About Treeswift

In the face of rising threats, increasing pressure on affordability, and unprecedented demand for power, Treeswift empowers energy companies to modernize their field work to meet the growth and challenges ahead.

We build physical AI for the field worker: whether on foot or in a vehicle, our technology is an ironman suit for engineers, linemen, and vegetation crews: same worker, same boots on the ground, now operating at 10x productivity. Our platform is powered by cutting edge hardware, sensors (LiDAR, camera, etc…), AI and software designed to revolutionize work in the toughest environments.

Since our first pilot with a utility in June 2024, we've grown fast, now working with three of the five largest utilities in the US. To date, our technology has enabled our customers to reduce wildfire risk, regulatory and outage risk from vegetation, avoid delays and cost overruns in new construction, and accelerate recovery from severe storms.

To tackle this challenge, we are bringing together a team of mission-driven experts with deep industry experience in robotics (Penn, Caltech, CMU) and enterprise software development (Palantir, Stripe, Oracle, MongoDB). We have raised funding from leading investors including Penny Pritzker’s Inspired Capital.

We are headquartered in midtown Manhattan, with additional offices in San Francisco and Philadelphia.

Our growth is only accelerating. We’re looking for deeply curious and highly ambitious people who want to have a real world impact. Come build the future of (field) work with us.

Treeswift is hiring its first Head of Finance at a pivotal stage of company growth. We've proven our product with some of the largest utilities in the country, and we're now building the financial strategy, infrastructure, and operating rigor required to scale an enterprise technology company for the long term.

This role goes far beyond traditional FP&A or reporting. We're looking for a strategic finance leader who can help shape how the business scales, from pricing strategy and capital planning to long-range forecasting, investor readiness, and operational decision-making. This is a role for someone who thinks from first principles and is comfortable operating in a fast-growing, still-evolving environment, bringing sound judgment to decisions even when the data is incomplete and building a financial model the team can rely on as the business scales.

The ideal candidate has helped scale a venture-backed enterprise or hardware technology company through multiple stages of growth, ideally from Series A or B through later-stage scale, and understands how finance evolves as a company matures. This person brings strong judgment, executive presence, and the ability to influence decisions in environments where there is no existing playbook. You'll report directly to the Co-Founder & CEO and serve as a key thought partner across the business as we navigate the intersection of enterprise infrastructure, hardware, and AI.
