Chief Financial Officer

Our Company

Miso Robotics is transforming the restaurant industry, and making food workers’ lives better. Our signature product is an AI-powered kitchen robot named Flippy which automates the dangerous operation of a restaurant’s fry station, and cooks all sorts of fried items. Flippy is powered by a sophisticated AI platform driven by our proprietary and patented technologies.

Miso is a well known first-mover in kitchen automation, AI, and robotics. The company has raised over $125 million from equity crowdfunding, which we believe makes it THE most successful crowdfunding story in history. It has successfully piloted its products with the most prominent global brands in food, and now it’s time for the company to scale. 

The company recently added a new CEO and other senior leaders, including a new CTO – all of whom hold decades of experience operating growth companies.  Our CEO has a track record of successful exits, and we recently accepted a strategic investment and partnership from Ecolab (NYSE: ECL), a $70 billion public company which, as the global leader in sales of cleaning solutions to restaurants, truly knows how to operate at scale.  Our new leadership team is evolving the company’s culture from early stage to growth stage with new processes and disciplines, and is supported by a board which includes the former President and CTO of OpenTable. 

With Ecolab’s support, we are building a world-class team, and are looking for more exceptional people to join us. 

Role Overview: As the CFO, you will be a true partner with the CEO by owning the financial well-being of the organization, and playing a critical role in shaping and executing our financial future. You will lead our upcoming institutional fundraising efforts, working closely with private equity firms and strategic investors to secure the capital needed for our growth and transformation initiatives. Additionally, you will oversee all financial operations, ensuring the company's financial health, and the execution of our financial and strategic goals.

Over the past year, the company has instituted new financial processes, systems, and discipline that had never existed before.  Additionally, the monthly cash burn was reduced by 40%, the financials were fully audited, and most of the company’s key commercial agreements were renegotiated.  With that heavy-lifting now largely complete and a new generation of our signature Flippy product launching later this year, the company is now turning its attention to revenue growth and scaling.

This is a special opportunity to be part of a senior team that is afforded a high degree of both responsibility and accountability at what is probably the most well-known and important company in food technology.

Key Responsibilities:

• Strategic Leadership: Partner with the CEO to further develop and execute the company's transformation strategy, providing financial insights and guidance.
• Fundraising: Lead the fundraising process, including identifying and engaging with investment bankers and potential investors, as well as preparing investment materials and managing investor relations.
• Financial Planning and Analysis: Oversee financial planning, budgeting, forecasting, and analysis to support strategic decision-making and drive financial performance.<
