Head of Finance

We're Ethena, an AI platform that’s revolutionizing the Compliance space. Our team of agents helps Compliance leaders run proactive Compliance programs that drive meaningful behavior change.

From Policies and Disclosures to Training, Hotline, and Analytics, our agents work together to drive smarter, faster, human-led decision-making. Hotline and training data rolls up into fully customizable, board-ready risk reports. Phishing clicks trigger bite‑sized, targeted follow‑up courses that drive behavior change without taking up a ton of training time. Our AI call taker synthesizes data to recommend improvements to company policies and training.

Every signal lands in one place, so Compliance leaders can spot risk early and fix it before it becomes a problem. The agents do the legwork, and people make every judgment call.

More than 2,000 organizations, from Pinterest and Zendesk to the Salvation Army, run their programs on Ethena. That covers millions of employees, from the warehouse floor to the trading desk. Our learning paths drop seat time by 60%, learners give our training a 93% approval rating, and 96% of customers renew.

Lots of companies call themselves AI-forward. We've actually built the tools to prove it. Come help us build what's next.

We're a team that values diversity in all its forms and loves adding new perspectives. We ask thoughtful questions, challenge assumptions, and build with empathy - for customers and each other. We're passionate about the work we do, love feedback, and lead with high agency and accountability. When we see something that could be better, we step up to the plate and do something about it.

We take our work seriously, but are careful not to take ourselves too seriously. Because doing great work should be fun.

Our workforce is fully remote, and your personal working hours can be based on your own timezone. All team-wide meetings are scheduled to be inclusive of all North American time zones.

Ethena is growing fast, and we need a finance leader who's excited to build what comes next. As our Head of Finance, you'll own the full finance function, from accounting and close to forecasting, planning, and board reporting. You'll report to our COO and work closely with them to give our leadership team the data and insight behind our biggest decisions.

You'll also give every department head a clear line of sight into their budget. We're looking for someone with a real point of view. You'll spot the risks and opportunities in the numbers before anyone asks and turn complex data into clear and actionable takeaways. You'll be hands‑on in the details one day and zoomed out on strategy the next.

Along the way, you'll build a high‑performing finance team that holds itself to a high bar.

• Partner with the COO to drive smart decisions. You'll keep leadership equipped with a clear, current view of financials, forecasts, and runway. You'll also pull together and synthesize the data behind our biggest calls. You'll flag risks and opportunities early, lay out the levers we can pull, and bring a recommendation on things like a smarter way to deploy spend or a cost that’s growing faster than its value.
  
  Then you'll turn it into takeaways the exec team can act on.

• Give every department head line of sight. You'll work with each leader so they always know where their budget stands, what's changed, and what tradeoffs they're facing.
• Own planning and forecasting. That covers the annual plan, quarterly…
