You'll own the full function: strategic finance, FP&A, accounting, and all areas of compliance. You'll sit on the leadership team and partner directly with the founders and board on the decisions that shape where Narmi goes next. This is a high impact role. Importantly, you’ve done this before. You’ll get some quick wins on the board and apply your experience to help us scale quickly and avoid mistakes. You’ll bring a seasoned view to our Leadership Team but also a strong execution-oriented attitude. You'll inherit a mature team, clean books, and a finance function that runs well. Your job is to keep the "running well" part intact while also "setting up for what's next," whether that's continued growth, fundraising, or something bigger. ## What you'll own Strategic Finance & FP&A - Annual planning, forecasting, and board reporting - Business partnering with go-to-market, product, and engineering leaders. Specifically on pricing and margin strategies for new and existing products. - M&A readiness, deal modeling, and diligence support - Capital strategy and treasury - Fundraising support and investor relations Accounting & Controllership - Month-end close, financial reporting, and GAAP compliance - Annual audit, tax filings, and 409A process - Internal controls and audit readiness - Direct oversight of accounting operations ## Team & Leadership - Manage and develop the FP&A Manager and Accounting Manager - Assess and build the finance team as Narmi scales - Set the bar for how finance partners with the rest of the company ## What you bring - 10+ years of finance experience, with direct ownership of both FP&A and accounting/controllership functions - Prior startup experience in a high-growth and lean environment - Track record of scaling finance and accounting organizations through a meaningful growth phase - GAAP fluency and direct experience running an annual audit - Strong analytical and financial modeling skills - Comfort in a fast-paced, founder-led environment - History of being a strong partner to go-to-market and product leaders - AI-native operating style. You use AI as a daily force multiplier. You've automated workflows, built your own tools or agents, and used research tools to compress what used to take weeks into hours. You've kept up as the tools have changed and have opinions about which ones are worth the hype. You don't need a tutorial on prompt engineering. You won't need to be taught AI at Narmi. You'll be teaching us. Bonus points - CPA - Fintech, B2B SaaS, or financial infrastructure background - Banking or banking-as-a-service exposure - Public company readiness, IPO, or M&A experience This role's expected annual base salary is $245,000 - $280,000. Base salary is only part of your total compensation. In addition to base salary, you will receive an executive level equity option grant, and are eligible for performance-based cash and additional equity bonuses. Compensation included in an offer will be commensurate with the candidate’s skills, experience and geographic location. Compensation ranges for candidates located outside of New York City may differ. You will also receive a full benefits package. ## About Narmi ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Narmi provides a digital banking platform that enables community banks and credit unions to compete with mega banks and fintechs through modern account opening, payments, fraud prevention, and back-office tools. - **Entity Type**: Private (Series B, $55.6M total funding) - **Headquarters**: New York, New York, United States - **Founded**: 2016 - **Founders**: Nikhil Lakhanpal and Chris Griffin ## Core Business - **Primary industry**: Financial Technology (Fintech) / Digital Banking - **Target customers**: B2B; specifically community banks and credit unions (SMB to mid-market financial institutions) - **Mission statement**: "Enable community financial institutions to win against Mega Banks and FinTechs." ## Products & Services - **Narmi Grow**: Consumer and business digital account opening solution that can decision, fund, and open an account on the core in an average of 2 minutes and 13 seconds. - **Narmi Banking**: Core platform including instant payments over the FedNow Service. - **Narmi Guard**: Fraud prevention suite designed to stop fraud without compromising user experience. - **Narmi Command**: Streamlined digital back-office administrative platform for staff efficiency. - **Narmi Open**: Open API ecosystem and customizable integrations, allowing financial institutions to control their product roadmap. - **Narmi AI**: Agentic AI capabilities to power the future of banking. ## Market Standing - **Valuation**: Not publicly disclosed - **Key Metrics**: - **Annual Revenue**: Approximately $11.3M (as of most recent fiscal year) - **Total Funding**: $55.6M across 6 rounds - **Notable Investors**: Greycroft (led Series B), Picus Capital, New Enterprise Associates (led Series A) - **Growth Signals**: Headcount grew 14.5% YoY to 126 employees; deployed at financial institutions with hundreds of billions of dollars in deposits; expanding product suite with AI capabilities and FedNow payments. ## Competitive Advantages - **Deep integration with core banking systems**: Every product integrates with leading core systems, making adoption seamless for legacy institutions. - **Speed-to-value**: Account opening in under 2.5 minutes is a clear differentiator in a market where legacy processes take days. - **Founder-market fit**: Co-founders previously ran a financial institution (CEO and CTO) and later worked at large banks, giving them firsthand understanding of the customer's pain points. - **Open platform strategy**: Unlike monolithic vendors, Narmi’s API-driven approach lets FIs customize and control their tech stack. ## Strategic Focus - Deepening AI capabilities (Narmi AI) to automate and enhance banking workflows. - Expanding instant payment adoption via FedNow integration. - Growing the customer base among community financial institutions while maintaining high product quality. - Continuing to build out fraud prevention (Narmi Guard) as a critical layer. ## Why Work Here - **Remote-first culture**: "Work from anywhere... whenever you want" with flexible remote roles available. - **Home office stipend**: Up to $500 in reimbursements for home office equipment. - **Student loan repayment**: Narmi matches student loan payments dollar-for-dollar up to $2,500 per year. - **Standard benefits**: Competitive pay, 401k matching, medical/dental/vision insurance. - **Unique perks**: Volunteering time off, fitness & extra-curricular credits. - **Culture**: Monthly all-hands meetings for company-wide transparency; welcome lunches and happy hours to build connection. - **Engineering leadership**: SVP of Engineering Nathan Gonzalez and other senior leaders drive the technical vision. - **Open roles** (as of latest data): Applied AI Engineer, Director of Sales (West & East), VP of Finance & Accounting, Customer Success Associate, Director of Product Design, Lead Software Engineer - Payments, Senior Product Operations Associate, Fraud & Risk Solutions Lead. ## Sources 1.
