What to Expect

Heron Power is a startup building cutting-edge power electronics for the 21st-century grid. We aim to debottleneck the growth of electricity generation and consumption with scalable, innovative, and cost-effective hardware solutions, accelerating the electrification of everything.

Our first goal is to build better converters (inverters & rectifiers) to connect large-scale renewables, storage, and loads to the grid. Heron’s leadership team is made up of seasoned veterans who have designed and shipped gigawatts of power conversion products.

We believe no one person knows everything. We learn together, build together, and solve hard problems from first principles. You’ll work in a fast-moving, deeply technical environment where ownership and impact are real.

Job Overview

We are seeking a Senior Corporate Finance Manager to own corporate finance at Heron Power. Reporting to the VP of Finance & Operations, you will own the company's financial model and forecast, lead board and investor reporting, and support execution on equity and debt financings as Heron scales from R&D into mass production and customer deployments. Working alongside business-facing finance colleagues, you will consolidate inputs from all areas of Heron and guide major capital allocation decisions.

• Run the annual planning process and quarterly reforecasts, maintaining both a long-term investor model and short-term cash forecast

• Create and lead the Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP) cycle with Commercial, Supply Chain, and Manufacturing, translating the demand pipeline and delivery schedule into inventory and working capital decisions

Reporting, BvA & KPIs

• Own monthly management reporting and budget vs. actuals in partnership with the Controller, explaining drivers of variances and improving forecast accuracy over time

• Build and maintain the company metrics and KPI dashboard (e.g. bookings, backlog, unit cost, burn, yield & quality, margins, cash runway) so leadership has one trusted view of performance

• Lean into modern AI tools and agents to automate reporting and shorten the cycle from close to insight

Capital Markets

• Own covenant compliance, lender reporting, and borrowing base calculations for existing and future facilities

Board & Investor Relations

• Prepare quarterly board materials and investor updates, including financial results, forecasts, and the narrative around the numbers

• Serve as the day-to-day point of contact for existing investors for managing information requests and ongoing communication
