About The Position

Warp is seeking a Head of Finance to build and manage the financial operations of a rapidly growing company targeting over $50M in revenue. This role involves partnering closely with the CEO on strategic financial matters, including operating models, board and investor reporting, unit economics, and capital allocation for an $85M-funded, money-moving business. The position requires a hands-on approach initially, with the expectation to build and lead a finance team over time.

Requirements

• 5+ years of experience in finance, including ownership of FP&A and board reporting at a high-growth startup.
• Deep FP&A and strategic finance expertise, with the ability to build a financial model from scratch and defend its assumptions.
• Fluency in SaaS metrics, and ideally fintech or payments economics (float, money movement, multi-product ARPU).
• Proven experience partnering directly with a founder or CEO on decision-making and company building.
• Ability to be hands-on initially and transition into a team-builder role; willingness to take on any task at this stage.

Nice To Haves

• Experience in the payroll, payments, insurance space, or another regulated money-moving business.
• Experience assisting in the management of a priced fundraise.

Responsibilities

• Own the financial model and forecast, translating revenue trajectory into a company-wide plan and a board-trusted model.
• Manage board and investor reporting, including monthly metrics, quarterly board materials, and the associated financial narrative.
• Oversee unit economics and pricing analysis, focusing on metrics like ARPU, gross margin, payback, and the economics of new offerings such as benefits brokerage and in-house payroll.
• Collaborate on capital allocation decisions, including Series B funding deployment, burn rate management, runway, and return on investment for significant initiatives like replacing the money-movement vendor.
• Build the finance function by hiring and leading the controller and operations team, and managing relationships with wealth, banking, accounting partners, and auditors.
• Prepare for and execute the next fundraise.

Benefits

• 100% Health Coverage: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision plans for you and your dependents.
• 401(k) Matching: Start investing in your future from day one.
• Unlimited PTO: Flexible PTO policy, trusting employees to take needed time off.
