Bookkeeping lives in one place, taxes in another, reporting in spreadsheets, forecasting in someone’s head, and founders are left trying to piece together what is actually happening in the business.\nWe want Finta to become the go-to solution for the entire finance function: accounting, taxes, financial reporting, budgeting, forecasting, and real-time insights, all in one place.\nWe raised $2M from Y Combinator, Mercury’s CEO, and leaders at Mercury, Brex, and Ramp. Since launching in 2023, we have grown organically through word of mouth and now serve hundreds of paying customers.\nWe are a small, high-caliber team with a bias for shipping. There are no layers here. You’ll work directly with Andy, the founder, and get close to customers, product, positioning, and GTM.\nThis is a founding role where the scope can expand quickly if you earn trust. We work together in person 5 days a week in San Francisco, near the Ferry Building, and expect people to take ownership without needing a lot of structure.\nAbout the role\nWe’re hiring a Community/Events Lead to build Finta’s presence inside the YC founder community.\nThis is not a generic growth role. You will not be running paid ads, SEO, lifecycle campaigns, or broad demand gen.\nThe core motion is simple: get the right YC founders in the room, create a great experience, build trust, and turn those relationships into customers, referrals, content, and long-term distribution.\nYou’ll own the full loop:\nHost events for YC founders\nTake YC founders out to dinner\nSend targeted outbound emails to YC founders\nPartner with companies like Brex, Ramp, Mercury, Stripe, Rippling, Rho, Slash and others to co-host events\nTurn founder conversations into pipeline, content, referrals, and product feedback\nWhat you’ll do\nHost high-quality events for YC founders, including dinners, roundtables, office hours, happy hours, and tactical finance sessions\nBuild targeted invite lists based on batch, stage, company type, funding status, and finance needs\nWrite outbound emails that founders actually reply to\nPartner with startup ecosystem companies to co-host founder events\nOwn event execution end to end: concept, guest list, venue, invites, reminders, run of show, experience, and follow-up\nBuild real relationships with founders, not transactional lead-gen funnels\nTurn founder conversations into useful content, including event recaps, finance guides, social posts, partner content, and customer stories\nTrack what matters: invites, replies, RSVPs, attendance, meetings booked, pipeline created, customers closed, and referrals generated\nBring founder feedback back into product, positioning, and sales\nBuild the playbook for how Finta grows through the startup ecosystem\nYou’ll be a good fit if you\nHave experience in founder-facing GTM, events, partnerships, community, VC/platform, startup sales, or early-stage marketing\nLove being around startup founders and can quickly build trust in a room\nCan host a dinner, run a room, and make people feel like the event was worth their time\nAre excellent at written outreach\nCan write emails that feel personal, sharp, and not spammy\nAre commercial. You understand events should create trust, pipeline, customers, and referrals\nAre highly organized and can manage a lot of small details without dropping the ball\nHave taste. You care about venue, guest mix, conversation quality, timing, follow-up, and how Finta is perceived\nCan work independently in an ambiguous, early-stage environment\nAre excited to become deeply credible on startup finance, accounting, taxes, reporting, and forecasting\nUse AI tools to move faster, research better, personalize outreach, and run a tighter system\nYou should not join Finta if\nYou want to run paid ads, SEO, lifecycle marketing, or generic demand gen\nYou want a role that is mostly strategy and not hands-on execution\nYou think events are just logistics, catering, and check-in lists\nYou dislike outbound\nYou are uncomfortable being in person with founders regularly\nYou need a large team, big budget, or clear playbook to operate\nYou are not excited about startups, YC, or founder communities\nYou optimize for motion instead of progress\nWhy join\nOwn one of Finta’s most important GTM motions from the beginning\nWork directly with the founder\nHelp make Finta the go-to finance solution for startups\nBuild relationships across YC, founders, VCs, and top startup ecosystem partners\nOwn events, partnerships, content, and founder distribution\nJoin a small team with strong organic growth, hundreds of paying customers, and top-tier investors\nCompensation and benefits\nCompetitive salary plus meaningful equity: $120k-160k + 1% equity + bonus\nMedical, dental, and vision insurance\nMeals, gym membership, and professional education benefits\nMonthly team events and annual company offsite\nVisa sponsorship and relocation support available\nImportant\nIn addition to applying, please email Andy with:\nOne event, community, or founder-facing GTM project you are proud of\nA short plan for how you would get 30 YC founders to show up to a Finta dinner","description_format":"text","description_chars":5203,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity","Gym membership","Vision insurance"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":true,"industries":["Accounting & Bookkeeping Services","Tax Advisory & Preparation"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-25T18:08:42Z"}],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.859,"p_room":1,"age_days":5,"expected_fill_days":24,"reasons":["conf:7","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-01T05:45:00Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":160000,"is_top_pay":false},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/finta-communityevents-lead","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/finta-communityevents-lead.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-01T20:35:42Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","usage":{"tier":"crawler","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":2998,"day_limit":5000,"remaining_today":2002,"minute_limit":60,"resets_at":"2026-10-02T00:00:00Z"}}}
