Hadrius automates and consolidates securities compliance for investment firms. To do this, we’re building the automated back office for financial firms, using AI to analyze millions of data points from emails to text messages, marketing copy, investment accounts, filings, and more to identify regulatory violations.

Today, over 300+ financial institutions managing $4T+ AUM rely on Hadrius to automate their regulatory compliance. We’re the fastest growing company in the space and the emerging category leader, going from our launch out of the YC W23 batch to $XMs+ ARR in under 24 months and haven’t slowed down since. We have a world-class team and product competing against legacy software that hasn't innovated in decades, and are looking for exceptional people dedicated to our shared mission to join.

This is a full-time role as Head of Finance, located onsite in New York, NY.

We’re looking for an operationally excellent, strategically minded finance leader to own Hadrius’s financial systems, planning, and decision-making. You’ll be the connective tissue between data and strategy, turning numbers into insights, insights into action, and action into compounding growth.

You’ll partner directly with the CEO and leadership team to shape company strategy, manage capital, and build a world-class finance function that can scale with Hadrius through our next stage of growth. This is a hands-on role: you’ll be equally comfortable modeling scenarios in Excel, leading board discussions, and architecting scalable financial infrastructure.

You will work directly with the founding team to design and build the future of the financial system. We pride ourselves on having a culture that rewards impact and success generously. We’re focused first and foremost on empowering each other to do our best work, today and into the future. You'll be on a team that works incredibly hard and seeks other exceptional people excited to do the same.
