Head of Finance

Turba Labs•San Francisco, CA

1d•Hybrid

About The Position

We’re looking for a finance leader with real operational range: a genuine partner to our co-CEOs in running and scaling the company, not finance in isolation. You’ll own the model and the numbers, bring operational lift to how the business runs, and build a compact, high-leverage finance function that sets us up for the next stage.

Requirements

Senior finance leadership in a high-growth tech startup (CFO, VP Finance or Head of Finance), or a combined finance and operations background
Experience helping run a company, not only its finances, turning strategy into execution alongside a leadership team
Direct experience raising institutional venture funding, ideally leading the finance workstream on a Series B or later round
Strong modeling, forecasting and scenario-planning judgment, with the instinct to guide decisions rather than just report them
Cross-border experience managing finance and external accounting and tax partners, ideally across the US and Germany or Europe, including intercompany and transfer pricing
The ability to make complex numbers land with founders, boards and investors
A strategic, hands-on operator who thrives in a founder-led company with two co-CEOs
Based in the SF Bay Area or willing to relocate

Nice To Haves

Understanding of AI and infrastructure cost structures (compute economics, burn discipline), beyond SaaS FP&A
Experience building a finance function and vendor stack from an early baseline
CPA and/or MBA

Responsibilities

Financial planning & advisory: Own budgeting, forecasting, and scenario planning, and be the analytical partner to the co-CEOs on the decisions that shape the company including pricing, hiring, compute spend, and runway. Turn financial data into decisions the leadership team can act on.
Operational partnership to the leadership team: Bring operational leadership to how the company is run day to day. Help the leadership team turn strategy into execution.
Fundraising & investor relations: Partner with the co-CEOs to prepare for and run our Series B — build and defend the financial model, own the data room and diligence, and drive investor materials, reporting, and relationships. Be a trusted, straight-talking counterpart to the board.
International & cross-border (managed through partners): Own consolidation across our US and German entities including intercompany, transfer pricing, R&D cost allocation, multi-currency, and local compliance. We run accounting through external partners rather than in-house, so this means managing accounting, tax, and audit firms across both countries and coordinating how that work is priced and shared between entities.
Accounting, close & controls: Ensure a clean, timely close and right-sized internal controls.
A compact, world-class finance function: Build lean finance infrastructure and, over time, a small, high-leverage team that scales with the company.
