Director of Finance & Operations

Fitt Talent Partners is a specialized recruitment firm for top health and wellness companies. 

We’re filling this role for a client, a design-forward technology company developing a category-defining breathing lamp.

Job Description

We’re hiring a Director of Finance & Operations — a hands-on, resourceful operator who thrives wearing many hats and taking full ownership across finance, operations, legal, and HR. This is a foundational role: you will partner closely with the CEO, build core business systems from the ground up, and keep the company running smoothly as we scale from early-stage to high-growth.

If you’re someone who is energized by rolling up your sleeves, solving problems independently, and building structure in a dynamic environment, this role is for you.

Responsibilities

• Finance

  • Build and manage financial models, budgets, forecasts, and scenario planning.

  • Establish and manage accounting, bookkeeping, cash flow management, and credit card/expense workflows.

  • Coordinate financial reporting and support fundraising efforts.

  • Prepare materials and data for investor updates, diligence, and board communication.

  • Own demand planning and unit economics across the hardware business.

  • Manage banking relationships, loans, payments, and financial compliance.

• Operations

  • Oversee manufacturing timelines and coordinate with hardware, firmware, and supply-chain partners.

  • Develop and manage logistics, order fulfillment partners, and inventory systems.

  • Track production schedules, and inventory health.

  • Build efficient processes that enable us to scale without friction.

  • Serve as the operational point person for launch readiness and product rollout.

• Legal & Compliance

  • Manage vendor agreements, NDAs, and contract workflows.

  • Maintain corporate governance documents and compliance cadence.

  • Administer equity through Carta and support cap table updates.

  • Coordinate insurance needs and risk management across the business.

• People & HR

  • Support onboarding, payroll coordination, and HR administration.

  • Support hiring processes, including role scoping, candidate coordination, and scheduling.

  • Help shape team culture, internal communication, and rhythms as we grow.

  • Manage benefits enrollment and employee documentation.

About You

• 3–5+ years of experience in finance, operations, or a similar cross-functional role (hardware or consumer products a plus).

• A proactive self-starter — you don’t wait to be told; you find what needs doing and get it done.

• Exceptionally organized with strong operational instincts.

• Highly reliable, positive, and resourceful — someone people trust to execute.

• Comfortable in early-stage ambiguity; able to build processes from zero.

• Strong analytical skills and financial fluency; excellent with spreadsheets and modeling.

• Ego-free, and collaborative — you elevate the team simply by how you work.

• Excellent communicator who can switch between high-level strategy and in-the-weeds

  execution.

• Motivated to help build a meaningful health & wellbeing company from the ground up.
