Summary Generated by Built In

We are looking for a VP of Finance / Head of Finance who will drive fiscal discipline across the company and help transform Microamp into a more business-driven, financially robust, and scalable organization. This is a highly strategic and hands-on leadership role at the center of the company. You will work directly with the CEO and leadership team to turn growth strategy into sustainable execution, build financial discipline, improve cross-functional predictability, and ensure the company capital structure can scale effectively across customers, manufacturing lines, R&D grants and international geographies.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in fast-moving, deep-tech environments and can combine strong corporate finance leadership with sharp commercial awareness, rigorous forecasting, and a fundraising mindset (Series A & B). You should be equally comfortable solving immediate cash-flow or working capital issues, building internal financial systems, driving accountability across department budgets, and helping leadership focus the organization on the highest business-impact priorities.

Key Responsibilities

Fundraising & Investor Relations (Series A & B)

  • Capital Raising Execution: Co-lead the upcoming Series A process alongside the CEO, taking full ownership of the financial framework and investor Data Room.

  • Due Diligence Ownership: Manage the financial, tax, and legal due diligence processes driven by incoming institutional funds.

  • VC Network Expansion: Proactively build and maintain strategic relationships with international Tier-1/Tier-2 Venture Capital funds for subsequent Series B financing.

Strategic FP&A & Corporate Finance

  • Financial Strategy & Modeling: Translate the company’s 5G roadmap into robust corporate financial models, short- and long-term forecasts, and scenario analyses.

  • Board & Executive Reporting: Synthesize monthly financial performance and KPI metrics into strategic, high-level recommendations for the Board of Directors and Advisors.

  • Commercial Support: Partner with Sales and Product teams to optimize international pricing models and the profitability of large-scale Enterprise contracts.

Hardware Economics & Working Capital

  • COGS & Margin Optimization: Deeply analyze the Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) structure to drive gross margin optimization and scale-up efficiency for series production.

  • Liquidity & Supply Chain Finance: Strategically manage cash flow cycles, inventory financing, and high upfront Capital Expenditures (CapEx) tied to global component procurement.

  • Alternative Funding: Evaluate and secure non-dilutive debt instruments (e.g., Venture Debt, working capital facilities) to fund hardware manufacturing.

 Non-Dilutive Funding & Global Governance

  • Grant Management & Compliance: Optimize the strategic utilization and rigorous financial reporting of large-scale national and EU R&D grants to complement equity funding.

  • Global Compliance & Taxes: Oversee international corporate structures, transfer pricing, and global tax/accounting compliance in collaboration with external partners.

  • Department Scaling: Assume full accountability for the finance function, with a clear strategy to build, mentor, and scale the internal team post-funding.

  • Extensive Professional Experience: Minimum 8–10+ years of progressive experience in corporate finance, including at least 5 years in an executive or high-level leadership capacity (e.g., CFO, Head of Finance, VP of Finance) within a capital-intensive technology sector (Hardware, Deep Tech, Telecoms, Aerospace or Advanced Manufacturing).

  • Proven Fundraising Track Record: A demonstrated history of successfully leading or co-leading venture capital-raising processes through Series A and Series B, or executing complex international M&A transactions on the company side. Active relationships with international Tier-1/Tier-2 VC funds are a significant advantage.

  • Hardware & Enterprise CAPEX Economics: Deep expertise in physical product scaling, manufacturing cost structures (COGS), and gross margin optimization. Proven understanding of long B&B/Enterprise sales cycles, deployment-heavy business models, and high upfront Capital Expenditure (CapEx) management.

  • Strategic Capital Structure Mastery: Exceptional grasp of balancing equity-based venture capital with sophisticated debt structures, working capital facilities, and substantial non-dilutive funding (large-scale national and EU R&D grants).

  • Executive Leadership & Team Building: Proven capability to operate at the Board level, partner effectively with Founders, and strategically build, mentor, and scale an internal finance department from the ground up as the company grows.

  • Analytical & Commercial Vision: Exceptional commercial acumen with a track record of translating complex financial data, forecasting, and macro-trends into actionable board-level corporate strategies that drive global expansion.

  • Education & Credentials: University degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field. Professional global certifications are highly preferred.

  • Flawless Language Skills: Full professional proficiency and executive presence in English (C1/C2 level), with absolute confidence in leading high-stakes negotiations and board presentations with international institutional investors.
