Fractional CFO for $5M–$40M ARR SaaS — build the finance infrastructure to raise your next round without hiring a full‑time CFO

I help VC-backed and bootstrapped SaaS founders replace ad‑hoc finance with a repeatable, defensible finance function that scales from $5M to $40M ARR and stands up to investor scrutiny. As a fractional CFO I focus on the things that move the needle: fundraising readiness, SaaS unit economics (CAC, LTV, payback, cohort retention), GTM finance that links capacity and pipeline to revenue outcomes, and clean, defensible financial models and board reporting. I bring 15+ years building finance at scale — including VP of Finance at Auctane (an $800M Thoma Bravo‑backed SaaS platform) and Senior Finance Manager at AWS supporting $17B in public‑sector revenue. MBA, UNC Kenan‑Flagler. If your finance function isn’t keeping pace with growth, let’s talk: coremetricadvisors.com
