Scope

In terms of scope, you'll establish the accounting and reporting foundation we need to scale, own compliance across tax jurisdictions, and help steer the business with accurate metrics.

Responsibilities

  • Ensure correct accounting and bookkeeping practices are followed consistently, and identify gaps in our current processes
  • Get us on top of tax obligations at the state and country level as we expand across markets
  • Own financial metrics used to steer business decisions, ensuring they are accurately defined, computed, and reported
  • Produce financial documentation for fundraising, board reporting, and investor relations
  • Oversee procurement integrity — confirming that received hardware and services match against purchase orders and payments
  • Audit server hardware, colocation, and software license billing to ensure we're being billed correctly
  • Confirm commissions and other incentive compensation are calculated accurately
  • Identify and drive improvements to billing cycle complexity and other operational inefficiencies

Requirements

  • 5+ years of finance experience, with meaningful time as a controller, VP of Finance, or CFO
  • Hands-on experience with accounting, bookkeeping, and financial reporting — not just oversight
  • Track record of managing multi-jurisdiction tax compliance (US state + international)
  • Experience building or formalizing finance operations at a startup or high-growth company
  • Strong analytical skills and comfort owning the metrics and models leadership relies on
  • Willingness to work at a scrappy pace and do things yourself before delegating

Nice to have

  • Experience with usage-based billing models or SaaS revenue recognition
  • CPA, CFA, or MBA, or similar
  • Prior experience in fintech, trading, or a high-growth tech startup
  • Experience preparing materials for fundraising rounds

Benefits

  • Health, dental, disability, and life insurance benefits
  • 401(k) matching for full-time employees
  • Accommodates 100% remote work

Pay

Compensation is competitive and commensurate with experience.
