The Company
Tutor Intelligence is building the technology and processes to let robots go where they’ve never gone before: the average American factory and warehouse. We understand that general-purpose and generally intelligent robots are going to be built in our lifetimes, and we’re not content to sit on the sidelines.
 
Founded by MIT alumni and backed with over $40M in funding by leading investors in AI and robotics, Tutor combines human and artificial intelligence to build something greater than the sum of its parts — a Tutor Intelligence. As an AI software company that deploys its inventions directly into the facilities that need them, every line of code, process change, and decision at Tutor has a direct impact on the physical economy.
 
We’re seeking an ambitious finance and internal operations leader who wants to shape the foundation of a startup building the future of manual work.
 
The Role
As Head of Finance, you will own financial planning, reporting, and operations functions that are critical to scaling the business. You will partner closely with the CEO, leadership team, and investors to build forecasting, budgeting, metrics, and internal operations that give the company clarity and confidence as we grow.

What You’ll Do

  • Lead annual and rolling forecasts, long-range planning, and scenario modeling.
  • Build, own, and present key financial dashboards for leadership and board decks.
  • Drive fundraising preparation: model build, diligence documentation, metrics, and investor Q&A support.
  • Oversee budgeting and monthly financial reviews with business partners.
  • Ensure cash runway planning and multi-scenario analysis.
  • Manage or partner with external accounting/bookkeeping resources to ensure clean month-end close, GAAP compliance, and audit readiness.
  • Implement scalable finance systems and controls as headcount, bookings, and revenue grow.
  • Guide pricing and unit economic analysis to support commercial strategy.
  • Work cross-functionally with People Ops on compensation planning, equity, and forecasting.
  • Help build and improve internal operations — procurement, vendor management, office/facilities coordination, and other operational infrastructure — as the company scales.
  • Identify and implement tools, workflows, and policies that keep the company running smoothly behind the scenes.

Who You Are

  • 7+ years of finance experience, including fast-paced startup environments.
  • Deep comfort building financial models and investor-ready presentations.
  • Hands-on experience with budgeting, forecasting, and analytics.
  • Experience partnering with outsourced accounting or leading a month-end close process.
  • Energized by wearing multiple hats — you see finance and internal operations as naturally connected, not separate silos.
  • Excellent communication style with leaders and external stakeholders.
  • Comfortable with ambiguity and building process where none exists yet.

Nice to Haves

  • Prior Series B or later stage fundraising experience.
  • Experience working with auditors and GAAP reporting.
  • Exposure to enterprise software / SaaS / RaaS economics.
  • Familiarity with tools like Rillet, Carta, Ramp, or analytics platforms.
  • Experience with equipment financing and other forms of non-dilutive financing.
  • Experience standing up internal operations functions (e.g., procurement, vendor management, office ops) at an early-stage company.
  •  
     

Compensation & Benefits

  • Competitive salary and meaningful equity
  • Fully employer-covered health and dental insurance
  • 401(k)
  • Unlimited PTO
  • Regular in-office meals and team events
  • A collaborative, low-ego environment where people are trusted to do their best work

Culture
We believe something special happens when talented, motivated people work together with respect and low ego. At Tutor, every team member is empowered to have real impact and is trusted to take ownership of meaningful problems. We value technical excellence, intellectual honesty, collaboration, and thoughtful urgency.
