The role involves building Harness' treasury function, managing cash, liquidity, banking relationships, and FX risk management, along with IPO readiness and cross-functional collaboration.
The summary above was generated by AI

Harness is the AI Software Delivery Platform company, led by technologist and entrepreneur Jyoti Bansal (founder of AppDynamics, acquired by Cisco for $3.7B). Harness has raised approximately $570M in funding and is valued at $5.5B, backed by leading investors including Goldman Sachs, Menlo Ventures, IVP, Unusual Ventures, Citi Ventures, and more. As AI accelerates code creation, the real bottleneck has shifted to everything after the code – testing, deployments, application security, reliability, compliance, and cost optimization. Harness brings AI and automation to this “outer loop,” helping teams ship software faster while maintaining security and governance throughout the entire software delivery lifecycle.

Powered by Harness AI and the Software Delivery Knowledge Graph, the Harness Platform applies deep context and intelligent automation across the software delivery lifecycle with governance and policy-driven controls embedded throughout the platform. 

Over the past year, Harness powered over 185M deployments, 82M builds, 18T flag evaluations, 8M security scans, 9.1B optimized tests, 3T protected API calls, and helped manage $2.8B in cloud spend — enabling customers like United Airlines, Morningstar, and Choice Hotels to accelerate releases by up to 75%, reduce cloud costs by up to 60%, and achieve 10x DevOps efficiency. 

With a global team across 26 offices and 27 countries, Harness is shaping the future of AI software delivery — and we’re looking for exceptional talent to help us move even faster.

Position Summary

This is Harness' inaugural in-house treasury hire. Reporting to the VP Corporate Controller, you will build the treasury function from the ground up — establishing cash management infrastructure, banking relationships, FX risk management frameworks, and liquidity reporting processes for a rapidly growing global company operating in multiple currencies and jurisdictions.

This is a unique opportunity for a treasury professional who thrives on building: you will design the policies, implement the tools, and create the reporting frameworks that will support Harness through its pre-IPO growth and eventual public market journey. The right candidate is operationally excellent, intellectually curious, and ready to bring institutional-quality treasury discipline to a high-growth technology company.

  • Manage short-term investment strategy for the company's cash balance in coordination with external advisors

Banking & Financial Institution Relationships

  • Serve as Harness' primary point of contact for all global banking relationships
  • Rationalize and optimize the banking structure; open accounts across new jurisdictions as the company grows

  • Partner with the Controller and Accounting on FX treatment under ASC 830

Treasury Policy, Controls & IPO Readiness

  • Author and maintain global treasury policies covering cash management, investments, and FX risk
  • Design and implement SOX-ready treasury controls and documentation
  • Support IPO treasury workstreams: balance sheet presentation, cash flow accuracy, and auditor diligence
  • Evaluate and implement a treasury management system (TMS) to scale operations efficiently

Cross-Functional Partnership

  • Partner with Payroll on timely, compliant funding across the US, India, Israel, and Argentina
  • Collaborate with Legal and Accounting on capitalization events, tender offers, and equity-related transactions
  • Support the Controller on treasury disclosures and audit inquiries; provide FP&A with cash flow forecasting inputs and capital allocation modelin
About you
  • 7–10 years of progressive treasury experience in technology and/or financial services; with hands-on global cash management, multi-currency operations, and banking relationship management

  • Working knowledge of FX risk management, hedging instruments, and ASC 815 hedge accounting; emerging market and ARS experience a significant advantage
