The Role

The Director of Finance is the company’s senior hands-on finance leader and reports directly to the CEO. You will have strong financial accounting/controller experience, enjoy being very hands-on, and have good business sense.

You will:

• Own the monthly financial reporting and close process
• Own the AP/AR process
• Own all financial models
• Lead a team of one (and expand the team as the business grows)
• Be the financial backbone that supports our growth

This role is ideal for someone with a strong accounting or PE/higher-pressure finance background who wants to step into ownership and run finance for a scaling SaaS company. You don’t need to be a strategic CFO — you need to be operationally excellent, disciplined, and fast.

Requirements

• 7+ years of experience in senior accounting or controllership positons
• CPA, or a strong accounting foundation, is essential.
• Experience in Software, ideally SaaS or ecommerce finance
• You can own the monthly close process and financial models without hand-holding.
• Comfortable implementing tools and automation.
• High urgency, disciplined execution, and extreme attention to detail.
• Clear communicator who thrives in a culture of transparency and accountability.
• Hands-on operator first, strategic partner second — willing to dig in and do the work.
• Ambitious and ready to grow into broader leadership as the company scales.
• Due to an increase in AI applications, we require a brief cover letter from serious applicants with the right skill set. Please share why this opportunity is interesting, why it might be a great next career step, and the results you are proud of delivering in recent roles.
