Parkade
Cameron, LA Full Time
POSTED ON 4/7/2025
AVAILABLE BEFORE 5/4/2025

Parkade's mission is to reshape cities and combat climate change by creating a world with far less parking, but one where it's a lot easier to park. Our hundreds of existing customers love Parkade, and investors do too - having just funded our Series A. We're now ready to get Parkade into every apartment, condo and office building and to do that, we need you.

We're looking for creative and strategic finance operator to join us as our finance leader, and first overall finance / accounting employee. The role may be director or VP level, depending on experience.

We have hundreds of customers around the globe, will hit $5m ARR in Q1 2025, process $25m in payments annually and just closed a large Series A from a syndicate of current and potential customers. This role is absolutely key to keeping Parkade on the path to hit $50m in ARR by the end of 2026, by building our the right process, team, reporting and strategy.

About you

  • 10 years of progressive experience in finance-leadership roles, with a focus on startups and growth-stage companies.
  • Prior financial leadership at a startup that grew from $5m ARR to $25-50m and raised at least $10m in venture capital during your time there.
  • Strong financial modeling, analysis and spreadsheet skills, with the ability to interpret complex financial data and communicate insights effectively.
  • Solid understanding of financial reporting standards, GAAP principles, accounting, spreadsheets, and regulatory compliance requirements. You've worked closely with accounting in multiple roles.
  • Excellent operational skills across a mix of areas, from managing vendor relationships to keeping tabs on accounts receivable to overseeing a rotating mix of insurance needs.
  • Exceptional leadership, communication, and interpersonal skills, with the ability to influence and collaborate with cross-functional teams.
  • Strategic thinker with a results-driven mindset and a strong focus on driving business growth and value creation.

Responsibilities (role)

  • Accounting : Manage our outside accountant and eventually hire a controller.

  • AR : Ensure customers are paying, and work with sales / operations teams to improve related processes
  • Board / investor relations : Help prepare board decks, help with fundraising (process, due diligence, etc), keep our investors in the loop, etc.
  • CEO : You'll report directly to our cofounder and CEO, Evan.
  • FP&A : Move us from a world without set budgets, to an annual, board-approved budget and forecast - and help define goals.
  • Misc : Help with options plans, 409(a), lease management, etc.
  • Reporting : Take over Parkade's homespun data reporting system, and work cross-functionally to put more scaleable systems in place. Ensure metrics are accurate and visible to everyone who should have them.
  • Product : Partner with product, design, engineering and operations teams to push for changes to our product to improve unit economics, retention and growth.
  • Sales collaboration : manage revenue, pays sales commissions, work collaboratively to creatively structure sales deal for mutual benefit between Parkade and our customers.
  • Treasury : Manage our cash.
  • Tax : Review tax policies and ensure compliance.
  • Bonus points

  • Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Business Administration, or related field (MBA or advanced degree preferred).
  • Location

    We're a hybrid team with about half the company working out of our San Francisco-Mission office. We have a strong preference, in this order, for someone in :

  • San Francisco who's willing to be in our office (mix of in-person and remote)
  • Los Angeles or Long Beach (remote or LA / LGB office)
  • Another part of California or its neighboring states (remote)
  • Applicants in other locations may apply, but will face long odds.
