You will oversee all aspects of finance for our U.S., Israel and international operations, manage a growing distributed team, and partner closely with leadership.

- Implement scalable systems and processes to support high-volume transactions and multi-currency operations.
- Ensure accurate and timely financial statements, cash flow management, and KPI tracking.
- Team Leadership
- Lead and develop a growing finance team, including Controller, Staff Accountant, FP&A and outsourced specialists in Israel.
- Foster a high-performance, approachable, and collaborative culture.
- Compliance & Controls
- Maintain compliance with U.S. GAAP, local regulations in Israel, and taxation requirements.
- Ensure strong internal controls and risk management practices.
- Growth Readiness

- Strong technical knowledge of accounting, FP&A, multinational and multi-entity operations.
- Hands-on leadership style — willing to dive into the details while guiding high-level strategy.
- Excellent communication skills and ability to work effectively with a distributed, multicultural team. Working under pressure, priority changes and getting stuff done on time mentality. Operate at the lowest level of details. Own every data point.
- CPA or equivalent qualification strongly preferred.
- Willingness to travel periodically between NY and Israel.
