Head of Finance

Yes, you'll own forecasting, planning, reporting, and the core finance function. But you'll also work directly with the founders on some of the company's most important decisions:

- How do we balance growth, reliability, and capital efficiency?

- How should we finance infrastructure growth through a combination of equity, cash flow, and debt?

- How do we think about pricing, margins, and long-term unit economics?

You'll help build the financial foundation for a company that sits at the intersection of software and large-scale infrastructure.

As Blacksmith scales, we expect infrastructure investment to become a major use of capital. We're looking for someone who can help us think through not only how much capacity to build, but how that growth should be financed.

- Support fundraising, investor relations, and strategic projects.

- Build the systems and processes that will scale with the company.

- Have 7+ years of experience in strategic finance, FP&A, investment banking, private equity, growth equity, or a high-growth technology company.
