Chief Financial Officer (CFO) - REMOTE

The Chief Financial Officer is accountable for financial strategy, planning, budgeting, cash management, accounting integrity, controls, reporting, tax coordination, risk management, capital readiness, and transaction support. The CFO gives the CEO and the executive team a dependable financial view of the company and translates strategic choices into clear economic consequences. The CFO serves as the company's principal financial advisor and strategic business partner to the CEO. While the CEO establishes enterprise strategy, capital priorities, and final transaction decisions, the CFO provides financial analysis, governance, risk assessment, recommendations, and disciplined financial execution that enable informed executive decision-making. The CFO partners across the Executive Leadership Team to ensure financial integrity, capital readiness, and sustainable enterprise growth. This is an equity-only, fractional executive leadership opportunity for a visionary leader who is energized by building, scaling, and shaping a high-growth technology company. The ideal candidate thrives in entrepreneurial environments, embraces ambiguity, and is motivated by creating long-term enterprise value while partnering with a collaborative executive team.
