- Technology: Own the internal finance stack (ERP, billing, spend management, cap table management)
- Accounting: Ensure books are closed accurately and on time, working with an outsourced accounting team to start
- Reporting and Investor Relations: Build board and investor materials and support fundraising and diligence What we're looking for
