Why Mintlify?

We're on a mission to empower builders.

Massive reach: Our docs platform serves 100 million+ developers every year and powers documentation for 20,000+ companies, including Anthropic, Microsoft, PayPal, Spotify, Coinbase, X, and over 20% of the last YC batch.
Small team, huge impact: We recently passed 65 employees and raised a $45 million Series B led by A16Z and Salesforce Ventures. Each new hire has a huge impact on shaping the company's trajectory.
Culture of slope over y-intercept: We value learning velocity, grit, and unapologetically unique personalities.

We grew in value faster than headcount and we’re looking to align the two quickly.

The Role

You'll be Mintlify's first finance leader. You'll take full ownership of it: the operating model the whole company plans against, the forecast, board and investor reporting, budgets, pricing economics, and cash strategy, plus accountability for the accounting layer beneath it, which you'll run through our outsourced partner and eventually a team you hire.

This is a builder role. On day one you are the finance function. The business you're modeling is genuinely interesting: hybrid self-serve and sales-led revenue, usage-based and credit billing, multi-year enterprise contracts, and a subsidiary.

What You'll Do

Build and own the company operating model
Own board and investor reporting
Roll out functional budgets and run budget-vs-actual with every team lead
Partner with Sales and Operations on pricing, packaging, and deal economics
Own treasury, runway planning, and fundraise readiness
Monthly close, payroll, billing reconciliation, tax and compliance
Scope and hire the finance team

What We're Looking For

8+ years of progressive finance experience, with leadership experience at a high-growth SaaS company ($10M–$100M ARR)
You've built and owned a driver-based operating model
You've produced board or investor materials that stood on their own
You understand usage-based billing and hybrid PLG + sales-led revenue mechanics deeply
You've stood up a finance function, or major parts of one, from scratch
You've been through at least one fundraise or major diligence process on the company side
You know what excellent controllership looks like and can hire and manage it
You're high-agency, fast, and low-ego

Nice to Have

Multi-entity/subsidiary accounting exposure
Experience selecting and implementing a modern finance stack
CPA or equivalent accounting depth
