Reducto helps AI teams ingest real world enterprise data with state of the art accuracy. The vast majority of enterprise data — from financial statements to health records — is locked in unstructured file formats like PDFs and spreadsheets. We train vision models to read those documents the way a human would, and make it possible to build products, train models, and automate processes at scale. We’ve grown quickly, raising over 100M from investors like A16z, Benchmark, and First Round Capital, and are looking for a Head of Finance to build our finance function and support our next phase of growth.
The Role
We're looking for our first Head of Finance to establish and scale our financial operations through a period of rapid growth. You'll work directly with the founders to build a world‑class finance function, establish scalable processes and systems, and provide the financial insights needed to make strategic decisions as we scale from mid 7 figures to 8 figures and beyond.
What You'll Do
- Own all financial operations including accounting, FP&A, and strategic planning
- Build and lead financial planning processes including budgeting, forecasting, and board reporting
- Establish robust financial controls, systems, and processes that scale with the business
- Partner with leadership on strategic decisions including pricing, unit economics, and resource allocation
- Manage relationships with investors, auditors, banks, and other financial stakeholders
- Build and scale the finance team as we grow
- Provide data‑driven insights that drive business decisions across the organization
- Lead fundraising efforts and M&A activities when appropriate
What We're Looking For
- You joined an earlier‑stage startup (Series A‑C) and built the finance function through hypergrowth to 100‑200+ people
- You saw things break at scale and learned how to fix them—you can look around corners
- You can contribute beyond just finance (e.g., strategic insights, operational improvements, business development)
- Bonus: Experience with SaaS metrics, API‑based businesses, or consumption pricing models
Benefits at Reducto
- Unlimited PTO: We believe great work requires recharging.
- Lunch: Receive a free lunch to eat with your teammates daily at the office
- Reimbursed Transportation: Provide us with your receipts and we’ll take care of the costs
- Insurance: Generous health insurance covering medical, dental, and vision
- Health and Wellness Budget: Up to $150/mo reimbursement for health and wellness spending
- Parental Leave: Work with us to build a leave schedule that works for you and your family
Location: San Francisco, CA. Salary: $168,000.00 – $250,000.00.
