[Remote] Director of Finance

Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Homeaglow is a technology platform connecting customers with independent cleaning professionals through a home services marketplace. The Director of Finance will lead strategic financial planning, modeling, forecasting, and finance and accounting operations while advising leadership on pricing, unit economics, capital allocation, and growth initiatives.

Responsibilities

• Partner directly with the leadership team to translate financial data into strategic recommendations — pricing, unit economics, capital allocation, and growth bets
• Build and maintain financial models that drive decision-making, not just report history. Your models should answer “what should we do” as much as “what happened.”
• Identify inflection points in the business before they show up in the income statement — through cohort analysis, leading indicators, and operational metrics
• Evaluate new initiatives, partnerships, and investments with rigorous but fast financial analysis. Be the person who pressure-tests ideas without killing momentum
• Develop a deep understanding of our unit economics (CAC, LTV, RNR, contribution margin) and communicate them clearly to inform resource allocation and prioritization
• Lead and develop the Finance and Accounting teams, setting high standards for accuracy, timeliness, and analytical rigor
• Own the monthly, quarterly, and annual close process — but orient your team toward forward-looking insight, not just backward-looking reconciliation
• Ensure financial reporting is clean, consistent, and audit-ready. Establish controls and processes that scale with the business
• Manage cash flow, runway, and treasury with a clear-eyed view of the company’s financial position at all times
• Oversee tax strategy and compliance, working with external advisors as needed
• Drive the annual planning process — not as an exercise in spreadsheet management, but as a tool for aligning the company on priorities and trade-offs
• Maintain a rolling forecast that reflects real business dynamics, not just last year plus a growth rate
• Build scenario models that help leadership understand the financial implications of different strategic paths

Skills

• 7+ years of progressive finance experience, with meaningful time in FP&A, investment banking, management consulting, or a high-growth startup
• Demonstrated experience influencing business strategy with financial analysis — not just building models, but changing decisions
• Strong command of unit economics, cohort modeling, and the financial drivers of marketplace or subscription businesses
• Exceptional communicator who can translate complex financial concepts into clear, actionable insights for non-finance stakeholders
• Prior experience managing a finance or accounting team
• High comfort with ambiguity. You don't need perfect data to form a useful point of view
• Low ego, high standards. You'd rather be right than look smart

Benefits

• Health insurance fully covered by the company.
• Parental leave.
• Flexible / unlimited PTO policy.
• Cleaning membership perk – Free Homeaglow membership with complimentary cleanings. Enjoy up to 2x cleanings a month, capped at $200 USD per cleaning.
