Strategic Finance Lead

Frontera is reimagining how children with autism and other behavioral health needs get the care they deserve. We bring together world‑class clinicians, technologists, and autism specialists to build cutting‑edge AI tools that help care teams work smarter and spend more time with the children and families who need them most.

Our platform is HIPAA‑compliant and designed for the real‑world needs of behavioral health teams— from psychologists to ABA therapists. By combining evidence‑based care with powerful technology, we’re expanding access to high‑quality services for families everywhere.

Frontera exists to close the care gap: every child, no matter where they live, should be able to access effective behavioral healthcare.

We are seeking a high‑ownership Strategic Finance Lead to help build the financial backbone of Frontera as we scale across healthcare services, technology, and emerging health‑system business models.

You will partner closely with Finance, Operations, Product, Commercial, and Clinical leadership to improve forecasting, revenue and margin visibility, unit economics, and operating decision‑making across Frontera’s hybrid services + technology model.

This is a high‑leverage finance role for someone who can operate close to the business, build scalable finance infrastructure, and help leadership understand what is driving performance across a complex healthcare + AI operating model.
