A bit about us:

Our client is a laboratory automation company based in Colorado Springs. They recently merged with their sister company into one brand, so there’s a lot of energy around bringing the two legacies together.
They build open, plug-and-play hardware for labs, so that automation is easier to integrate and works with other vendors’ equipment. They have three main product lines:

• Collaborative robots
• Storage and handling
• Consumable washing

They serve OEMs, integrators, life science labs, and distributors, and they recently announced a partnership for integration purposes

Why join us?

Our client is a newly merged lab automation company, and its Controller will own finance across three entities and lead the move from three legacy ERPs to a single NetSuite environment. It’s a hands-on, fully remote role with a direct partnership with the CFO, where you’ll build the processes and use AI and automation to modernize the close. If you want real ownership and a standout chapter on your resume, this is a rare chance to shape the finance function at a company that helps scientists work faster.
