We serve highly regulated industries where data protection, compliance, and digital sovereignty are non-negotiable. Our approach drives immediate, high-impact outcomes for security and compliance teams.

Unlike legacy solutions that rely on centralized scanning and opaque foreign components, Qohash delivers edge-centric intelligence, granular tracking of sensitive data elements, and a flat-rate pricing model built for clarity and scale. All software is developed, maintained in Canada.

Position Overview:

Qohash is hiring a Chief Financial Officer to lead our financial strategy and support the company through its next phase of growth and institutional financing.

You’ll report directly to the CEO and join the executive team as a key decision-maker. This role combines strategic financial leadership, investor readiness, and the mandate to build and scale an internal finance function.

Today, our core financial operations are currently outsourced to a professional finance services provider. We’re now insourcing the function, and the CFO will lead that transition. You’ll define what gets built in-house, what remains external, and how to structure the team and systems for scale.

This is a hands-on, high-impact role for a leader who thrives in high-growth SaaS environments and is ready to architect the financial engine of a fast-scaling company.

Key responsibilities:

  • Financial strategy and executive decision support

Success indicators: Forecast accuracy, clarity of reporting, quality of strategic input.

  • Fundraising preparation, capital planning, and investor relations
    Own the financial narrative, models, and due diligence process for upcoming equity financing. Prepare and present board materials, support investor meetings, and shape the financial story that underpins Qohash’s capital strategy.

Success indicators: Readiness for financing, clarity of board communications, quality of investor-facing materials, successful close of the financing round.

  • SaaS metrics and performance management
    Establish robust SaaS KPI tracking (CAC, payback, LTV/CAC, NRR, rule of 40, churn, margin) and provide data-driven insights to optimize go-to-market efficiency.

Success indicators: Consistent KPI improvements, actionable insights delivered to cross-functional teams.

  • Planning, budgeting, and forecasting
    Lead company-wide financial planning and build scalable forecasting models that support growth, hiring, and capital allocation.

Success indicators: Planning discipline, ability to adapt to different growth scenarios, alignment with business needs.

  • Finance function design and buildout
    Define and execute the roadmap to in-house finance maturity. Determine the right team, tools, and external relationships to scale operations.

Success indicators: Effective transition plan, scalable financial processes, right-sized finance organization.

  • Governance, compliance, and risk management
    Ensure audit readiness, tax compliance, internal controls, and adherence to regulatory standards.

Success indicators: Clean audits, minimized risk exposure, operational readiness for institutional scrutiny.
