The Role
About Kasheesh
Kasheesh is the first platform to let you split any online purchase across multiple debit and credit cards—without needing a loan or a new line of credit. We help people access and manage their money in a way that fits how they live, earn, and spend today. We’re on a mission to give consumers more control and flexibility over how they fund everyday purchases. Whether it's combining your primary card with a fintech card or that gift card you forgot you had, Kasheesh makes it seamless to manage checkout your way. We’re a venture-backed team of fintech operators, builders, and designers reshaping what modern payments should look like.
Controller
As Controller, you’ll own the finance function at Kasheesh. This includes everything from month-end closes and expense reimbursements, to financial modeling and investor reporting. You’ll be our first finance hire, so you should be comfortable building processes and working independently. This role is ideal for someone with experience in fintech or payments and a desire to have a meaningful impact at an early-stage startup.
The Role
The Controller will be responsible for financial operations, compliance, and planning. You’ll own the books, build and manage processes, and interact with our partners on all things finance related. You’ll also be key in helping us understand our financial health and runway and support financial reporting for investor communications.
What You'll Do
- Prepare monthly financial statements
- Build and maintain the company’s budget and rolling forecasts
- Manage the general ledger, accounts payable/receivable, and expense reconciliation
- Work cross-functionally with department leads to manage their budgets
- Manage cash flow and runway reporting
- Maintain investor reporting packages and updates
- Support tax, compliance, and audit-related requirements (e.g. 1099s, state specific business tax filings)
- Own and improve financial tools, systems, and processes
- Help prepare for future fundraising rounds by ensuring clean financials and financial narratives
What We're Looking For
- 4–7+ years of finance and accounting experience, ideally in fintech, payments, or high-growth startups
- Understanding of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP)
- Experience working with or in early-stage, venture-backed companies
- Familiarity with tools and platforms like Stripe
- Comfort with BIN management, reconciliation, and card-related financial workflows
- Comfortable working independently and building systems from scratch
- Bonus: CPA or public accounting background
Compensation
The base salary range for this position is $100,000-$135,000. Base salary is just one component of our compensation structure. All full-time employees also receive an equity compensation package. In addition to your base salary and equity, you will be eligible to enroll in medical, dental, and vision insurance plans, including two fully covered options for individuals. We also offer a 401(k) match, a monthly wellness stipend, basic life insurance, unlimited vacation time and weekly team lunches in our NYC office.
Location
Our office is based New York City. Employees are expected to work from the office at least one day per week.
Interview Process
While the interview process may vary by role, the typical framework includes: an application, an HR interview, a peer interview, a hiring manager interview, a case study, and founder interviews.
We are a small team and every team member plays a meaningful role in shaping our mission and impact. We’re excited to meet candidates who are passionate about their work and ready to contribute to our mission. We look forward to hearing from you.
