About Cold Crypt

Cold Crypt is building what we believe is the future of digital asset security.

We are developing a U.S.-made, military-grade hybrid cryptocurrency wallet that seamlessly operates in both hot and true cold-storage modes while incorporating AI-powered security and transaction analysis.

Our MVP is currently under development, trademarks have been filed, and we are actively raising capital while preparing for institutional investment.

We're looking for a Founding CFO who wants to help build something extraordinary.

About the Role

This is not a traditional CFO position.

We're looking for an experienced finance executive who understands both traditional venture finance and the crypto ecosystem.

The ideal candidate has experience working with venture capital and private equity firms, understands tokenomics at a deep level, and can help position the company for institutional investment and long-term growth.

You will become a key member of our executive leadership team and play a major role in fundraising, financial strategy, investor relations, and token economics.

Responsibilities

Lead all corporate financial strategy
Review investor-ready financial models
Prepare the company for institutional due diligence
Help manage relationships with VC and Private Equity firms
Assist in raising capital and closing investors
Design and oversee tokenomics and token supply strategy
Develop treasury management strategy
Work with legal counsel regarding securities and token compliance
Build financial forecasting, budgeting, and reporting systems
Participate in executive leadership and strategic planning

Required Qualifications

Previous CFO, VP of Finance, or senior finance leadership experience
Experience working with venture capital and/or private equity funding
Strong understanding of startup finance
Deep knowledge of cryptocurrency markets
Demonstrated experience designing or managing tokenomics
Understanding of token supply models, vesting schedules, emissions, treasury allocation, staking, and incentive structures
Experience preparing companies for Series A fundraising
Excellent communication and investor presentation skills

Preferred Qualifications

CPA, MBA, CFA, or equivalent experience
Experience with Web3 startups
Experience launching or advising crypto projects
Knowledge of SEC regulations surrounding digital assets
Experience with SAFEs, convertible notes, and equity financing
Experience working with institutional investors

Compensation

This is a Founding Executive position.

Compensation during the pre-Series A phase consists primarily of meaningful founder equity and executive stock ownership. Candidates should be financially able to commit to an equity-first compensation structure while helping build the company through its initial fundraising phase.

Upon the successful close of the Series A financing, this position transitions to a competitive executive compensation package, including:

Market-rate executive salary
Continued equity participation
Performance-based incentives
Full executive benefits (as applicable)

Who We're Looking For

We're looking for someone who believes in building something that matters.

Someone who wants to help build a category-defining company—not simply join one.

If you've helped companies raise institutional capital, understand crypto economics, and want to be part of building a next-generation digital asset security company, we'd love to hear from you.
