VP of Finance

Voltage Park is on a mission to make machine learning infrastructure accessible to all, from large enterprises and research universities, to seed-stage startups and nonprofits. We believe that providing seamless access to compute with pricing and inventory transparency is the future of access to GPUs. 

As part of this effort, we’re looking for a VP of Finance, who will lead strategic finance projects, including financial planning and analysis, fundraising, internal business and project planning, strategic partnerships and accounting functions.  As an early hire, you’ll work closely with the executive team, and also have significant influence in defining our company culture and ensuring our success.

This is a fully remote role (with some travel required 1-2x a quarter), but the requirement is for candidates to be based where we index higher on team members (San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, Seattle). We are not able to provide sponsorship for this position.

• Lead strategic finance projects, including enhancing corporate financial model and pricing strategy

• Work closely with sales and marketing teams on GTM strategy including measuring CAC and developing sales & partnership commission structures

• Develop core finance processes, systems, and tools in support of financial and business planning, analysis, and scenario modeling activities

• Partner with the executive team on special projects across partnerships, corporate development, and go-to-market operations

• Manage a small team, guiding vision, day-to-day priorities, and career development plans and performance feedback

• Oversee our third-party accounting firm for month-end close responsibilities including accruals and account reconciliations, and completing annual tax filings

Qualifications

• 7+ years of experience in investment banking, private equity, management consulting, or high-growth startups (or equivalent analytical experience); experience or exposure to early-stage startups is ideal

• Experience managing, interviewing and hiring talent

• Proven financial and analytical capabilities, with deep experience building and maintaining financial and economic models that inform business decisions

• The ability to simplify complex ideas, and present them to multiple audiences

• Low ego: we’re a small group, and need somebody for whom no task is too small

• You’re resourceful with a “get sh*t done no matter what” attitude and you thrive in highly ambiguous environments

• Proven record of earning the trust and alignment across teams and stakeholders 

• An appetite for learning about data centers, equipment, and everything that goes into their set-up 

• Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field

• Strong understanding of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and compliance
