Collaborate closely with our internal legal team on entity structuring, contract matters, compliance, and corporate governance

Stand up the accounting infrastructure required for new entities, new markets, and international operations as they come online

Support capital raising, investor reporting, and board‑level communication with accurate, audit‑ready financials as needed

Partner with the Finance organization on planning and analysis while retaining clear executive ownership of accounting

Provide a consistent, hands‑on, on‑site executive presence, leading the team in person
