Alinea Invest is building the next generation of investing and we’re one of the fastest growing Series A fintechs, backed by top-tier investors, with a product users genuinely love and trust.
We’re now looking for our first Head of Finance to join our small but ambitious team. We want someone who is numbers-obsessed, detail-oriented, and excited to build. This role will own Alinea’s finances end-to-end and partner closely with the founders as we scale responsibly and prepare for our next phase of growth.
If you enjoy being close to the business, shaping strategy, and building systems from scratch, this role is for you.
What You’ll Do
- Partner closely with the Co-CEOs and leadership team to own Alinea’s financial function end-to-end
- Lead company-wide budgeting, forecasting, and long-term financial planning, translating financial data into clear, actionable business insights
- Own the month-end close, financial statements, and performance reporting, ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and clarity
- Design, build, and scale financial systems and processes that support growth across product, marketing, and operations
- Own user acquisition and growth financing forecasts, partnering with marketing and growth teams to model CAC, payback, and capital efficiency
- Help Alinea scale profitably, with deep focus on unit economics, pricing strategy, and spend efficiency
- Proactively identify and execute cost-saving opportunities across the P&L, including vendor and SaaS negotiations
- Manage cash flow, runway planning, scenario modeling, and capital allocation decisions
- Oversee crypto float management, including forecasting, reconciliation, and risk considerations tied to on-platform balances
- Ensure tax, compliance, and regulatory oversight appropriate for a regulated fintech environment
- Support fundraising and investor relations, including diligence, board materials, and ongoing investor reporting
- Build and manage external finance partners (accounting, payroll, tax, audit) and, over time, grow the internal finance team
What We’re Looking For
- 4+ years of experience in finance, accounting, investment banking, or related roles
- Prior experience in a high-growth startup environment (Series A - C preferred)
- Strong foundation in financial operations, forecasting, and modeling
- Advanced Excel / Google Sheets skills (modeling, scenarios, pivots, formulas)
- Excellent attention to detail and comfort working with complex datasets
- Clear communication skills - you can translate numbers into insights for non-finance teammates
- A proactive, ownership-driven mindset: you spot issues early and fix them
- Comfort operating in ambiguity and building processes from scratch
- Experience managing or analyzing crypto-related balances, float, or treasury operations
- Familiarity with cohort-based financing, revenue-based financing, or other alternative capital structures
- Exposure to fintech, financial services, or regulated environments
Perks
- Be a leader at one of the fastest growing fintechs
- Work directly with the founders and leadership team
- High ownership and visibility across the business
- Great healthcare coverage (medical, dental, vision)
- 401(k) plan
