As Director of Finance, you will lead our daily financial operations, manage and create new opportunities in revenue operations, serve as a strategic voice across teams, and ensure mission-critical processes are executed.

  • Partnering with Leadership: You’ll work directly with Enigma’s executive team to shape priorities and long-range planning. Your analysis won’t sit in a deck; it’ll drive how we make decisions.

  • Is well versed in Excel and has experience in building, maintaining and analyzing financial models and forecasts.
