About the Company:
Tools for Humanity (TFH) designs and builds technology behind World. World is building a real human network designed to accelerate people in the age of AI. As bots and autonomous agents reshape the internet, people, institutions, and applications need a trusted way to confirm who is a real human while preserving privacy. The TFH and World tech stacks make this possible: the Orb verifies real, unique people, World ID proves it privately, and World App puts these capabilities, and more, in people’s hands. Together, they add a human layer to an AI-driven internet.
World is already running at a global scale. More than 17 million people across 160 countries have verified with World ID, and more new Orb verifications take place each week. World App is already among the most used wallets globally. Developers are integrating World ID to build safer online experiences and create spaces where real people can participate, earn, and be recognized in ways AI simply can’t replicate.
Founded in 2019, TFH has more than 400 people across hardware, software, AI, cryptography, mobile engineering, and global operations. Our teams come from OpenAI, Tesla, SpaceX, Apple, Google, Stripe, Meta, Coinbase, Palantir and MIT Media Lab. We’re backed by leading investors, including a16z, Khosla Ventures, Bain Capital Crypto, Blockchain Capital, Variant, Tiger Global, and Coinbase Ventures, as well as prominent operators and founders across fintech and AI.
TFH and World have been featured on the cover of TIME Magazine, highlighted in Fast Company’s Next 5 in Fintech, and explored in a Bloomberg deep dive.

Tools for Humanity is looking for a detail‑oriented and dependable Accountant to support our core AP and vendor operations. This is a hands-on role focused on accounts payable, PO creation, basic accounts receivable support, bank and card reconciliations, payment processing, accruals, and vendor coordination.
You will report to the Accounting Operations team and play a key role in ensuring accurate and timely processing of invoices and payments to support monthly and quarterly close cycles, without owning overall GL or technical accounting.
This role is based in India. To best support our global team, including colleagues in Munich and San Francisco, the person in this role is expected to begin their workday at 2 PM IST to allow collaboration time with teams in SF and Munich.
In This Role, You Will:
Create and manage purchase orders and ensure proper linkage between POs, receipts, and vendor invoices (where applicable).
Process and manage accounts payable, including invoice intake, review, coding, routing for approvals, and payment processing.
Support accounts receivable as needed, including basic invoicing, collections follow‑ups, and customer account reconciliations.
Perform bank and credit card reconciliations for assigned accounts and investigate routine discrepancies.
Prepare and post AP‑related accruals and journal entries as part of the close process, under guidance from senior accountants.
Coordinate and communicate with vendors regarding invoices, payment status, documentation requirements, and statement reconciliations.
Ensure accurate vendor master data, support vendor onboarding, and follow required checks for new vendors and banking details.
Support timely and accurate monthly, quarterly, and annual close activities by providing clean AP schedules and reconciliations.
Maintain organized, audit‑ready documentation to support internal controls and external audits.
Assist with ad hoc reporting and accounting projects as needed.
You Might Thrive in This Role If You Have:
2–3 years of accounting experience, with meaningful hands‑on time in accounts payable and invoice processing; experience in a startup, high‑growth, or public accounting environment is a plus.
Hands‑on experience with accounts payable, vendor management, bank reconciliations, and AP‑related accruals.
Experience with PO‑based AP and matching invoices to POs/receipts (preferred).
Basic understanding of U.S. GAAP principles and how they relate to AP and accruals.
Familiarity with tools such as Tipalti, Navan, Brex, Mercury, or similar finance platforms (preferred).
Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple tasks with accuracy and against deadlines.
Good communication skills and comfort working with cross‑functional teams and external vendors.
A Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.
