Head of Finance

Nudge

About Nudge At Nudge, our mission is to develop the best technology for interfacing with the brain to improve people’s lives. We’re starting with an approach that we believe can help the most people the fastest, and also allow us to learn as much about the brain as possible: developing a non-invasive, ultrasound-based device that can stimulate and image the brain at high resolution and depth. This is a vertically integrated effort building cutting-edge hardware, software, and research capabilities to create products that can benefit millions — and eventually billions — of people. We’ve brought together a team of the best, who believe hard things are worth doing. To succeed, we need to assemble world‑class teams across everything we do. We hire people who are exceptional at their craft, do the real work, and execute relentlessly — people who expect the highest levels of both rigor and integrity from each other. About the role As the head of finance at Nudge, you will: Own all financial operations end-to-end: accounting, FP&A, tax, treasury, and procurement. Build scalable systems, tools, and controls to support rapid growth. Ensure financial accuracy, transparency, and efficiency across the company. Partner with leadership on planning, runway, and capital allocation. About you 10+ years of experience leading finance at an early-stage or high-growth tech/R&D company. Hands‑on experience across accounting, FP&A, and operational finance. Comfortable switching between strategic planning and hands‑on execution. Built and scaled financial systems and processes from the ground up. Excellent analytical, organizational, and communication skills. #J-18808-Ljbffr Nudge
