VP of Finance​/CFO track

This role is a direct path to becoming CFO of one of the fastest-growing fintech companies in the market.

You will operate at the intersection of strategy, treasury, payments operations, and accounting — working cross-functionally across product, compliance, banking partners, and leadership. This is not a back-office finance role; it is a core operating position with visibility into every critical lever of the business.

You’ll help design and scale our financial architecture, manage capital efficiency, oversee payment flows, and build the systems that support global expansion. The right candidate is analytical, operationally rigorous, and excited to build in a high-growth, high-ownership environment.
