By bringing modern collaboration, workflow automation, and AI-driven intelligence into electronic design, the company is transforming a massive but historically underserved industry—one that underpins the future of AI itself. With enterprise and Fortune 50 customers already adopting their platform across aerospace, medical devices, and consumer electronics, the business is entering its next stage of growth. Having recently completed a successful Series A and preparing for a Series B in the next 18–24 months, they are well-positioned to become the cloud-native category leader in this market. The Opportunity This is the company’s first dedicated finance leadership hire, a role designed for a strategic operator who can serve as a true thought partner to the CEO and leadership team. It blends strategic influence with hands-on execution—ideal for someone who wants to own and build the finance function while helping guide the company through rapid growth. Key Responsibilities Lead investor relations, fundraising readiness, and board communications. Build forward-looking financial models, forecasts, and scenario planning to inform strategy. Partner with Sales, Product, and Engineering leaders on pricing, budgeting, and ROI analysis. Implement scalable systems, dashboards, and processes to professionalize reporting and KPIs. Oversee an external bookkeeper and manage accounting operations including AR/AP, collections, reconciliations, and compliance. Why This Role? Female-founded, Harvard-trained leadership team operating at the intersection of hardware and AI. A pivotal inflection point: early enough for meaningful ownership and impact, late enough to scale with proven customer traction. Trusted by enterprise and Fortune 50 customers, with multi-year expansion opportunities. Backed by leading investors, with momentum toward a Series B and beyond. A rare, high-impact opportunity to define the finance function and play a central role in shaping the company’s growth trajectory. We are an equal opportunity employer and are committed to building a diverse, inclusive, and supportive workplace. We encourage applications from candidates of all backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives.
