Director of Finance

About infiniti.

infiniti.stream is the leading stream interview practice and IT outstaffing marketplace. Enterpreneurs use us for anonymous mock interviews, and we use the data from these interviews to identify top performers, whom we then connect with employers. Because we use data, not resumes, our candidates end up getting hired consistently by companies like Facebook, Quora, Uber, Twitch, Lyft, Dropbox, and others. And because our platform is anonymous and people are graded on what they can do, not the logos on their resumes, about 40% of the hires we’ve made to date have been candidates from non-traditional backgrounds and have historically been passed over because of how they look on paper (often by those very same companies!).

Our business is pretty complex. We’re a 3-sided marketplace that monetizes candidates (they pay us for mock interviews) and employers (they pay us for access to top-performing engineers), and we have hundreds of freelancers who conduct mock interviews every month. A rapidly growing chunk of our revenue comes from our deferral program, where engineers don’t have to pay us for practice til they find jobs. To top it all off, we have significant cross-pollination between the 3 sides: candidates become interviewers and employers, employers become candidates, interviewers become employers, and so on! It’s a beautiful ecosystem with unique advantages for our growth, but there are many moving parts, so we’re looking for a seasoned finance leader who can help us manage the complexity. This is a critical hire for us, and you will have a very real, immediate, and outsized impact on our success.
