Head of Finance

Who We Are
Tetra Digital Group is Canada's leading institutional digital asset infrastructure provider.

As Canada's first and only regulated digital asset custodian, we've built the institutional foundation the market demands. We're backed by Urbana Corporation, National Bank, ATB Financial, Wealthsimple, Purpose Unlimited, Shakepay, Shopify, and Coinbase Ventures - some of the most consequential names in Canadian finance and fintech.

We operate two interconnected businesses:
Tetra Trust, our regulated custody arm and CADD Digital, Canada's first Canadian dollar-backed stablecoin issued by a regulated financial institution. It's live on Base, Ethereum, and Tempo, with Solana next.

Here’s the problem we’re solving:
Canada clears roughly $424 billion every business day, and much of the retail payment infrastructure underneath it was designed in the 1980s. Batch windows. Cut-off times. Weekends off. We're building rails that settle continuously, programmatically, and under regulatory oversight.

We're a team of ~30 people. We punch well above our size, and so does the opportunity ahead.

The Role
You make sure the numbers behind Tetra hold up to anyone who checks them.

This is the senior finance seat at Tetra, and it's genuinely hands-on. You'll own accounting, FP&A, treasury, tax, audit, and regulatory reporting across all three businesses, and you'll be the CEO and board's partner on capital strategy, partnerships, M&A, and the next raise.

You'll work with a licensed trust company and a Canadian stablecoin company.

You'll be building the finance function for a business model that’s being defined in real time.

You'll report to our [CEO], work directly with senior leaders of the firm, the board and its audit committee, and partner closely with our compliance, legal, engineering, and partnerships leads.

What You'll Own

Capital, deals, and the next raise.  Own capital strategy across equity, debt, and strategic investment. Lead fundraising alongside the CEO, structure partnerships, M&A, and financing deals from first model to close, and manage the cap table and investor reporting for a shareholder base that includes some of Canada's biggest banks and fintechs. The data room is ready before anyone asks for it.

Board and executive partnership.  Be the key financial advisor to the CEO, executive team, and board on planning, controls, budgeting and audit committee materials.

Accounting and reporting under IFRS.  That includes consolidated reporting across Tetra's entities, crypto-asset accounting and fair value measurement, accounting for CADD in circulation and the reserves behind it, revenue recognition for custody and issuance fees, and intercompany agreements and transfer pricing.

Reserve economics.  Reserve income is a core part of how CADD makes money, and it moves with every rate decision. With operations, compliance, and risk, you'll shape the reserve investment policy: what we hold, where, at what duration, and with what liquidity buffer for weekend and holiday redemptions. You'll model reserve income across rate scenarios and make sure the business still works when rates fall.

Treasury and liquidity.  Account for corporate cash, runway, and liquidity across CAD, USD, and the digital assets among financial partners, counter parties, clients, issuers and holders.

Regulatory capital and filings.  Trust company capital and liquidity requirements, regulatory financial reporting and FINTRAC, and readiness for evolving regulations. You will own audit readiness and support SOC 1 and SOC 2 Type II work and reserve attestations.

Controls.  Design internal controls built for a regulated crypto business and a Canadian trust company, including, but not limited to, segregation of duties, maker-checker on payments…
