Barupon LLC

Chief Financial Officer (CFO)

Barupon is seeking a strategic, capital markets–driven Chief Financial Officer (CFO) to lead the company through its IPO and transition into a publicly traded organization. The ideal candidate has successfully taken one or more companies public, built billion-dollar enterprise value, and possesses deep expertise in public market finance, regulatory compliance, investor relations, and large-scale financial strategy.

This executive will partner closely with the CEO and board to prepare Barupon for IPO readiness, execute the public listing process, and scale the financial infrastructure required for a high-growth public company.

Core Qualifications
  • Direct experience leading or co-leading an Initial Public Offering (IPO) from preparation to listing.

  • Proven record of taking companies public and navigating SEC regulatory processes.

  • Strong experience with S-1 filings, SEC reporting, and public company compliance (SOX, GAAP/IFRS).

  • Ability to build and lead IPO readiness programs, including governance, financial reporting systems, and internal controls.

Executive CFO Leadership
  • 10–20+ years of progressive finance leadership, including significant experience as a CFO or senior finance executive.

  • Demonstrated success managing enterprise-scale finance operations in high-growth companies.

  • Proven ability to build and lead high-performing finance teams including FP&A, accounting, tax, treasury, and investor relations.

Billion-Dollar Value Creation
  • Track record of helping build companies valued at $1B+.

  • Experience scaling financial infrastructure during hyper-growth phases.

  • Demonstrated impact on valuation growth, capital efficiency, and financial strategy.

Capital Markets & Fundraising
  • Extensive experience in capital raising, public market financing, and institutional investor relations.

  • Deep relationships with investment banks, institutional investors, analysts, and venture/private equity firms.

  • Expertise in equity offerings, debt financing, structured capital, and strategic transactions.

Strategic Financial Leadership
  • Ability to translate financial insights into company-wide strategic decisions.

  • Strong experience supporting M&A, strategic partnerships, and expansion initiatives.

  • Expert in financial modeling, valuation strategy, and capital allocation.

Preferred Background
  • Experience in high-growth healthcare, pharmaceutical, fintech, or tech-driven companies.

  • Prior role as CFO during IPO or post-IPO scaling phase.

  • MBA, CPA, CFA, or equivalent advanced financial credentials preferred.

  • Experience managing public company boards and audit committees.

Critical Candidate Questions (to include in cover letter)
  1. What company or companies have you helped take public, and what was your role in the IPO process?

  2. What was the valuation of the company at IPO and how did you contribute to increasing enterprise value?
