About Ritual
Ritual is building a sovereign, execution layer for AI, with our private testnet already live and running. The Ritual chain is the first blockchain custom-built to support AI-native operations, designed from the ground up to enable a new class of applications at the intersection of crypto and AI.

- Manage company treasury, including crypto and fiat holdings, stablecoin liquidity, and vendor payments.
- Monitor and report financial position, cash runway, and budget-to-actual performance for management and investors.
- Own financial systems and process design, implementing efficient tools for expense tracking, payments, and internal reporting.
- Coordinate financial reporting cycles (monthly/quarterly/annual close) with external partners to ensure timely and accurate statements.
- Support token operations, including warrant tracking, token vesting, treasury management, and coordination with token administration platforms.
- Collaborate with leadership on budgeting, forecasting, and scenario planning for both fiat and crypto assets.
- Ensure compliance and risk management across all financial operations, including custody, KYC/AML practices, and digital asset handling.
- Prepare investor and board materials, summarizing key financial metrics, burn, and strategic initiatives.
- Partner with legal and finance teams to support fundraising, audits, and due diligence processes.

- Proven ability to design and implement accounting processes in a startup setting.
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills; able to explain complex financial topics clearly.
- Highly organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable working independently.
