Finom is a European tech startup headquartered in Amsterdam, and we’re on a journey towards revolutionizing the financial landscape for entrepreneurs worldwide.

This significant investment follows a $105 million growth funding round from General Catalyst, a long-term backer since 2021 known for supporting companies like Airbnb, HubSpot, KAYAK, and Stripe.
Finom's platform goes beyond traditional banking, offering invoicing and a growing suite of features, including AI-enabled accounting, aiming to simplify financial management for entrepreneurs. We're actively expanding our reach across key EU markets like Germany, France, the Netherlands, Italy, and Spain.

We nurture innovation and an inspiring work environment where bold ideas thrive, prioritizing thorough research, swift implementation of solutions, and ensuring that every effort we make benefits our users, employees, partners, and our business as a whole.

You’ll own the end-to-end reliability and incident response framework, coordinate real-time communication, monitor both automated and manual dependencies, and drive a culture of prevention, transparency, and operational excellence.

- Integrate these into monitoring and RCA/postmortem analysis.
- Own and evolve Finom’s incident response framework (playbooks, detection mechanism, escalation paths, roles and on-duty resolution team, SLA/SLO, classification matrix and definitions).
- Act as Incident Commander during unplanned events: coordinate cross-functional response, assign roles, and maintain real-time timeline and impact assessment.
- Run readiness training and simulations quarterly/monthly/weekly across teams to keep readiness high.
- Lead all internal and external comms during incidents (Public and internal Statuspage, Intercom, Slack, CRM, Exec updates), including drafting customer-facing communication strategy (in case of isolated impacting number of customers).
- Serve as a liaison between CC, Ops, Product, Tech, Risk, and Product.
- Ensure timely and compliant communication with regulators (DNB, AFM, Data Protection authority etc.) in case it’s needed.
- Own audit-ready records of past incidents and resolutions.
- Coordinate incident classification matrix review with Risk/CyberSec/Risk teams.
- Support compliance with DORA, PSD2, and ISO27001 resilience standards (e.g., planning and coordination - regularly running stress scenarios according to Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Planning).
- Owner of the platform/tools used for the Incident Management process.
- Collaborate with Observability/Tech/Operations/Product/Risk teams to automate and continuously improve detection practices, status updates, communication, and report generation.
