Our team develops and operates the business cloud service Money Forward Cloud Accounting Plus. Cloud Accounting Plus is committed to the mid-term vision of accounting that grows and connects with business, continuously improving the product so that the accounting department becomes the engine of corporate growth.
The team is based in Kansai, with members located in Osaka and Kyoto. It is a mixed team of Japanese and non-Japanese members, and meetings are conducted in English.
