About the Role

~1 min read

We're looking for our first finance leader to build the function from scratch. Ultra has robots deployed in warehouses across the country, and our operational surface area is growing quickly. You'll own financial modeling and reporting that provides a clear view of business health. This is a build-it-yourself role — you'll stand up planning, reporting, and financial operations now, and hire a team underneath you as we scale.

Location: This is a on-site role based in New York City.
