## About the role

You will help own the financial operating system of the company. This includes building reliable processes around spend, close, reporting, billing, vendor management, and financial hygiene. You will partner closely with company leadership on planning, forecasting, budgeting, cash visibility, and board/investor reporting support.

## What they're looking for

- A strong operator who is detail-oriented enough to build reliable systems, but strategic enough to understand why those systems matter
- Someone with finance, accounting, consulting, business operations, investing, startup operations, or similarly analytical experience
- Comfort with spreadsheets, financial models, process design, and operating metrics
- Excellent judgment, ownership, and follow-through
- A low-ego team player who is willing to do the unglamorous work and improve it over time
- Someone who can operate with limited structure and turn ambiguity into clarity
