Role
Who you are
- 5+ years of progressive accounting, controllership, or finance experience within SaaS or technology companies
- Deep expertise in full-cycle accounting, month-end close ownership, financial reporting, and GAAP
- Strong understanding of SaaS revenue recognition, including usage-based billing, credits, overages, and recurring revenue models
- Experience managing accounts receivable, collections, cash flow reporting, and operational finance processes
- Familiarity with SaaS metrics such as ARR, NRR, GRR, run-rate revenue, and DSO
- Proven ability to manage external accounting partners while maintaining ownership and accountability for outcomes
- Experience building and scaling finance processes in fast-growing environments
- We're looking for someone with exceptional ownership and agency
- You'll be responsible for a broad set of functions that today sit with our COO, so the ability to independently prioritize, identify issues early, and drive execution without heavy direction is critical
- You should be equally comfortable reconciling complex billing data, improving controls, partnering with stakeholders across the business, and rolling up your sleeves when needed
What the job involves
- You'll own the accounting and financial reporting foundation that helps Mintlify scale from its current stage toward $50M+ ARR
- This role sits at the center of our finance function, bridging our outsourced accounting partner, operational finance processes, and executive-level planning and reporting
- Owning month-end close end-to-end and ensuring accurate, timely financial reporting
- Managing payroll, sales commissions, bill payments, expense reviews, and approval workflows
- Leading accounts receivable, collections, and DSO improvement across Mintlify and Helicone
- Overseeing revenue recognition and billing reconciliation across usage-based, credit-based, and multi-year contracts
- Owning federal and state tax compliance, filings, and the implementation of compliance tooling
- Managing standalone financial reporting, intercompany accounting, and billing infrastructure for Helicone
- Building internal controls, improving accounting processes, and preparing the business for future audit readiness
- Producing reliable metrics and reporting that leadership, investors, and the board can trust
- Success in this role means creating a finance function that operates accurately, efficiently, and independently while enabling the company to scale confidently
- This is an opportunity to build the finance foundation of a rapidly growing company at a pivotal stage of scale
- You'll take ownership of a high-impact function that directly influences how leadership, investors, and the board understand the business
- Your work will create the systems, controls, and reporting infrastructure that enable Mintlify to grow efficiently and confidently toward the next stage of its journey
- You'll have significant autonomy, broad exposure across the company, and the opportunity to shape how finance operates from the ground up
- Rather than inheriting a large team and established playbook, you'll help design the processes, controls, and operating rhythms that support the next phase of growth
- If you enjoy solving complex operational challenges, building systems from first principles, and taking ownership of outcomes that matter across the entire organization, you'll have an outsized impact here
Our take
Software documentation has long been a challenge for developers, requiring significant time and effort to create and maintain. As companies like Stripe and Twilio set higher standards, the pressure on teams to produce clear, interactive documentation has increased, leaving many struggling to keep up with expectations.
Mintlify addresses this problem by offering a suite of documentation-authoring tools that simplify the creation process. The platform enables auto-generation of documents from codebases, features built-in templates, and incorporates AI-powered chatbots for enhanced user interaction.
With a growing customer base that includes prominent brands like Anthropic and Fidelity, and the recent closure of a successful funding round, Mintlify is poised for continued success. The company is further innovating its platform by personalising content and enhancing AI capabilities, positioning itself to meet the evolving needs of software documentation and support in the tech industry.
