Full Job Description
The Role

You'll be Mintlify's first finance leader. You'll take full ownership of it: the operating model the whole company plans against, the forecast, board and investor reporting, budgets, pricing economics, and cash strategy, plus accountability for the accounting layer beneath it, which you'll run through our outsourced partner and eventually a team you hire.

This is a builder role. On day one you are the finance function. The business you're modeling is genuinely interesting: hybrid self-serve and sales-led revenue, usage-based and credit billing, multi-year enterprise contracts, and a subsidiary.
What You'll Do
  • Build and own the company operating model
  • Own board and investor reporting
  • Roll out functional budgets and run budget-vs-actual with every team lead
  • Partner with Sales and Operations on pricing, packaging, and deal economics
  • Own treasury, runway planning, and fundraise readiness
  • Monthly close, payroll, billing reconciliation, tax and compliance
  • Scope and hire the finance team
What We're Looking For
  • 8+ years of progressive finance experience, with leadership experience at a high-growth SaaS company ($10M-$100M ARR)
  • You've built and owned a driver-based operating model
  • You've produced board or investor materials that stood on their own
  • You understand usage-based billing and hybrid PLG + sales-led revenue mechanics deeply
  • You've stood up a finance function, or major parts of one, from scratch
  • You've been through at least one fundraise or major diligence process on the company side
  • You know what excellent controllership looks like and can hire and manage it
  • You're high-agency, fast, and low-ego
Nice to Have
  • Multi-entity/subsidiary accounting exposure
  • Experience selecting and implementing a modern finance stack
  • CPA or equivalent accounting depth
Compensation & Benefits
  • Salary range: $265,000-$305,000 + equity
  • 401(k) plan
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • Additional perks designed to support your health and wellbeing
Company Benefits:
  • Competitive compensation and equity
  • 20 days paid time off every year
  • 401k or RRSP
  • $420/month wellness stipend
  • 100% coverage for Health, dental, vision
  • Free Ubers to and from work
  • Free lunch and dinners
  • Annual team offsite (previously went to Alaska, Hawaii)
