To eliminate malware and zero-day attacks.
Role
Who you are
- A proven Finance leader with deep public company experience and ideally with IPO exposure
- Experience in scaling revenues and operations in both public and agile, high-growth private companies
- Someone who has led FP&A functions at scale with a bias for automation and efficiency
- In addition to IPO readiness, capital markets experience, including building investor relationships, and optimizing the capital structure, would be a strong plus
- A person who thrives on transparency, accountability, and measurable outcomes
- The ability to navigate complex multi-entity global operations
- Experience balancing strategic vision with hands-on execution in a high-growth environment
- This role is for someone who wants to do more than report the past. It is for someone who wants to shape the future
What the job involves
- Next year, our long-time finance leader, Simon, will move into a part-time role
- This creates an opportunity for someone exceptional to join me and our executive team as our new CFO
- I am not looking for someone to simply run Finance
- I am looking for a true partner, someone who will work closely with me and the executive team to build a performance-driven culture where every department and every function is measured financially and held accountable for results
- Public company experience is absolutely key
- I am seriously considering taking OPSWAT public in the near future, and you will play a critical role in making that possible
- This means preparing the organization with the right processes, discipline, governance, and investor relationships to succeed in the public markets
- Equally important is experience in scaling revenues and operations - someone who has navigated rapid growth while keeping the organization agile and efficient
- In addition to public company expertise, a track record in an agile, fast-moving private company is essential
- Partner directly with me, the executive team, and the Board to shape OPSWAT’s strategy
- Drive a culture where numbers are the foundation for decision-making
- Prepare and lead OPSWAT through a potential IPO with the rigor of a public company CFO
- Build world-class FP&A processes and leverage automation for faster and sharper insights
- Oversee finance for our 15 subsidiaries while ensuring compliance and operational excellence
- Optimize diverse revenue streams including SaaS subscriptions, software licensing, and hardware sales
- Solve the complex but exciting challenges of scaling a high-growth global business
- You will be stepping into a pivotal moment for OPSWAT with the chance to leave your mark not only on the finance function but on our culture and our future as a potential public company
Our take
Cyberattacks are becoming more sophisticated. For example, zero-day cyberattacks leverage vulnerabilities that are unknown even to the users and creators of a system. Tens of billions of dollars are being invested in protection, but OPSWAT delivers security solutions that nip the need for extra cyber defence in the bud.
The company's products focus on threat prevention, enacting a zero-trust mentality to ensure that technology systems are watertight from threats. For example, OPSWAT's MetaDefender platform incorporates advanced malware threat protection to detect vulnerable files and emails, as well as software, before it is even installed.
It’s this philosophy of “Trust No File, Trust No Device” that makes OPSWAT such a robust partner for the likes of AMEX and the United States Department of Justice. In addition to cyber protection products, the company also helps train future cyber defenders through its academy, which has trained 70,000 professionals so far.
