SquadRun Inc - Lead - Finance - CA (1-3 yrs)

Noida Job Code: 733696

Finance Manager at Squadrun Inc

About Squad:

Squad combines crowdsourcing and AI in one platform to help solve large-scale operational processes. Humans are great at solving complex tasks but perform poorly at repetitive tasks whereas ML works great with bounded repetitive problems & fails with open problems. We see ML & a distributed workforce as two key phenomena that would drastically change how work gets done in the future.

As Finance Manager, your sound planning, process freakiness, and systematic execution will help us grow efficiently. You will be the core driver of our processes: make sure our accounts (in US and India entities) are watertight, our finances zero-defect, our business process crystal clear, and everything end-to-end compliant and monitored. You make sure that no auditor or lawyer can challenge our processes.

This role blends accounting/bookkeeping, FP&A, strategy, and operations. You will manage the major components of the financial operations of the business. You will work on the monthly close, customer collections, forecasting, investor reporting, internal metrics collection, and lead financial analysis to inform critical business decisions. You will also play a hands-on role in tackling operational challenges around the business, ranging from negotiations with major vendors to sales operations to drafting legally binding contracts and agreements.
