Description

Qohash is reshaping enterprise data security. We’re building a next-generation data security platform (DSP) purpose-built for organizations operating at petabyte scale. Our architecture enables real-time visibility and control over sensitive data spread across cloud, on-premise, and endpoint environments - without moving the data.
We serve highly regulated industries where data protection, compliance, and digital sovereignty are non-negotiable. Our approach drives immediate, high-impact outcomes for security and compliance teams.
Unlike legacy solutions that rely on centralized scanning and opaque foreign components, Qohash delivers edge-centric intelligence, granular tracking of sensitive data elements, and a flat-rate pricing model built for clarity and scale. All software is developed, maintained in Canada.

POSITION OVERVIEW:

Qohash is hiring a Chief Financial Officer to lead our financial strategy and support the company through its next phase of growth and institutional financing.
You’ll report directly to the CEO and join the executive team as a key decision-maker. This role combines strategic financial leadership, investor readiness, and the mandate to build and scale an internal finance function.
Today, our core financial operations are currently outsourced to a professional finance services provider. We’re now insourcing the function, and the CFO will lead that transition. You’ll define what gets built in-house, what remains external, and how to structure the team and systems for scale.
This is a hands-on, high-impact role for a leader who thrives in high-growth SaaS environments and is ready to architect the financial engine of a fast-scaling company.
