Your Role
We’re looking for a finance leader who can see both sides of the map: traditional financial discipline and on-chain innovation. As VP Finance, you’ll be responsible for everything from capital planning and investor relations to treasury management and tokenomics.
You’ll oversee all of Sentient’s financial operations, forecasting, budgeting, and compliance, while also helping shape our token model, liquidity strategy, and ecosystem funding approach. This is a high-context, high-impact role for someone who can combine precision with creativity, and who’s comfortable building new systems from the ground up.
Your Responsibilities
Lead all corporate finance functions including budgeting, forecasting, and reporting
Oversee both fiat and crypto treasuries, ensuring liquidity, security, and efficiency
Build and maintain financial models that connect company performance with protocol economics
Manage investor relations, fundraising, and board-level communications
Collaborate with product, legal, and protocol teams on tokenomics, incentives, and compliance
Establish scalable systems for financial operations, audits, and internal controls
Develop frameworks for risk management, custody, and yield strategies
Support grants, contributor payments, and ecosystem funding programs
Serve as a strategic partner to the founders on capital allocation and long-term growth
What You’ll Need
10+ years in finance with experience leading or building at a high-growth startup
Understanding of both traditional finance systems and Web3 economics
Strong experience managing budgets, cash flow, and investment strategies
Familiarity with crypto treasuries, stablecoins, and DeFi tooling
Proven success with fundraising, investor communications, and financial modeling
Strong organizational skills and a clear, direct communication style
