- Own revenue recognition under ASC 606
- Own and manage the annual external audit
- Partner with Sales Ops on the full quote-to-cash cycle, to ensure clean revenue recognition, ARR reporting, and commissions calculations

- Partner with the CFO on budgeting, forecasting, and strategic finance projects as the company grows

Our take
Today, many organisations have well-defined policies and processes in place for responding to security gaps in their network and software infrastructures. However, it is common for these practices to not cover newer or less prevalent technologies, such as cloud infrastructure. Because of this, companies now need a way to address these challenges more urgently than ever.
Brinqa is focused on solving this problem by providing the most comprehensive coverage for risk analysis and management across entire enterprise technology infrastructures. By orchestrating the entire cyber-risk lifecycle, Brinqa is empowering organisations to elevate their security control and manage their vulnerabilities all in one place.
Brinqa has secured promising funds that it has invested in scaling its business and market expansion, as well as solidifying its position to address security challenges with seamless integration, high automation, and risk-based cybersecurity programs. It has also been building out its leadership to bring heightened expertise to the team and support its accelerating growth.
