About the company
Hi, we're Ondo Finance. Our mission is to provide institutional-grade, blockchain-enabled investment products and services. We have both a technology arm that develops decentralized finance technology, and an asset management arm that creates and manages tokenized funds. We were the first company to tokenize exposure to US Treasuries, and have since expanded into several other assets. We are also focused on incubating protocols that can support both tokenized real-world assets and traditional crypto.
Founded by folks from Goldman Sachs Digital Assets Team, we’re backed by some of the best investors in the world including Founders Fund, Coinbase Ventures, Pantera Capital, Tiger Global, and more. We are currently the leaders in the space in terms of AUM and are well capitalized to continue growing the firm. We're fully remote, with team members across the U.S.
About the role
We're looking for a VP of Finance to build a team and a scalable financial infrastructure. You’ll be responsible for putting core financial infrastructure in place — from forecasting and reconciliation to compensation and reporting — while also partnering directly with leadership on strategic initiatives across tokenomics, treasury strategy, and opportunistic M&A.
The boundary between corporate finance and corporate development is still being defined; this is a rare opportunity to help shape the long-term structure and scope of the function. The role is inherently cross-functional and commercial — ideal for someone who is comfortable operating in ambiguity, and excited to blend hands-on execution with strategic leadership.
Crypto-native experience is required due to the complexity of our on-chain financial operations.
Target outcomes
- Build a best-in-class finance organization, including FP&A, reporting, compensation, and controls.
- Implement robust forecasting and reconciliation systems across fiat and crypto assets.
- Shape the finance function's scope in collaboration with leadership and corporate development.
- Partner on strategic initiatives such as token buybacks, hedging, deal structuring, and M&A.
- Develop a hiring plan and recruit strong finance operators as the team scales.
Responsibilities
- Own all corporate finance functions including forecasting, budgeting, reporting, and reconciliation.
- Design and implement financial infrastructure to support tokenized products and crypto-native operations.
- Establish systems for managing complex employee compensation across tokens, RTUs, and equity.
- Support corporate decision-making on capital allocation, tokenomics, and strategic investments.
- Navigate the evolving line between corporate finance and corporate development.
- Lead or support high-leverage strategic projects such as token buybacks, treasury strategies, or acquisitions.
- Hire and manage key finance roles across FP&A, accounting, and financial operations.
- Ensure regulatory compliance, audit preparedness, and operational excellence as the company scales.
Requirements
- 8+ years of experience in finance leadership roles, ideally in high-growth, venture-backed or crypto-native companies.
- Deep experience managing both fiat and crypto financial infrastructure; strong familiarity with on-chain assets.
- Proven ability to build finance functions from scratch — both operational and strategic in scope.
- Strong commercial instincts; experience supporting exec-level decision making and board-level reporting.
- Excellent communication skills and ability to operate in fast-paced, ambiguous environments.
Nice to haves
- Experience at a tokenized asset platform, DeFi protocol, or crypto fund.
- Background in investment banking, corporate development, or strategic finance roles.
- Familiarity with GAAP accounting, tax planning, and international corporate structuring.
What we offer
- Competitive compensation including but not limited to salary, future token rights, and/or equity (according to your preferences) — We are well-funded and believe that great talent deserves great compensation.
- Full benefits (medical, vision, and dental) and flexible vacation policy (PTO).
- Remote-first team across many countries — You will be an early team member helping shape our vision, culture, and design practices.
- A+ colleagues — Our team includes alumni from: Goldman Sachs, Blackrock, Two Sigma, Bridgewater, SpaceX, AWS, Meta, Google, McKinsey, Circle, Uniswap.
- Best-in-class investors — We are proud to be backed by leading crypto experts and VCs, including Pantera Capital, Founders Fund and Coinbase Ventures.
