CFO

As Chief Financial Officer, you will be responsible for interface.ai’s end-to-end financial stewardship—defining strategy, driving execution, and earning trust with customers, investors, auditors, and regulators. 

You will build and lead a high-performing finance organization, embed operating discipline across quote-to-cash, accounting, and FP&A, and partner with Product, Engineering, Legal, and GTM to strengthen unit economics, support bank-grade vendor diligence, and accelerate compliant, durable growth.

This is a senior executive role, reporting directly to the CEO, with regular engagement with the board, financial institution CISOs, and regulators.

• Own the long-range plan, annual operating plan, and rolling forecasts; align spend with growth priorities and capital efficiency

• Partner with Security / Legal to maintain SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001, GLBA/FFIEC-aligned policies, incident-response economics, and vendor-security questionnaire readiness
• Oversee the budget and finance controls that support compliance posture without sacrificing velocity

• Implement a pragmatic internal-controls framework (approval matrices, vendor onboarding, revenue policies, access/SOD, change management).
• Stand up Audit/Finance Committee cadence and pre-SOX discipline to prepare for later-stage scale.
  

• Build and mentor a high-performing team across Accounting, FP&A, and Finance Ops; attract and develop talent ahead of need.
• Optionally steward People/HR ops in partnership with the People leader (comp/benefits/ESPP, headcount plan governance) as the company scales.
