Our Mission is to help people win their battle with severe pain.

The Opportunity

BioWave is seeking a Senior Director of Finance to become the company's senior Finance leader and strategic financial partner to the CEO.

This is the #1 Finance position at BioWave. The Senior Director will lead Finance through an experienced Assistant Controller who manages day-to-day Finance and Accounting operations, allowing this role to focus on financial leadership, enterprise performance, major transformation initiatives, and strategic decision-making.

The role combines strong financial and accounting rigor with a much broader mandate: driving profitability, allocating capital, leading ERP transformation, managing key external financial relationships, and leading Finance preparation for potential investment or strategic transaction activity.

We are looking for someone who has progressed beyond traditional Finance and has demonstrated the ability to influence and lead across the broader business. The Senior Director will operate as BioWave's de facto CFO, with a meaningful opportunity to progress to Chief Financial Officer and assume broader enterprise responsibility as BioWave continues to scale.

What You Will Own

Finance Leadership & Financial Integrity

• Lead the Finance function and serve as principal financial advisor to the CEO and management team.
• Develop and lead the Assistant Controller and Finance organization.
• Maintain overall accountability for financial reporting, controls, balance sheet integrity, cash flow, and financial performance.
• Serve as the senior quality-control layer for Finance, ensuring financial information reaches the CEO accurate, complete, and decision-ready.
• Build the processes, controls, and Finance capabilities required to support BioWave's continued growth.

Strategic Finance, Profitability & Capital Allocation

• Translate financial and operating performance into clear recommendations for the CEO and management team.
• Challenge forecasts, business assumptions, spending, and investments and provide a forward-looking view of financial risks and opportunities.
• Lead initiatives to improve EBITDA, gross margin, operating leverage, productivity, and cash generation.
• Establish financial and ROI discipline around significant investments in Commercial, Product, Clinical, Operations, technology, and other growth initiatives.
• Help determine where BioWave should invest, reduce investment, or reallocate resources to maximize growth and enterprise value.

ERP & Enterprise Transformation

• Serve as executive owner of BioWave's transition to a scalable ERP platform.
• Lead ERP selection, implementation, governance, and integration across Finance, Operations, inventory, Salesforce, and other business systems.
• Improve business processes, automation, reporting, data integrity, and organizational scalability.
• Provide financial and business leadership on major cross-functional transformation initiatives.

Board, Banking & External Leadership

• Own BioWave's key external financial relationships, including banks, lenders, auditors, tax advisors, and other financial partners.
• Lead the financial components of Board reporting and present financial performance, outlook, risks, and recommendations.
• Represent BioWave credibly with sophisticated external financial stakeholders.
• Serve as the Finance lead for potential investment, financing, M&A, or strategic transaction activity.
• Work directly with the CEO, Board, investment bankers, attorneys, accountants, investors, and potential acquirers.
• Lead financial diligence, quality-of-earnings preparation, financial data-room activities, and transaction-related analysis.
• Ensure BioWave's historical performance, forecasts, profitability, growth investments, and financial outlook can be clearly explained and defended.
• Maintain the company at a continuous state of financial and transaction readiness.

What We Are Looking For

We are looking for a Finance executive with CFO potential, not simply a traditional Controller or FP&A leader.

The strongest candidates will bring:

• A strong Finance and accounting foundation with the technical depth to ensure financial integrity.
• 12+ years of progressive Finance and business leadership experience.
• Demonstrated leadership beyond traditional Finance, ideally with meaningful responsibility across Operations, systems, supply chain, IT, or other enterprise functions.
• Significant ERP, systems, or business-transformation experience.
• Demonstrated success improving profitability, margins, costs, productivity, or operating performance.
• Experience with M&A, diligence, capital raising, investors, investment bankers, or strategic transactions.
• Strong executive presence and experience interacting with CEOs, Boards, banks, investors, and other external stakeholders.
• Experience leading and developing strong teams and operating effectively through other leaders.
• A hands-on, entrepreneurial approach suited to a rapidly growing company.

CPA strongly preferred.

Medical device, healthcare, manufacturing, PE-backed, or other inventory-intensive business experience is particularly attractive.

CFO Pathway

The Senior Director of Finance will be BioWave's senior Finance leader from day one.

The role is intended to provide a pathway to Chief Financial Officer based on demonstrated financial leadership, successful execution of major enterprise initiatives, measurable impact on profitability and business performance, credibility with the Board and external stakeholders, and the ability to successfully lead responsibilities beyond Finance.

For the right person, this is an opportunity to move beyond being a strong Finance executive and become a broader enterprise leader as BioWave enters its next stage of growth.

• Starting compensation $200,000 - $250,000
• 401K- discretionary 2.5% employer match
• Basic/Voluntary Term Life Insurance
