What You'll Do

Financial planning & forecasting: Own Attention's end-to-end budgeting, forecasting, cash management, and long-term financial planning: ensuring the company operates with clarity and discipline as it scales.

Financial infrastructure: Build scalable systems and processes to support a fast-growing SaaS business, including revenue recognition, subscription metrics, and operational reporting.

Reporting & visibility: Establish financial reporting frameworks, KPIs, and dashboards that give leadership and external stakeholders clear, timely visibility into revenue, burn, runway, and unit economics.

Who You Are
  • You have 4+ years of experience in investment banking, Big 4 advisory, or a high-rigor finance role at a fast-growing SaaS company. Or you've built equivalent skills through a non-linear path that's made you exceptionally sharp.
  • You're hands-on and resourceful, comfortable shifting between building a bottoms-up financial model and getting into the details of invoice collections and revenue recognition.
  • You're analytical and structured, able to blend quantitative rigor with clear, compelling communication for executives and investors alike.
  • You move fast, seek clarity, and thrive in ambiguous, high-growth environments where priorities evolve quickly.
  • You care about craft and impact, not just output. You take pride in doing great work, even on the details others would overlook.
  • You're curious and collaborative. You're energized by digging into the business, learning from teammates across functions, and turning financial insight into decisions that drive growth.
  • You're AI-native. You default to using AI tools to move faster and think sharper, and you're excited to work at a company building the category.
  • You're excited about building the finance foundation for a company that's changing how sales teams work.
