We're recruiting a Head of Finance & Operations role at a seed-stage AI startup in NYC that's building the AI brain for the $120B hotel and short-term rental industry. In under two years they've shipped a product loved by hundreds of paying customers, are growing 20% month-over-month, and have raised over $6M from the heads of the Stanford and Berkeley AI labs plus investors behind Discord, Hugging Face, and Replicate. They're now scaling from $2M toward tens of millions in revenue. You'd be their first dedicated finance leader, reporting directly to the CEO. What you'd own:
