Emergent builds autonomous coding agents that replace traditional software development by generating, testing, and deploying production applications directly from plain-language intent. Our systems run in production at global scale and are used to build millions of real applications. Since our public launch, we've crossed $130M in Annualised Revenue and grown to over 10M users across 190+ countries, who have built 12M+ applications on Emergent. We're backed by Creaegis, Khosla Ventures, SoftBank, Lightspeed, Together, Y Combinator, Google, Claypond and Sentinel Global. We're solving the hard part of AI-driven software creation: correctness, reliability, security, and scale in real production systems. The team is built by repeat founders, Olympiad medalists, IIT & IIM alumni, and leaders from Google, Amazon, and Dropbox. We're hiring builders who want ownership, speed, and impact at global scale.

As CFO, you will work directly with the founders and leadership team to shape company strategy, capital allocation, fundraising, operational planning, and long-term value creation. You will help build the financial and operational foundation for a company operating at exceptional scale and speed, answering some of the most important questions facing the business: how to invest capital to maximize long-term growth, how to scale from $100M ARR to billions in revenue, how AI infrastructure economics evolve over time, and what a public-company-ready operating system looks like. Also, scope of the role will be aligned as per the interview feedback and overall fitment. What You'll Own: * Partner directly with the founders on company strategy and long-range planning, leading company-wide financial planning, forecasting, and resource allocation. * Develop frameworks for evaluating investments across product, infrastructure, growth, and enterprise, and help drive key decisions around pricing, monetization, and expansion. * Lead future financing activities across venture capital, growth equity, strategic capital, and debt, building relationships with investors, financial institutions, and strategic partners. * Partner closely with the founders on board management and investor communications, and help prepare the company for eventual public market readiness. * Own forecasting, KPI management, and operating reviews across the company, partnering with Product and Engineering on infrastructure investment decisions. * Develop frameworks around model costs, compute efficiency, gross margins, and capital efficiency. * Build and scale a world-class finance organization, overseeing accounting, tax, treasury, audit, compliance, and risk management. * Establish systems, controls, and processes capable of supporting global scale. What We're Looking For: * Experience helping scale a technology company from roughly $100M revenue toward $500M+ revenue. * Proven success leading fundraising and investor relationships. * Strong background in strategic finance, capital allocation, and business operations. * Exceptional communication and executive presence. * Ability to operate effectively in fast-moving, ambiguous environments. * High ownership, strong judgment, and deep curiosity about technology. Nice to Have: * AI, developer tools, infrastructure software, cloud, or SaaS experience. * Background in investment banking, growth equity, venture capital, or corporate development. * Experience preparing a company for IPO or large-scale liquidity events. * Experience working closely with founder-led organizations. Why Join Us: * Help shape the strategy, economics, and long-term trajectory of a company defining a new category of software. * Build a generational technology company from hypergrowth to global scale. * Work directly with founders and leadership at the center of the shift from human-written to AI-generated software. * Real ownership, meaningful equity, and global impact.
