Job description

At Coram AI, we’re reimagining video security for the modern world. Our cloud-native platform uses computer vision and AI to help businesses stay safe, make smarter decisions, and move faster; from real-time alerts to seamless clip sharing and multi-site visibility.

You’ll be joining an ambitious, fast-moving team that values clarity, craftsmanship, and impact. Every person here has a voice, ships meaningful work, and helps shape how AI can make the world safer and more connected.

You will own the model. That means the financial forecast of the business, the analysis that sits around it, and the reporting that tells the leadership team where we actually are against plan.

This is the FP&A half of the finance function. We are hiring a Controller separately to own accounting and close, so this role is not a catch-all finance seat. You get one clear half of the function and you own it.

What you'll own

• The company financial model and the forecast: building it, maintaining it, and defending it.

• Regular reporting on actuals versus plan, with early flags when something is drifting.

• The explanation behind the numbers. Why revenue moved, why spend landed where it did, what it means for the next two quarters.

• Cross-functional depth across sales, marketing, R&D and finance. You need to understand what each team is actually doing and how that shows up in the numbers.

• The analysis leadership uses to make decisions: headcount, spend, pricing, planning cycles.

What we're looking for

• 5–10 years of relevant experience. This is a hands-on owner role/

• SaaS operating experience. You have worked inside a SaaS business and understand how the model behaves.

• Real ownership of something that mattered. A model, a forecast, a P&L line, with a clear story about the impact it had on the business.

• You have seen scale. Tell us what stage the company was at when you joined and what stage it was at when you left.

• Strong business acumen and very high attention to detail.

• Fluency in your own work. You can walk through a complex model you built and talk credibly about forecast accuracy.

Bonus points

• Exposure to fundraising.

• Exposure to the go-to-market side of the business.

We're on a mission to transform a $50B+ legacy industry by bringing the power of cutting-edge multimodal LLMs and computer vision to real-world security and operations. From firearm detection to intelligent access control, our AI-native platform turns every camera and sensor into a smart system that enhances safety, efficiency, and awareness.

Founded by Ashesh Jain (ex-Lyft Level 5, PhD Cornell) and Peter Ondruska (ex-Lyft, PhD Oxford), Coram AI is backed by Ansa Capital, Battery Ventures, Mosaic, 8VC and Up Partners, have raised over $65M, and were named to the CB Insights AI 100 as one of the most promising AI companies in the world.
