About Dash0

Join Dash0 and help us define the future of observability. We are OpenTelemetry-native, building a delightful, simple, and AI-centric platform that eliminates vendor lock-in and meaningless toil. Shape a product that developers love—all with transparent pricing and cost-control built in.

The Opportunity

Dash0 is looking for a Controller to own our financial accounting, reporting, and compliance processes. You'll ensure accuracy, transparency, and reliability in all financial operations while supporting leadership with structured financial insights.

This is a hands-on leadership role ideal for someone who enjoys building scalable financial processes in a high-growth SaaS environment. You'll work closely with the CEO, CRO, and external advisors to maintain financial health and support strategic decision-making.

What You'll Do

  • Own and oversee the monthly, quarterly, and annual financial closing processes, ensuring accurate preparation of financial statements.

  • Maintain general ledger integrity, financial documentation, and coordination with external tax advisors and auditors.

  • Implement and maintain internal controls, accounting policies, and compliance with local regulations, tax laws, and reporting standards.

  • Support annual budgeting and quarterly forecasting — provide variance analysis and structured financial insights to leadership.

  • Monitor cash flow, liquidity planning, and working capital to support investment and funding initiatives.

  • Own and improve financial systems and reporting tools, ensuring clean, scalable finance processes as the company grows.

  • Partner with Revenue Operations, HR, and Operations to ensure alignment across financial processes.

  • Support board reporting and investor updates with accurate financial data.

What You Bring

  • Proven experience as a Controller, Senior Accountant, or Finance Manager in a SaaS or high-growth environment.

  • Strong knowledge of accounting standards and financial compliance.

  • Experience managing month-end close and financial reporting processes end-to-end.

  • Strong analytical skills and the ability to translate numbers into business insights.

  • Structured, detail-oriented, and highly reliable — comfortable working independently in a scaling organization.

  • Excellent communication skills in English.

Nice to Have

  • Experience in venture-backed or international SaaS companies.

  • Familiarity with subscription revenue accounting (ARR, deferred revenue, usage-based models).

  • Experience implementing financial systems or ERP tools.
