About the Company

Aydus is an AI-driven performance marketing company built for the attention economy. We work with global brands to win mindshare at population scale, combining sharp human creative talent with AI agents that let a small team operate far beyond its size. In our first year we have driven billions of views and partnered with some of the most valuable consumer and technology brands in the world. The team is small by design and moves fast, and we build for the long term rather than the next flip.

About the Role

We do not have a finance function yet. Revenue arrives in USD, most of our creator payments go out in USD, and everything in between is currently held together by the founders and an external CA firm. This role exists to change that. You will bring day-to-day finance in-house and build the systems that let the business run without the founders in the weeds. This is a build role, not a maintenance one. The processes you will run are the processes you will design.

Logistics

- Employment type: Full-time
- Location: Bengaluru, India, on-site
- Department: Finance and Administration
- Working pattern: Six-day work week for the coming months, shifting to five after
- Experience: CA freshers post-articleship, or one to three years from other backgrounds

Responsibilities

- Own the full USD-INR cycle end to end: inbound remittances, documentation, outbound creator payments, and cutting forex conversion losses at every step.
- Run internal payroll and creator payouts on a fixed cadence, calculated, checked, and on time, across a large base of US-based creators and the internal team.
- Build a management information system that reflects how the business actually operates, and reconcile it against the books of accounts and bank cash flows.




- Manage our external CA and CS partners: review their work, catch errors, and keep GST, TDS, FEMA, and statutory filings on track.
- Track invoices raised against receivables collected, and flag collection risk early.
- Hunt down cost leaks such as bank commissions, idle cash, and avoidable consultant spend, and propose better structures with clear trade-offs.
- Write finance and admin SOPs from scratch where none exist, and rebuild the ones that no longer hold.
- Own finance and administration operations end to end, escalating only what genuinely needs a founder decision.

Qualifications

- CA, CPA, or ACCA, completed or actively tracking toward it. CA freshers post-articleship are welcome; other backgrounds should bring roughly one to three years of relevant experience.

Required Skills

- Command of accounting fundamentals and what the numbers actually mean for a business, not just how they are calculated.
- Practical understanding of GST, TDS, and cross-border payment documentation.
- The ability to define a problem and its constraints fully before reaching for a solution.
- Explicit, fluent English. You will deal directly with US-based creators, vendors, and partners.
- Comfort building a process from scratch in an environment that is still being figured out.

Preferred Skills

- Exposure to cross-border remittances, treasury, or forex cost optimisation.
- Experience in a high-growth startup, or in an execution-heavy advisory or transaction-services team.
- Hands-on experience preparing an MIS and reconciling it with the books.
- Familiarity with payroll and creator or vendor payout platforms.

Most finance roles hand you a system to maintain. This one hands you a blank page and the authority to fill it.
