi-entity organization. This is an entry-level, hands-on GL role suited to a recent accounting graduate or an experienced bookkeeper ready to step into accounting. The right candidate will live in the general ledger, own cash clearing and bank reconciliations, and help keep our month-end close on schedule and audit-ready. We're looking for a strong grounding in GAAP, a bias for clean and timely reconciliations, and the discipline to chase down and resolve discrepancies without being asked twice.

Key Responsibilities

General Ledger & GAAP

Prepare, review, and post journal entries in accordance with GAAP.
Maintain accurate and complete general ledger records across multiple entities.
Own assigned balance sheet account reconciliations, with clear support and documentation.
Apply GAAP principles to recurring transactions and flag items requiring technical judgment to the Controller.
Assist with monthly, quarterly, and year-end close processes and supporting schedules.

Cash & Bank Reconciliation

Perform daily and monthly bank reconciliations across all operating and entity accounts.
Clear cash daily — match deposits, payments, and transfers; identify and resolve unreconciled and in-transit items.
Investigate and clear reconciling items promptly, escalating aged or unexplained items.
Maintain accurate cash records and ensure the GL ties to bank activity at close.
Support cash positioning and reporting as needed.

Accounts Payable & Receivable

Process vendor invoices and employee expense reports.
Assist with customer invoicing and collections activities.
Ensure timely and accurate payment processing.
Reconcile vendor statements and customer accounts.

Financial Reporting & Compliance

Assist in preparing financial reports and supporting schedules.
Maintain audit-ready records and accounting documentation.
Support data gathering for internal and external audits.
Ensure compliance with company policies and accounting procedures.
Identify and implement improvements to reconciliation and close workflows.

Qualifications

This is an entry-level accounting role open to a range of backgrounds. We'll consider recent graduates with a degree in Accounting or Finance, as well as experienced bookkeepers (senior bookkeeper level) looking to grow into accounting. A degree is a plus but not required — strong hands-on experience with general ledger work and account reconciliations carries equal weight.
Working knowledge of GAAP and core accounting principles.
Demonstrated experience performing bank reconciliations and clearing cash, or coursework/internship exposure for recent graduates.
Strong attention to detail and organizational skills.
Proficiency in Microsoft Excel.
Experience with ERP systems such as NetSuite preferred.
Ability to manage multiple priorities and meet deadlines.
Strong communication and problem-solving skills.

Preferred Experience

Experience supporting multi-entity organizations.
Exposure to project-based accounting, construction, energy, or service industries.
Familiarity with high-volume reconciliation environments.
