About this role
Who are we?
Fuelfinance is on a mission to revolutionize financial management for early-stage startups, empowering them to take control of their finances and thrive. We recently raised $1M in Seed Funding from top-tier investors like Markus Villig (Bolt), John S. Kim (SendBird), Stratmind, and Bad Ideas funds, following 3 years of profitable, bootstrapped success. Trusted by businesses with over $200M in P&L, including Reface, Petcube, and Hampton, we’ve built a universal tool that brings clarity and insight to finance management.
With 38% of startups failing due to cash flow issues, our goal is to prevent these failures and unlock trillions in GDP growth. At Fuelfinance, we’re not just creating software — we’re safeguarding the future of thousands of startups. Join us and be part of this impact!
Who are we searching for?
We're looking for a Finance Engineer — someone who can turn manual finance and accounting processes into scalable, automated, AI-supported workflows. This role sits at the intersection of Finance, Accounting, Systems, Automation, and AI.
You'll work directly with our clients and their finance teams: understanding their processes, configuring tools, and building automations that make their finance operations faster, more accurate, and more insightful. Think of it as an advanced, engineering-powered evolution of a finance systems role — you won't just complete finance tasks; you'll design the systems that make finance work smarter.
Whether you're a finance professional who learned to build with AI, or an engineer who developed deep finance knowledge — if you're driven to eliminate repetitive manual work, we want you on our team!
What are your responsibilities?
- Build and improve workflows for reporting, forecasting, month-end review, reconciliations, and financial controls
- Work directly with clients: understand their finance and accounting needs, configure tools, support vendor onboarding, and own system improvements end-to-end
- Translate finance and accounting needs into system logic, automations, workflows, and documentation
- Automate repetitive finance work using AI tools, low-code tools, integrations, and internal workflows
- Connect and structure data from accounting systems, CRMs, payment tools, spreadsheets, BI tools, and data warehouses
- Build checks, controls, and validation logic to improve accuracy and reduce manual errors
- Partner with our engineering team on APIs, integrations, data pipelines, and workflow orchestration
What are the preferred requirements for the role?
- 5+ years of experience in finance systems, finance operations, automation, or engineering roles within complex multi-stakeholder or enterprise environments
- 1+ year of hands-on experience building AI-powered automations, agents, prompts, workflows, or internal tools (Claude / Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, custom LLM builds, or similar)
- Experience with APIs, system integrations, data warehouses, and automation tools
- Strong understanding of finance and accounting processes: month-end close, reconciliations, AP / procure-to-pay, revenue, reporting, and corporate finance
- Ability to understand how financial data flows between departments and systems
- Fluent English (C1+) and excellent client-facing communication skills — you'll work directly with customers' founders and finance teams
- Strong drive to eliminate repetitive manual work
- Proactivity and high level of responsibility
- Ability to work in a fast-paced environment
Will be a plus:
- Python or other scripting experience
- Experience administering financial, accounting, billing, or ERP systems
- Experience with tools like NetSuite, QuickBooks, Xero, Stripe, Salesforce, HubSpot, Zuora, BigQuery, Snowflake, PostgreSQL, Looker, Power BI, Tableau, Zapier, Make, n8n, or Workato
- Proven impact in numbers: hours saved, manual work reduced, faster reporting, or fewer errors
- Experience working with US-based clients or startups
Reporting Structure: reporting to the Head of FP&A
Recruitment Process:
- Soft skills interview with the recruiter
- Hard skills interview with the Head of FP&A
- Test task
- Culture fit interview with the VP of Operations
Why work with us?
- Build the future of finance work — design AI-native finance operations, not just maintain them
- Rapid skills improvement (you'll work with multiple client businesses with different models and challenges)
- Growth opportunities according to our seniority grading (it comes with a compensation increase)
- Flexible schedule and time-off policy
- 18 days of paid vacation per year, paid sick leaves
