Head of Strategic Finance

Here at Humanoid, we believe in a future where robots amplify human potential. That’s why we’ve set out on a mission to build the world’s most capable, commercially-scalable, and safe humanoid robots. We’re bringing that mission to life with HMND‑01 - our rapidly developed humanoid platform being deployed in real industrial environments - and we’re growing the team to take it even further.

We're hiring a Strategic Finance lead to be the CFO's right hand on the decisions that shape Humanoid's path from pilots to mass production and, ultimately, the public markets. You'll own the models behind how we price, build, fund and grow, and turn them into clear recommendations for the leadership team and the board.

• →

  Build and own the unit economics model per robot: BOM, landed cost, deployment,

service, uptime and cost per effective hour versus human labour.

• →

  Track the cost-down path across product generations and tie engineering and supply-

chain decisions to margin impact.

• →

  Model customer payback and lifetime value by segment, use case and contract

structure.

• Design pricing for Robot-as-a-Service (RaaS) and outright purchase, including volume

tiers, multi-year step-downs, service levels and software add-ons.

• Build deal models for large enterprise contracts and support commercial teams

through negotiation.

• Partner with Legal and Accounting on revenue recognition implications of contract

structures (e.g. lease versus service).

facilities, including covenants, amortisation and headroom.

model that ties production ramp, headcount, capex and cash.

and runway visible to leadership and the board.

capital.

• Partner with Operations, Supply Chain and our contract manufacturers on capacity

plans, capex, inventory, standard costing and supplier terms.

mass production

• 7+ years in strategic finance, FP&A, corporate development or investment banking,

  capex, inventory and contract manufacturing, ideally in robotics, automotive, EV,

  aerospace or industrial technology.

• Proven track record on unit economics and pricing, including recurring or usage-based
