The posting

ABOUT POSEIDON AEROSPACE:

Poseidon Aerospace is reimagining how the world moves goods. We build and operate full-size autonomous cargo aircraft - capable of carrying two tons of payload over a thousand nautical miles. From remote communities to contested logistics operations, our platforms unlock a new cost curve for air freight, making it faster, cheaper, and accessible anywhere it's needed. Headquartered in the San Francisco Bay Area with locations in Washington DC, Oregon, and Maine; we're building something consequential.

ABOUT THE ROLE

Poseidon is looking for a Head of Finance to own our finance function and help shape how we fund and scale the company. You will lead accounting, FP&A, treasury, tax, and financial operations while partnering with leadership on planning, capital allocation, and financing strategy. This is a hands-on role for someone comfortable moving between long-term decisions and day-to-day execution.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

- Own accounting, budgeting, forecasting, reporting, tax, treasury, procurement, and cash management.

- Provide leadership with a clear view of performance, liquidity, runway, and future capital needs.

- Develop Poseidon’s capital strategy across equity, loans, credit facilities, equipment financing, and leases.

- Lead financing processes and manage relationships with banks, lenders, and leasing providers.

- Evaluate major equipment purchases and investments based on return, cash flow, risk, and financing options.

- Build scalable financial systems, controls, and processes.

- Support fundraising, investor reporting, board materials, audits, and financial diligence.

- Manage external accounting, tax, audit, and financial partners.

ABOUT YOU

You have at least five years of relevant finance experience, including:

- Experience leading finance at an early-stage, high-growth, technology, industrial, or R&D-driven company.

- Strong hands-on experience across accounting, FP&A, treasury, and operational finance.

- Experience evaluating or securing loans, equipment financing, leases, or other forms of capital.

- Experience building financial systems and processes from the ground up.

- The ability to move comfortably between strategic planning, external negotiations, and detailed execution.

- Excellent analytical, organizational, negotiation, and communication skills.

- High integrity, sound judgment, and a strong sense of ownership.

Experience with capital-intensive businesses, lender relationships, venture financing, or non-dilutive funding is a plus.

WHAT YOU GET FROM US

- Competitive salary and meaningful early-stage equity

- Relocation support if applicable

- Employee Health Benefit Plans

- 6% Retirement matching

- Flexible PTO

- Free lunches, snacks, and a stocked fridge at our offices

- AI tools and subscriptions

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
