Partner with Product and Engineering to operationalize our internal AI vision and ensure we move from idea to shipped solution at high velocity
Oversee Finance including capital planning, headcount modeling, budgeting, forecasting, and investor reporting
Build world class CX and onboarding operations that reflect the strength of our partnerships and product
Continuously identify inefficiencies and build smarter workflows, automations, and AI driven processes across the organization
What we’re looking for 🎯
8+ years of experience in high performance environments such as MBB consulting, investment banking, or senior leadership in a ultra fast scaling tech company
Proven track record of building and scaling operational systems from scratch in complex environments
Strong financial and analytical fluency with deep understanding of SaaS metrics, P&L ownership, and capital planning
Genuine excitement about AI and its potential to transform wealth and asset management at scale
A builder mindset with a bias for action, comfortable rolling up your own sleeves and creating solutions when none exist
Experience driving cross functional alignment and holding senior stakeholders accountable to ambitious goals
Exceptional written and verbal communication skills with structured thinking and high attention to detail
Experience within banking, asset management, or wealth management is a strong advantage

A comprehensive compensation package that includes a competitive salary and a generous equity and bonus plan, offering life-changing potential for the right candidate.
Flat organizational structure to allow optimal focus on what matters most.
A supportive and collaborative team culture that values independence, growth, innovation, and success.
