About Campfire
Campfire is a next-gen core accounting platform built for modern mid-market finance teams. We help them close fast and scale even faster. Our platform replaces outdated legacy ERPs and manual accounting processes with automation-driven solutions that simplify and accelerate finance workflows. In the past year alone, we have grown 10x, driven by strong customer demand and a product that delivers real results for accounting & finance teams. We are scaling quickly and building the future of finance by giving teams the clarity, control, and strategic visibility they need to lead with confidence.
About the Role
We're looking for a strategic, execution-oriented CFO to lead Campfire's financial operations and help shape the company's next phase of growth. This is a seat at the leadership table — you'll partner closely with the CEO and board to drive business strategy, capital decisions, and long-term planning.
What You'll Do
Own the financial narrative - Serve as a key executive voice to investors, board members, partners, and the broader market, representing Campfire's vision and financial story with clarity and conviction.
Lead financial planning, forecasting, budgeting, and reporting across the company
Drive fundraising strategy, investor relations, and capital allocation decisions
Build and scale the finance, accounting, and operations functions
Partner with GTM, Product, and Engineering leaders to inform pricing, unit economics, and growth decisions
Ensure strong financial controls, compliance, and audit readiness
Evaluate strategic partnerships, and other corporate transactions
What We're Looking For
10+ years of finance leadership experience, ideally in high-growth SaaS or enterprise software
Prior experience as CFO or VP Finance at a venture-backed company preferred
Track record of leading fundraising rounds (Series B and beyond) or taking a company public
Strong communicator who can translate complex financial data into strategic insight for diverse audiences
Operator mindset — comfortable getting into the details while keeping an eye on the big picture
A true product champion — You'll use Campfire daily as a core part of running the finance function, and carry that firsthand experience into every external conversation, embodying what it means to be a customer and ambassador of the product you help build.
Deep integrity and sound judgment in ambiguous, fast-moving environments
