Own end-to-end finance for a growing SaaS company: manage month-end close and outsourced bookkeeping, vendor payments, audits, banking and cap table administration; handle multi-jurisdiction tax/VAT and FX exposure; build forecasts and 3-statement models; deliver investor reporting, SaaS metric tracking, and finance process automation with AI.

Wand makes gaming magical. Through game customization and guidance, we build tools that helps players have more fun in their favorite games.

Our platform works across thousands of PC games, ensuring that great games are accessible to everyone, regardless of time constraints, skill level, or accessibility needs. We want to build the future of game assistance, and we're hoping you'll join us.

THE ROLE

You’ll be our first dedicated Finance Manager, owning the finance function end-to-end and building it into something that scales. You’ll inherit a clean foundation: profitable recurring revenue, an outsourced bookkeeping relationship, a banking partner, and a global subscriber base collecting in multiple currencies. What we don’t have yet is the rigor, forecasting, and process architecture a growing company needs.

You’ll report to the COO and serve as the company’s financial conscience. Not a scorekeeper but a thought partner. You’ll ask the uncomfortable question: Are we pricing this right? Should we renegotiate that contract? Do we understand what’s driving margin compression this quarter? And you’ll answer them.

WHAT YOU’LL OWNFinance Operations
  • Manage our outsourced bookkeeping relationship and drive a clean, on-time month-end close

  • Approve vendor and contractor payments with appropriate judgment and controls

  • Quarterback our annual audit from kickoff to sign-off

  • Manage our banking and credit facility relationships: cash positioning, covenant compliance, and draw decisions

  • Administer our cap table and equity program, including option grants and exercises

Tax & Compliance
  • Own multi-jurisdiction sales tax and VAT compliance across 20+ US states and international markets; managing external advisors, filings, and registrations

  • Coordinate with external tax advisors on federal and state income tax, transfer pricing, and ongoing structuring questions

  • Monitor FX exposure from multi-currency revenue collection into a single USD account and flag hedging opportunities as they arise

Planning & Analysis
  • Own and maintain our quarterly growth model-revenue, margins, headcount, cash flow

  • Deliver clear, decision-ready financial analysis to the COO and leadership team

  • Track the metrics that actually matter for a subscription software business: NRR, gross margin, CAC payback, and cohort economics

  • Prepare investor and board-level financial reporting-clear, concise, and on schedule

Process & Infrastructure
  • Build the finance processes we’ll need at 100 people before we get there-approval workflows, procurement, controls, and reporting cadences

  • Proactively surface contracts and vendor relationships worth renegotiating

  • Integrate AI into finance workflows from day one-this isn’t a nice-to-have, it’s how we expect you to work

HOW YOU THINK
  • You ask questions before you build models. You want to understand the business, not just report on it.

  • You translate numbers into decisions, not decks. If the analysis doesn’t change behavior, you didn’t finish.

  • You’re energized by AI and automation-you’re already experimenting with tools that make you faster and smarter. Maybe you’ve been learning python on the side but haven’t been in a place to take advantage of it.

  • You see ambiguity as opportunity. You’d rather build the right process from scratch than inherit a mediocre one.

  • You have enough confidence to push back and enough humility to be wrong.

YOUR BACKGROUND

We’re not looking for a specific pedigree. We are looking for someone who has been in high-intensity financial environments and knows what “good” looks like. That usually means:

  • 5–8 years of experience with roots in investment banking, Big 4, or a top-tier FP&A program-and real time owning things in an operating company

  • Experience with subscription revenue models and the SaaS metrics that come with them

  • You’ve managed or meaningfully contributed to an external audit process

  • You can build a 3-statement model in your sleep and a cash flow forecast from a blank page

  • Familiarity with indirect tax (sales tax, VAT) and multi-currency revenue environments. You don’t need to be a tax specialist, but you shouldn’t be starting from zero

  • Bonus: You’ve worked at a company with 20–100 people and know what it feels like when the systems aren’t built yet.

COMPENSATION

$150,000 – $180,000 base salary

  • Equity participation

  • Fully remote, US-based

  • Medical, dental, and vision coverage

Wand is an equal opportunity employer. We believe the best games-and the best companies-are built by people with different perspectives, backgrounds, and experiences.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
