## About the role

This is a rare opportunity for an accomplished public-company finance executive to build, rather than inherit, a platform of national significance. The Chief Financial Officer will be a true architect of the enterprise: designing the capital strategy that funds an acquisition pipeline, constructing the financial and compliance infrastructure of a defense-trusted manufacturer, and preparing the company for the public markets from day one.

## What they're looking for

- Public-company experience. Officer-level experience as CFO or as a direct report to the CFO of a publicly traded company, with ownership of SEC reporting, SOX compliance, earnings processes, and investor relations
- Capital markets execution. A track record of raising institutional capital and executing capital markets transactions such as an IPO or de-SPAC, follow-on equity offerings, private placements, and/or syndicated or structured debt
- M&A leadership. Hands-on leadership of acquisitions from valuation and diligence through structuring, financing, closing, and post-acquisition integration, ideally within a roll-up, platform, or buy-and-build strategy
- Public company transition. Experience taking a company public or serving as CFO during the first years operating as a public company
- Federal R&D programs. Exposure to DARPA, AFRL, DOE, NASA, or similar federal R&D contracting environments, including experience supporting SBIR/STTR-to-program-of-record transitions
- Systems integration. Experience integrating multiple acquired businesses onto a common ERP platform and financial control environment
