Minerva builds AI for marketing leaders. We work together with marketers to automate and accelerate their workflows with AI agents. Our agents augment the end-to-end workflow of the marketer by automating analysis, campaign planning, activation, measurement and reporting.

Customers like the NBA, Ramp, Wander, Hard Rock Stadium Group and Luxury Presence use Minerva to develop a better understanding of their customers and introduce AI specifically built to understand the customer into their commercial organizations. Our campaigns outperform other tools because we built the entire stack: from identity to enrichment to data integration as well as agents to action and report on the analysis.

We've raised $20M from The General Partnership, 8VC, Lingotto, NBA Investments, Topology Ventures, Future Positive, Background Capital and many others. Our team brings together operators and investors from Citadel, Dentsu, Bridgewater, Meta Superintelligence, Growthloop, Amazon and Lazard, alongside engineers and researchers from Berkeley, MIT, Stanford and Cambridge.

ABOUT THE ROLE

You’re Minerva’s first strategic finance hire. You have maximum exposure to the key business bottlenecks that the executive team grapples with on a day to day basis. Ideally you’re able to identify and take the first pass on solving many of these problems.

You sit within the operations org and work with the CEO, Chief-of-Staff, VP of Ops and broader leadership team to prioritize analyses. You prepare models that help guide capital allocation and real resource allocation.

This is a generalist role with broad scope - spanning planning, operations, go-to-market, pricing, board and investor reporting and special projects.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

- Own the core financial models that guide capital allocation and resource planning.

- Design incentive systems that improve employee performance, retention and satisfaction.

- Design commercial policies (pricing, packaging, contract terms) that deeply align our incentives with our customers while building a sound financial foundation across products.

- Optimize A/P and A/R policies with Accounting / RevOps.

- Partner with CoS to own all board, investor, and internal reporting materials, turning complex data into clear narratives that drive decisions.

- Work with the CEO & CoS to develop operating KPIs and reporting systems.

- Build business cases for strategic decisions including deal structuring, investments, hiring plans, and product launches.

IDEAL QUALIFICATIONS

- Extreme agency, candor and rigor

- 4-7+ years of experience in strategic finance, investment banking, private equity, growth equity, or a similar high-rigor analytical role

- Corporate development exposure is a plus but is not required.

- Strong financial modeling skills and the ability to build complex operating models from scratch, including experience with unit economics and cost structure analysis

- Comfort with ambiguity and a bias toward ownership

- Willingness to match or outpace the hours and intensity of the leadership team

- More likely to answer a question by finding the person who has already solved the problem than deriving an answer from first principles

- Willingness to have an opinion and share it

- Enthusiasm for AI and Minerva’s mission

COMPENSATION

Base salary: $175,000–$300,000, depending on seniority. Significant equity exposure.
