We're on a mission to empower builders.
Massive reach: Our docs platform serves 100 million+ developers every year and powers documentation for 20,000+ companies, including Anthropic, Microsoft, PayPal, Spotify, Coinbase, X, and over 20% of the last YC batch.
Small team, huge impact: We recently passed 65 employees and raised a $45 million Series B led by A16Z and Salesforce Ventures. Each new hire has a huge impact on shaping the company's trajectory.
Culture of slope over y-intercept: We value learning velocity, grit, and unapologetically unique personalities.
We grew in value faster than headcount and we’re looking to align the two quickly.
The RoleYou'll be Mintlify's first finance leader. You'll take full ownership of it: the operating model the whole company plans against, the forecast, board and investor reporting, budgets, pricing economics, and cash strategy, plus accountability for the accounting layer beneath it, which you'll run through our outsourced partner and eventually a team you hire.
This is a builder role. On day one you are the finance function. The business you're modeling is genuinely interesting: hybrid self-serve and sales-led revenue, usage-based and credit billing, multi-year enterprise contracts, and a subsidiary.
