## About this role.

### 🌀 The Company

Founded in 2022, [Filigran](https://jobicy.com/company/filigran.md) is a global cybersecurity company on a mission to empower defense teams to be proactive through open-source solutions that uncover threats and drive action.

Filigran stands out in the cybersecurity ecosystem through its open-source, AI-powered and threat-informed approach to Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM). Our eXtended Threat Management (XTM) platform brings together threat intelligence, exposure validation and cyber risk reduction, enabling organizations to better understand their threat landscape and take action.

At the heart of Filigran is our open-source approach. Our vision is to unite defenders into a global community to make security more open, resilient and collaborative.

As Filigran continues to scale globally, we are building the organization, infrastructure and capabilities needed for our next stage of growth. How we scale matters just as much as how fast we scale: our CORE values: Cohesion, Openness, Responsibility and Equity shape how we work together, make decisions and build for the future.

### 🎯 The Role

As Head of Financial Controller, you will own the full accounting function across Filigran’s entities, including revenue recognition, consolidation, monthly and year-end close, and internal controls. You will act as the finance function’s technical backbone building the infrastructure, controls, and processes needed to support a fast-scaling, multi-entity, international organization.

You will report directly to the VP of Finance. The team is small so this role demands both strategic ownership and significant hands-on execution.

### 🔎 Preferred Experience

*

*

*

Proven ability to build processes and internal controls from scratch in a fast-growing or scaling environment

*

Comfortable operating with high autonomy and ambiguity; adapts quickly to change

*

Prior people management experience

Sample interview questionsHow would you improve a monthly close process for a fast-growing multi-entity company?I would first map the current close calendar, ownership, dependencies, reconciliations, and recurring bottlenecks. I would then standardize close checklists, establish materiality thresholds and review controls, automate repeatable reconciliations, and track close metrics to reduce cycle time without compromising accuracy.

Describe your approach to revenue recognition in a multi-entity environment.

I begin by documenting revenue streams, contractual performance obligations, billing practices, and applicable accounting policies. I implement clear review controls over contract changes, deferred revenue, cut-off, and intercompany impacts, while ensuring reconciliations and audit-ready documentation are completed every period.

How do you assess and implement internal controls from scratch?

I perform a risk-based gap assessment across key processes such as order-to-cash, procure-to-pay, payroll, treasury, and financial close. I prioritize controls that address material risks, assign clear owners and evidence requirements, document procedures, test operating effectiveness, and refine the framework as the organization scales.

How would you manage a challenging relationship with an external accounting firm or audit team?

I would establish clear service expectations, deliverable timelines, escalation paths, and quality standards at the outset. Through regular status reviews, documented issue logs, and timely provision of evidence, I would maintain accountability while keeping the relationship constructive and focused on accurate outcomes.

How do you lead a small accounting team while remaining hands-on?

I set clear responsibilities, operating rhythms, quality expectations, and development goals for each team member. I stay close to high-risk and complex work, use reviews as coaching opportunities, and progressively delegate repeatable ownership so the team can scale while maintaining strong controls.
