Build the Financial Engine of a Growing Fintech
We’re a fast-scaling fintech platform in the lending space, processing significant transaction volume and preparing for our next phase of institutional growth.
Right now, we operate with an outsourced bookkeeper and a fractional CFO. Now we’re ready for our first true in-house accounting leader, someone who can take ownership, build structure, and elevate our finance function from solid to scalable.
If you understand lending economics, loan management systems, and high-volume reconciliations — and you’re energized by building something the right way — this role is for you.
What You’ll Own
Transition accounting fully in-house from outsourced support
Lead monthly close and produce clean, GAAP-aligned financials
Reconcile transaction data across loan management software, banking feeds, and accounting systems
Build repeatable processes for unit-cost reconciliation and portfolio-level reporting
Support lender reporting, warehouse lines, and investor-facing documentation
Strengthen internal controls and prepare the company for audit readiness
Partner closely with our fractional CFO on long-term financial infrastructure
This is hands-on. You won’t just review numbers — you’ll understand how the business works underneath them.
What You Bring
progressive accounting experience
Background in banking, lending, fintech, mortgage, insurance, or similar transaction-heavy industries
Comfort working inside loan management or similar operational systems
Strong reconciliation skills — especially at scale
Advanced Excel proficiency
Experience building processes, not just maintaining them
CPA preferred but not required.
Why This Role Is Different
You’re not stepping into a bureaucratic machine — you’re helping shape one.
You’ll have meaningful ownership and visibility.
You’ll work directly with leadership and influence strategic growth.
Hybrid schedule with flexibility, but still real collaboration.
Clear runway to grow into a broader finance leadership role as we scale.
This is a career-defining role for someone who wants responsibility, impact, and a front-row seat to growth.
