Overview The Chief Financial Officer will functionally act as both CFO and VP of Finance, evolving over time to build the team and structure that will eventually let you operate at full CFO altitude. We are seeking a strategic, technically gifted CFO who thrives on building — systems, teams, processes, and results. This role blends the strategic leadership of a CFO with the hands-on execution of a VP of Finance and Accounting, reflecting the current stage of our company and the scale of what’s next. If you’re ready to step out of the Fortune 500 shadows, this role offers a rare opportunity to scale a business as key member of a tight-knit, high-horsepower team with a rock solid foundation. We need a hands-on financial leader who can bridge the gap between big-company sophistication and small-company grit — someone who sees building foundational finance functions not as “beneath them,” but as the most direct path to optimize integrations and have long-term strategic impact.
