Corporate Controller

Seattle, WA (hybrid)

Who We Are:

Proprio advances surgery with its proprietary platform that combines artificial intelligence, computer vision, and augmented reality. Our flagship product, the Paradigm system, is an advanced surgical navigation system providing vital information that integrates pre-operative imaging and planning with intraoperative performance data. This unique longitudinal dataset offers significant value to the entire surgical ecosystem.

At Proprio, you’ll be part of a pioneering medical device company that is ambitiously tackling unsolved problems in surgery.  Because there’s no predefined roadmap for success, we value team members who have “growth-company DNA” and are adaptable, open to change and resilient as we learn, improve and our plans evolve.  In our small, high-performing team, every person counts – we rely on each other to own our work from start to finish.  Collaboration is essential: our strength lies in bringing together diverse perspectives to push boundaries and deliver something greater than any one of us could alone.  With an interdisciplinary team, we’re always learning from one another, and feedback is how we grow and close knowledge gaps.  We dream big, but we execute with focus – prioritizing well and making thoughtful, data-driven decisions to deliver meaningful impact without losing sight of the “wow” factor.

What We Are Looking For:
At Proprio, we know high standards must be maintained to deliver impact at scale, and we want to work with people that embody our core values and foundational competencies:

Be Bold: You know that your work matters - patients’ lives are in our metaphorical hands - and that gives you the energy to lean in and give your all, even when it gets hard or that means pushing beyond conventional wisdom and known possibilities, at the risk of failure.

Evolve Relentlessly: You are an entrepreneur with a growth mindset who sees opportunity everywhere. To you, the word NO simply means Next Option. You are comfortable with ambiguity and are not only change tolerating but change seeking. You are comfortable living in the grey, see whitespace everywhere and can see around corners. You welcome friction and mistakes as compost for your growth and greet adversity as something to further develop your resilience. You are always re-thinking the status quo, including within yourself and your own intellectual, emotional and social development.

Sweat the Right Details: You know that details matter in our business and at our stage of growth. You understand that some details always matter because we have patients’ lives in our hands and are in a highly regulated, highly competitive industry.

Take Ownership: You are accountable, take ownership and win as a team. You are a self-starter and self-reliant but know that you are not an island of one. You take your work to the finish line, including whenever it means helping our colleagues over the finish line with you. Secure enough yourself and the culture of teamwork to know that you can ask for help, no matter the situation. You see the problem or issue as your own and take responsibility for the quality of outcomes, not just effort.

That is why we are looking for a smart, driven Corporate Controller to strategically develop financial processes, scale growth, and guide the company toward a liquidity event, potentially an IPO.

  • Proven leadership skills and experience in managing a finance team in a dynamic, early-stage environment, including designing, and improving processes and controls.
  • Exceptional analytical and problem-solving abilities.
  • Demonstrated ability managing a wide variety of complex tasks and projects simultaneously while meeting multiple deadlines.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, or a related field. MBA or CPA preferred.
  • Deep knowledge of US GAAP, internal control frameworks and financial compliance; nice to have: public accounting experience, preparing a company for IPO and/or financial leadership in a public company.
  • Knowledge of capital sales, software-as-a-service, and revenue recognition principles.
  • Strong technology skills to learn new tools quickly with prior experience in NetSuite or similar ERP, AP automation tools, and Carta or similar stock admin tools.

Proprio offers its employees a generous range of compensation and benefits:

High Earning Potential: Salary Range: $151,000-$197,000: Our compensation philosophy is to bring people into new roles in the range of the mid-point of that role. Factors considered for pay include the level of skill, experience, training, external market factors, and internal equity.
