SkyWater is thrilled to be partnering with one of its favorite clients on a Technical Accounting Lead opportunity!
This company truly knows how to take care of its employees. Free lunch every day. Beautiful office space. 100% covered health insurance for employees and families. 8% 401(k) match. Unlimited PTO. I could go on and on. We’ve placed multiple people with this team over the years, and the retention speaks for itself – people genuinely love working here.
From a role perspective, this is a great opportunity for someone with an active CPA and strong technical accounting / public company accounting experience who enjoys digging into accounting research and memo writing. The role will support technical accounting matters across the business, including GAAP research, SEC / SOX support, accounting policy, financial reporting, and special projects, with exposure to more complex areas like derivatives and consolidations.
We are open on industry and would absolutely consider someone coming straight out of public accounting if the technical skill set is there.

A growing global leader in high-precision motion control technology has partnered with us exclusively to find a technically sharp, self-driven Product Marketing Manager to join their Minneapolis-area team.
This company builds advanced motion control systems used inside the most demanding machines on the planet – semiconductor manufacturing, genome sequencing, laser microprocessing, and electronics production. Their products are trusted by OEM engineers who need sub-nanometer precision and zero tolerance for failure. They’re small enough that every person on the team has real impact, and experienced enough (40+ years) that you’ll have senior mentors who’ve already walked the path you’re on.
This is a role open due to promotion, built and shaped by the hiring manager who had this role previously. You’ll step in with a clear runway, an existing content library, and a team with 20+ years of combined product marketing experience across the US, Germany, and Israel. Day one you’re driving go-to-market execution, building out a technical content library, and getting hands-on with voice-of-customer research across a global OEM customer base. Base pay starting at $120k+.
Minneapolis-area location preferred. Remote will be considered for candidates with direct motion control industry backgrounds.

Participation in settlement conferences and negotiations and experience with trial preparation is preferred.
The ideal candidate will have a positive attitude, strong interpersonal skills, an exceptional work ethic, and must be comfortable having direct interaction with partners and clients. The firm seeks a well-rounded, dynamic, highly motivated lawyer who has demonstrated an ability to thrive in a sophisticated practice in a busy, collaborative environment, to assist with advancing the long-term strategic objectives of its Litigation Department. The firm values collegiality, creativity, and intellectual curiosity among its lawyers and seeks to make the practice both professionally and personally rewarding.
Requirements Top academics required. Candidates must hold a JD from an ABA-approved law school and must be in good standing and an active member of the Florida Bar. Interested applicants should submit a resume, law school transcript, and writing sample.
Compensation & Benefits The expected salary range for this position is $240,000–$290,000.

The firm offers a comprehensive benefits program that currently includes medical, dental, and vision insurance; 401(k) retirement; disability and life insurance; adoption assistance; and backup care for dependents.
