Simulating fermionic systems on quantum hardware requires compiling fermionic Hamiltonians into executable quantum circuits. Existing approaches treat each compilation stage independently, applying heuristics with localized objectives that produce circuits with superquartic gate count and depth scaling and compilation times reaching several hours for large instances. We present Accordion, an end-to-end framework that co-designs the fermion-to-qubit mapping with circuit synthesis and hardware routing. Accordion fixes the Jordan Wigner mapping, which despite its higher Pauli weight produces Pauli operators with structural regularity that enables provably efficient circuit generation. For full-rank all-to-all electronic structure Hamiltonians, we prove O(N^4) gate count and circuit depth, matching the information-theoretic lower bound imposed by the Theta(N^4) second excitation terms. On linear, IBM heavy-hex, and square-grid architectures, Accordion reduces gate count by up to 79% and circuit depth by up to 77% relative to the best baseline.
