Reporting directly to the Head of Finance, you'll get a front-row seat to how a fast-growing AI startup runs, with direct mentorship and a lot of room to grow. You'll have real ownership over core parts of our finance operations from day one, and your scope will expand as you and the company grow.

Compliance: Support sales tax, compliance, SRED process and other recurring finance requirements. Planning & Forecasting: Support the annual operating plan, forecasting, and cash-flow/runway reporting.

Technical Foundation: Hands-on experience with month-end close, financial analysis and reconciliations Comfortable with budgeting, forecasting and variance analysis Startup Grit: Comfortable operating in a fast-moving environment where processes may still need to be built. You take an outcome and drive it through rather than waiting for instructions. Communication: You can work directly with non-finance stakeholders and explain the “why” behind the numbers. Nice-to-Have Systems Orientation: Genuine interest in improving processes through technology, automation and AI, and experimenting with new tools to translate them into practical workflow improvements. Prior experience at a SaaS or technology company with an understanding of SaaS metrics Public Accounting Background: Experience at a Big 4 or public accounting firm.
