Job description

Katalyst Description:
Katalyst is an American technology company focused on dynamic space operations. We are building a fleet of dual-use multipurpose robotic space vehicles to create the future where maneuvering, upgrading, refueling, resupply and exploration are as routine as they are on Earth. Getting to space and overcoming the gravity well is only half the story. What you do there is the future. We are not building the trains. We are building the machines that lay down the tracks. By developing the foundational capabilities that make sustained, responsive operations possible, we enable a new era of space exploration that strengthens national security and ensures freedom of action in an increasingly contested domain.
Katalyst Culture:
Working at Katalyst is intense, hands-on, and deeply rewarding. You'll take real ownership and see your work move from concept to operations in an environment where the problems are hard and the impact is real. We value humility, craftsmanship, and doing things the right way, even when it's harder. You'll work closely with thoughtful, driven teammates who push each other to do their best.
Overview
Katalyst is seeking a highly capable, hands-on Director of Finance own the company's full finance operating rhythm across monthly close, budgeting and forecasting, cash management, accounts payable, accounts receivable, financial reporting, internal controls, and strategic finance support.
This leader will be expected to operate as both a player and a builder: personally driving core accounting and finance processes in the near term while designing the systems, controls, and team structure needed to scale the business over time. The Director of Finance will serve as a key thought partner to leadership team, ensuring the company has accurate financials, strong operating discipline, and forward-looking financial visibility.
This role is especially well suited for a finance leader who thrives in early-stage environments, can move fluidly between detail and strategy, and is excited to build a finance function that will support the company through its next phase of growth.

  2. Design and implement scalable finance processes, controls, policies, and reporting cadences
  3. Build the finance roadmap, including team design, systems architecture, and outsourcing strategy where appropriate
  4. Hire, develop, and lead future finance team members across accounting, FP&A, and AP/AR as the company grows
  5. Establish clear ownership, documentation, and standard operating procedures across all core finance activities

  1. Lead the monthly close process, including reconciliations, journal entries, accruals, prepaids, revenue recognition considerations, and financial statement preparation
  2. Ensure accurate and timely monthly, quarterly, and annual financial reporting
  3. Maintain budget-to-actual reporting and variance analysis across departments

  5. Prepare management reporting packages and support board-level reporting
  6. Translate financial results into actionable insights, risks, and recommendations

Lead accounting operations and controllership activities
  1. Own day-to-day accounting operations in a hands-on manner until team scale supports greater delegation
  2. Oversee and improve accounts payable, procurement controls, accounts receivable, invoicing, and collections
  3. Maintain balance sheet integrity through timely reconciliations
  4. Ensure disciplined expense classification, cutoff, and period-end accruals
  5. Develop and maintain internal controls appropriate for a scaling venture-backed business
  6. Prepare the company for increasing audit, diligence, tax, and investor reporting

Drive budgeting, forecasting, and strategic finance
  1. Develop monthly cash flow forecasts, including a rolling detailed cash forecast and long-term runway model
  2. Partner with the leadership team on hiring plans, expense decisions, and resource allocation
  3. Support pricing, vendor, customer, and investment decisions with financial analysis and scenario modeling
  4. Support fundraising readiness by ensuring the company's financial story, metrics, and supporting schedules are credible and consistent

Cash management and working capital ownership
  1. Monitor daily and weekly cash position and ensure strong visibility into liquidity
  2. Manage payment timing, collections, and cash conversion discipline to preserve runway
  3. Build and maintain clear reporting on burn rate, runway, and key cash drivers
  4. Identify risks and opportunities related to working capital, customer receivables, vendor obligations, and large spend commitments

Systems, controls, and GAAP readiness
  1. Lead the migration from the company's current accounting environment to a GAAP-compliant accounting system and finance infrastructure capable of supporting scale, investor expectations, and future audit requirements
  2. Assess and improve the current accounting systems, close processes, chart of accounts, and reporting architecture
  3. Implement systems and workflows that improve data integrity, auditability, and reporting efficiency
  4. Establish accounting policies and procedures aligned with U.S. GAAP and the needs of a venture-backed business

Compliance and government contracting support
  1. Partner with internal and external stakeholders to support tax, compliance, and regulatory requirements
  2. Help ensure finance processes and records are maintained in a manner consistent with applicable government contracting expectations, including familiarity with DCAA/DCMA-related accounting environments, cost structures, and documentation disciplines

What We're Looking For
  1. You're a hands-on builder with strong judgment for balancing accuracy and efficiency
  2. You have meticulous attention to detail and enjoy producing financial and cost data that stands up to scrutiny
  3. You like owning the numbers end-to-end and understand how they impact programs, contracts, and business decisions
  4. You enjoy digging into cost structures and variances and turning them into clear, useful insights for leadership and program teams
  5. You're comfortable working in ambiguity and building frameworks, systems, and processes as the organization grows and matures
  6. You enjoy working closely with engineering, operations, and program teams and helping finance enable execution

Additional Requirements: Must be willing to work extended hours and weekends as needed.
Compensation and Benefits: Your base salary will be determined on a case-by-case basis and may vary based on the following considerations: job-related knowledge and skills, education, and experience. The anticipated salary range for this role is $170,000 - $220,000 annually.
Base salary is just one part of your total rewards package at Katalyst. You will also be eligible for long-term incentives, in the form of the Employee Stock Option and Equity Plan, as well as a relocation bonus and other discretionary bonuses. You will also receive access to comprehensive medical, vision, and dental coverage, and unlimited Paid Time Off.
At Katalyst our work on projects involving the U.S. Department of Defense requires adherence to International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), 22 C.F.R. Parts 120-130, which requires compliance with U.S. export laws before allowing employees to perform certain positions. Currently, our available roles necessitate access to ITAR-controlled information, and as a result, Katalyst would have to ensure any non-US person is authorized access to ITAR information before the commencement of employment. We are committed to equal employment opportunities and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or national origin.
