Overview

The organization is seeking a Director of Finance to help shape the next stage of growth. This role works closely with the VP of Finance, the executive team, and leaders across the business to translate strategy into financial plans, guide key investment decisions, and provide clear visibility into business performance.

This position sits at the intersection of finance, strategy, and execution. As the organization scales, the Director of Finance will build the capabilities, processes, and operating cadence needed to understand the drivers of the business and apply analytical rigor to decisions across growth, product investment, organizational capacity, and capital allocation.

Responsibilities

Build investment cases for major strategic bets, new segments, market entry, GTM and product investments, and lead post-investment reviews to assess expected versus realized returns.
Own the framework for allocating spend and headcount across GTM, R&D, and G&A, including mechanisms and decision criteria for reallocating resources as priorities change.
Lead annual planning, quarterly forecasting, and rolling outlook processes, establishing clear inputs, owners, timelines, and accountability for forecast accuracy.
Make unit economics understandable to non-finance leaders, including gross margin and model/inference costs, cost-to-serve, CAC payback, customer profitability, and NRR/GRR.
Partner with GTM and Product on pricing and packaging as the model evolves, including usage-based components; model alternatives, stress-test downside scenarios, and establish economic guardrails for commercial decisions.
Work with the finance team on the systems roadmap (CRM, billing, ERP, expense, and reporting). Set priorities, define requirements, and drive implementation with RevOps, Data, and external partners, with clear ownership for data integrity and reporting accuracy.
Partner with the VP of Finance and executive team on board and investor materials, translating performance, forecast changes, and strategic decisions into a clear financial narrative.
Build the capabilities, processes, and operating cadence for a high-performing strategic finance function, including developing the team and establishing clear ownership across planning, forecasting, analytics, and business partnering.
