Strategic Finance - R&D/G&A
“The most important figures that one needs for management are unknown or unknowable—but successful management must nevertheless take account of them.” — W. Edwards Deming
That tension is at the heart of G&A and R&D finance. How do you measure the value of a great legal team before you need them? How do you quantify the compounding returns of an engineering platform investment? How do you build a financial plan around organizations whose most important outputs resist clean quantification?
At Mercury, we’re modernizing banking* for startups and ambitious companies—and doing it with a product and engineering organization that moves fast. As we scale, we need a finance partner who can go deep with our G&A and R&D teams: someone who understands how headcount plans become roadmaps, how infrastructure costs relate to product bets, and how to bring financial rigor to organizations that don’t think in quarters.
You’ll be embedded with our Engineering, Product, Design, and G&A leadership, helping them plan, allocate, and make decisions with confidence.
The total rewards package at Mercury includes base salary, equity (stock options/RSUs), and benefits.
Our salary and equity ranges are highly competitive within the SaaS and fintech industry and are updated regularly using the most reliable compensation survey data for our industry. New hire offers are made based on a candidate’s experience, expertise, geographic location, and internal pay equity relative to peers.
Our target new hire base salary ranges for this role are the following:
