Finance & Operations Controller

Amplio is building the operating system for the industrial circular economy. Manufacturing runs on machines and parts, and far too many of them get scrapped while they still have years of life left. Meanwhile, other manufacturers are stuck hunting for the exact surplus, used, or hard-to-find equipment that’s sitting idle in someone else’s warehouse. We connect those two sides. Our AI-powered platform gives equipment a second life, keeps production lines running, and helps manufacturers stay competitive, all while keeping usable hardware out of landfills. We’re repeat founders, backed by leading VC firms, and we recently closed our Series A. We’ve found product‑market fit: clients are actively using Amplio to move real equipment and real revenue. We are a small and rapidly growing company. You have an opportunity to come in early, make material decisions, and grow with the company. A little bit about the role… This finance-heavy role sits at the center of Amplio’s financial operations, owning accounts receivable, accounts payable, audits and reconciliations, and financial reporting. You’ll be the business subject matter expert on our financial processes, serving as the main voice helping our Product team build efficiencies into invoicing and financial workflows, and the go‑to point of contact for financial questions, both internally across teams and externally with sellers, disposition partners, and other providers.
