Job Description
CFO
vCluster
• Financial Strategy & Leadership: Build and lead vCluster Labs' finance and accounting function, owning the company's financial operating system end to end. You will set the financial strategy that underpins our path to sustainable, capital-efficient growth. • Hands-On FP&A and Modeling: Own FP&A directly, not through a team. You will build and maintain the forecasts, financial models, and planning process yourself, ensuring clear success criteria and rigorous, defensible numbers. • Accounting & Compliance Oversight: Own the accuracy of our financial reporting, guiding the company through audits, tax compliance, and month-end close. You may bring on one additional hire to support the accounting function, but the financial narrative and controls stay under your direct ownership. • Fundraising & Investor Relations: Serve as the CEO's key partner during fundraising, leading diligence prep and the financial narrative that gets deals done. You will build the relationships and materials that carry us through future rounds. • Executive & Board Partnership: Act as the primary financial escalation point for the executive team and engage directly with the Board of Directors, translating financial constraints into a plan the business can execute against. • Cross-Functional Influence: Serve as the financial voice inside Product and Sales conversations, using unit economics and efficiency metrics to shape the roadmap and go to market decisions.
Job Requirements
- Deep Financial Expertise: You have strong technical depth in corporate finance, accounting (GAAP), and SaaS metrics (ARR, NRR, CAC), and you can hold your own in a complex financial conversation with anyone in the building.
- Executive-Level Leadership: You have operated at CFO or VP Finance level in a high-growth startup or SaaS company, and you know how to build a finance function's culture of transparency and fiscal responsibility from the top.
- Fundraising Track Record: You have led or been deeply embedded in fundraising rounds, with a track record of managing diligence and building investor relationships that hold up under pressure.
- A True Operator Mindset: You are senior enough to set strategy and still willing to build the model yourself. FP&A ownership does not get delegated on your watch, even as you grow the broader team.
- Communication Skills: You can translate complex financial concepts for engineers, VCs, and the C-suite alike, adjusting the altitude of the conversation to the audience.
- Bonus points for: CPA or CFA Designation, International Subsidiary Experience, Financial Systems Implementation, Distributed Team Experience.
Benefits
- Competitive Salary: We offer a competitive compensation package, including equity.
- Platinum-Level Insurance: Health, dental, vision, and life Insurance, including plans for you and eligible dependents (benefits vary depending on country).
- Flexible Working Schedule: You have a doctor’s appointment or need to head to the supermarket to get groceries at 2pm? We won’t have an issue with that. To us, results matter more than clocking in and out at the same time every day.
- Workplace Flexibility: We’re very flexible about where you work. We know things can change in life and we’re happy to adjust the work environment for you along the way.
