Jetson Home•North Vancouver, BC

About The Position

Jetson is on a mission to accelerate the transition of 100 million homes across North America away from fossil fuels toward sustainable energy use. We believe in a future that is 100% electric and 100% better. Homes are one of the largest sources of carbon emissions, yet adoption of solutions like heat pumps remains slow due to cost and complexity. Jetson is solving this by building the first fully vertically integrated home electrification company — making clean energy simple, transparent, and affordable. We rely heavily on technology, automation, and data to scale this impact. At Jetson, we value people who are excellent at their craft, curious about new tools (including AI), and motivated to continuously improve how work gets done. The Opportunity: Jetson is replacing furnaces and ACs with heat pumps across North America. It's a big market, a hard operational problem, and one of the highest-leverage ways to cut residential emissions. We're scaling quickly, and we need a VP of Finance who can build the accounting and financial operations backbone that lets us keep moving at this pace without breaking things. You'll report to the CFO and partner closely with them on everything from monthly reporting to fundraising diligence. You'll own controllership end to end across our US and Canadian entities, lead and grow the accounting team, and stand up the systems, controls, and processes that a company at our stage needs to operate well and, eventually, audit cleanly. This is a senior leadership role with real scope, not a controllership with a bigger title.
