VP, Finance & Accounting

The role

What you'll own

• Annual planning, forecasting, and board reporting
• Business partnering with go-to-market, product, and engineering leaders. Specifically on pricing and margin strategies for new and existing products.
• M&A readiness, deal modeling, and diligence support
• Capital strategy and treasury
• Fundraising support and investor relations

• Month-end close, financial reporting, and GAAP compliance
• Annual audit, tax filings, and 409A process
• Internal controls and audit readiness
• Direct oversight of accounting operations

• Manage and develop the FP&A Manager and Accounting Manager
• Assess and build the finance team as Narmi scales
• Set the bar for how finance partners with the rest of the company

What you bring

• 10+ years of finance experience, with direct ownership of both FP&A and accounting/controllership functions
• Prior startup experience in a high-growth and lean environment 
• Track record of scaling finance and accounting organizations through a meaningful growth phase
• GAAP fluency and direct experience running an annual audit
• Strong analytical and financial modeling skills
• Comfort in a fast-paced, founder-led environment
• History of being a strong partner to go-to-market and product leaders
• AI-native operating style. You use AI as a daily force multiplier. You've automated workflows, built your own tools or agents, and used research tools to compress what used to take weeks into hours. You've kept up as the tools have changed and have opinions about which ones are worth the hype. You don't need a tutorial on prompt engineering. You won't need to be taught AI at Narmi. You'll be teaching us.

• Alignment to Mission: You believe that helping community financial institutions win against Mega Banks and FinTechs is a worthy endeavor, and will use that belief as a northstar to anchor your efforts to that goal.
• High Commitment: You follow through, roll up your sleeves, and keep the bar high for yourself and others.
