Who Are You?

We are seeking a strategic and gritty financial leader to serve as our Chief Financial Officer. As a key member of the executive team, you will be the architect of our financial vision: leading with sharp precision, steady foresight, and an unyielding drive to fuel long-term growth and value creation. This is not a stewardship role alone; it’s an opportunity to shape the economic engine of a company that is redefining the vertical enterprise SaaS landscape.

You’ll be expected to think expansively, operate with conviction, and make high-impact decisions under pressure. Your leadership will be critical in building confidence with our board, investors, customers, and employees alike.

Key Responsibilities:

• Strategic Financial Leadership: Drive financial strategy, modeling, forecasting, and performance metrics in alignment with company goals. Translate business priorities into a sustainable and scalable financial framework.
• Capital Management: Lead fundraising initiatives and investor relations in close partnership with the CEO. Ensure we are capitalized for the next stage of growth and well-positioned to seize future opportunities.
• Operational Excellence: Own all financial operations including FP&A, accounting, tax, treasury, audit, and risk management. Build a disciplined financial culture that supports rapid growth without sacrificing rigor.
• Business Partnership: Partner across product, sales, operations, and customer success to align financial strategy with day-to-day execution. Support data-driven decision-making throughout the organization.
• Team Building: Recruit, develop, and lead a high-performing finance team. Mentor future finance leaders and instill a culture of accountability, urgency, and continuous improvement.
• Compliance & Governance: Ensure all reporting and regulatory requirements are met with precision. Prepare the company for future stages of maturity including potential IPO readiness.

Qualifications:

• 5+ years of proven experience as a CFO or senior financial executive in a high-growth SaaS environment, ideally at the Series C and on stages.
• Deep understanding of SaaS metrics, pricing models, and enterprise customer dynamics.
• High level of comfort using LLMs and modern A.I. tools; a “new generation” mindset around financial tooling
• Successful track record of scaling finance operations and leading capital raises.
• Strong command of financial systems, controls, and compliance in a startup-to-growth transition.
• A balance of analytical rigor, commercial savvy, and operational grit.
• Experience with setting up global entities
• Exceptional communication skills—confident and clear in executive rooms, board meetings, and Company All Hands meetings.
• A steady hand in ambiguity, with a bias for action and a readiness to tackle hard truths head-on.
• Experience with Carta, Ramp, Netsuite, and Planful is ideal.

Benefits and Perks:

• The big-picture value proposition of this role is simple: join us, and you’ll be paid competitively to have freedom in solving worthwhile, challenging problems alongside other A-players at a fast growing SaaS startup led by an experienced and successful co-founding team with industry experience.

Other benefits include:

• Adventure travel stipend - you receive a $1,000 travel reimbursement on your work anniversary each year. We encourage our team to recharge and explore the world beyond their home office walls.
• Remote, work-from-anywhere culture
