[Hiring] Head of Finance @Bolt.new

Role Description

You'll be Bolt's 1st full-time finance leader, working directly with our COO to build out the function. This is a foundational role: you'll shape and own our processes for FP&A and board-level reporting, quote-to-cash, deal desk, procurement, and sales compensation, and you'll partner with Product and Growth on pricing & packaging.

Finance at Bolt is not a back-office function. You'll get operationally involved in every department of the business, and because we're an AI-native company, you'll build agents to handle the repetitive work so you can spend your time on the decisions that move the numbers.

You will be a key partner in building the operating backbone for Bolt's next stage of growth.

How You'll Contribute

• Close & Reporting: Run monthly/quarterly close, consolidations, and reconciliations; deliver a fast, accurate investor and board reporting pack (ARR/NRR, retention, cash).
• FP&A Budgeting & Forecasting: Establish quarterly budgets by team; drive rolling forecast and unit economic analysis; monitor plan vs. actual for the full P&L.
• Revenue Recognition & Controls: Author ASC 606 policies, review deals/terms, maintain control evidence; support both external audits and SOC 2 readiness.
• Quote-to-Cash: Define and maintain order flows, invoicing, collections, cash app, and credit risk processes; reduce DSO and exceptions across Rillet ⇄ Stripe ⇄ Snowflake ⇄ HubSpot.
• Pricing & Packaging: Partner with Product and GTM to design, test, and measure monetization strategies; set up an ongoing experimentation loop.
• Deal Desk: Own guardrails and discount policy for sales-assisted deals; lead non-standard approval processes with Product, GTM, and Legal.
• Compliance & Audit: Support external audits and SOC 2 readiness led by the CTO; ensure consistent process hygiene.
• Primary Tools: Rillet (ERP), Stripe (billing/payments), Snowflake (data—via data team BI tools), HubSpot (CRM).

Qualifications

• 8+ years in SaaS finance/accounting with end-to-end Q2C and revenue recognition ownership.
• Experience building/owning Deal Desk and sales compensation programs.
• Strong process and policy writer; effective operator across Product & GTM.
• CPA preferred, but not required.
• Demonstrated ability to improve close time, forecasting, and DSO.
• Strong verbal and written English communication skills are required, as this role involves frequent collaboration with team members, stakeholders, and customers where English is the primary working language.

Bonus Points

• Experience in PLG monetization experiments.
• Familiarity with SOC 2 audit processes and evidence management.
• Hands-on integration experience among ERP, billing, data, and CRM systems.
