Role: 

We believe money should move instantly, globally, and without friction. Our products power brokerage and Bitcoin-backed lending for individuals and businesses around the world.

We operate lean. We move quickly. We care deeply about capital discipline.

We are hiring a Strategic Finance Lead to help architect the financial engine behind our next stage of growth. This role sits at the center of capital allocation, pricing, long-range planning, and investor engagement.

This is not traditional FP&A. This is a role for someone who understands capital, risk, and scale.

Responsibilities

• Own the company’s financial architecture - long-range planning, multi-scenario modeling, and company-level decision support
• Drive financial strategy across brokerage and lending, with clear return and risk frameworks
• Lead lending and pricing economics, including loan book profitability, stress testing, and structured pricing strategy
• Define the operating and financial metrics that matter, building durable modeling infrastructure that scales with the business
• Support board and investor engagement, translating complex financial dynamics into clear, disciplined narratives
• Operate cross-functionally across Treasury, Accounting, Data, Product, and Partnerships to ensure financial rigor is embedded in how Strike builds and deploys capital

Requirements

• 7–12 years in investment banking, corporate finance, private credit, capital markets, fintech finance, or similarly rigorous environments
• Experience modeling credit or balance sheet-driven businesses
• Strong intuition for cost of capital, financial structuring, and capital efficiency
• Experience working cross-functionally with treasury, accounting, data, or product teams
• Experience supporting senior leaders and interacting with boards or investors
• Advanced financial modeling skills (multi-scenario, sensitivity, stress testing)
• Clear, concise communicator - able to turn complexity into insight
• High ownership mindset; comfortable building from zero
• Fintech, financial services, or crypto experience is a plus

Why This Role Matters

• Strike builds real financial products. Capital efficiency and risk discipline are not optional.
• This role helps ensure we scale with clarity, resilience, and strong financial foundations.
• If you want to build the financial backbone of a Bitcoin-native institution, we’d love to talk.
