About Unleash
Unleash is the world’s largest open-source FeatureOps platform - with over 13,000 GitHub stars, 35 million downloads, and 500+ paying customers, including companies like Lloyds Banking Group, Visa, Wayfair and Samsung.
We have established ourselves as a strategic enabler for how large enterprises build and release software.
In March 2026, we raised a $35M Series B led by One Peak, and are now scaling globally across Europe and the US.
As we continue to grow, building a robust and scalable finance function is critical to how we operate and make decisions.
As our Senior Financial Controller, you will play a key role in ensuring that our financial foundation is accurate, scalable, and built for the next stage of growth.
We are a remote-first company across 9 countries, with a Nordic culture built on trust, transparency, and autonomy.
Why join us?
This is a foundational finance role with high ownership and real impact.
You will work closely with the VP Finance & Ops and leadership team, and take ownership of accounting, reporting, and core finance processes from day one.
You will join at a stage where:
The company has strong traction and funding
The finance function is still being built
Your work will directly influence how we scale
This is an opportunity to build, not just operate, and to shape how finance works in a growing international company. You will have real ownership from day one, not just responsibility on paper.
Initially, you will work closely with external accounting partners across Norway and the US - and over time, help shape how the finance function evolves as the company grows.
What You Will Do
Accounting, Close & Reporting
Own the monthly close process and ensure accurate, timely, and well-documented financials
Take full ownership of statutory reporting and financial statements
Be the main point of contact for external accountants and auditors across Norway and the US
Ensure strong revenue recognition and correct handling of deferred revenue
Deliver clear monthly reporting on P&L, balance sheet, cash flow, and key variances
Financial Insight & Business Support
Translate financial data into insights that support decision-making
Support leadership with reporting, analysis, and financial perspectives
Contribute to board and investor reporting together with the VP Finance & Ops
Processes, Systems & Scale
Build and improve accounting processes, controls, and workflows
Own and evolve the accounting setup across entities and currencies
Evaluate and improve systems over time, including potential ERP implementation
Identify opportunities for automation and smarter use of technology
Day-to-day success
Financial accuracy: Financials are correct, reliable, and delivered on time
Close process: Month-end close is efficient and continuously improving
Insight: Financial reporting supports better decisions across the company
Scalability: Processes and systems are built to support continued growth
You might be a good fit if you have:
Strong accounting expertise and the ability to act as an internal authority on financial matters
Experience owning month-end close and financial reporting end-to-end
6–12+ years of relevant experience in accounting, controlling, or similar roles
Experience working with multi-entity setups and multiple currencies
High ownership and ability to operate independently in a lean environment
Strong communication skills - able to turn numbers into clear insights
We also think it would be beneficial if you have:
Experience from SaaS or high-growth companies
Background from audit, transaction services, or similar before moving into industry
Experience working across European and US entities
Experience improving finance systems and processes
Interest in using technology, automation, or AI to improve finance workflows
What We Offer
This is a rare opportunity to step into a high-ownership finance role at a well-funded, high-growth company with a product that real engineering teams depend on every day.
Work alongside a talented, mission-driven team across Europe and the US who move fast and build with care.
A foundational hire within our finance function - with real visibility, and clear room to grow as the company scales.
A company with real impact at some of the largest engineering organisations on the planet.
