About the role
About Us Fieldguide is establishing a new state of trust for global commerce and capital markets through automating and streamlining the work of assurance and audit practitioners specifically within cybersecurity, privacy, and financial audit. Put simply, we build software for the people who enable trust between businesses.
We’re based in San Francisco, CA, but built as a remote-first company that enables you to do your best work from anywhere. We're backed by top investors including Growth Equity at Goldman Sachs Alternatives, Bessemer Venture Partners, 8VC, Floodgate, Y Combinator, DNX Ventures, Global Founders Capital, Justin Kan, Elad Gil, and more.
We value diversity — in backgrounds and in experiences. We need people from all backgrounds and walks of life to help build the future of audit and advisory. Fieldguide’s team is inclusive, driven, humble and supportive. We are deliberate and self-reflective about the kind of team and culture that we are building, seeking teammates that are not only strong in their own aptitudes but care deeply about supporting each other's growth.
As an early stage start-up employee, you’ll have the opportunity to build out the future of business trust. We make audit practitioners’ lives easier by bringing together up to 50% of their work and giving them better work-life balance. If you share our values and enthusiasm for building a great culture and product, you will find a home at Fieldguide.
About the Role
We're looking for a Controller to build and lead our accounting function with an eye toward audit-readiness and eventual public-company standards. This is a foundational leadership role reporting to the VP of Finance, and you’ll be instrumental in establishing the institutional rigor that supports our next phase of growth.
This role is ideal for someone who thrives in building mode, not just operating within established systems. You'll partner closely with our Senior Director of FP&A and work cross-functionally with leaders across the company to ensure we have the financial infrastructure to scale. If you've taken a company through its first audit or helped build toward IPO-readiness, and you're energized by the prospect of doing it again at a mission-driven company, we'd love to talk.
