Director of Finance

About Us

At Articul8 AI, we relentlessly pursue excellence and create exceptional AI products that exceed customer expectations. We are a team of dedicated individuals who take pride in our work and strive for greatness in every aspect of our business. We believe in using our advantages to make a positive impact on the world and inspiring others to do the same.

About the Role

We are seeking a highly driven, hands-on Director of Finance to serve as the financial engine of the company during a critical stage of growth. This is not a traditional corporate finance role. This is a builder role.

You will serve as a senior individual contributor within a fast-paced, high-growth startup environment, leading Revenue Operations, Financial Operations, Pricing Strategy, Financial Planning, and financial engagement with investors and the Board of Directors.

You will work closely with executive leadership, commercial and operations teams, and an external finance function. This role demands both strategic perspective and hands-on execution. The right candidate is comfortable navigating ambiguity, makes sound decisions with incomplete information, and maintains rigor while moving at speed.

Success in this role requires strong ownership, decisive judgment, and a results-oriented mindset. You should be proactive in identifying issues, confident in making independent decisions, and committed to maintaining high standards of accuracy and discipline.

As there is no large internal finance team, you must be effective at driving outcomes through influence, well-designed processes, and collaboration with external partners. The ability to lead cross-functionally without formal authority is essential.

For a high-performing individual, this role offers a clear trajectory into broader finance leadership — such as Head of Finance or VP of Finance — based on demonstrated impact and results, particularly as Articul8 continues to scale.
