Tetra Digital Group

Toronto

Who We Are Tetra Digital Group is Canada's leading institutional digital asset infrastructure provider. As Canada's first and only regulated digital asset custodian, we've built the institutional foundation the market demands. We're backed by Urbana Corporation, National Bank, ATB Financial, Wealthsimple, Purpose Unlimited, Shakepay, Shopify, and Coinbase Ventures - some of the most consequential names in Canadian finance and fintech.

Tetra

Trust, our regulated custody arm and CADD Digital, Canada's first Canadian dollar-backed stablecoin issued by a regulated financial institution. Canada clears roughly $424 billion every business day, and much of the retail payment infrastructure underneath it was designed in the 1980s. Batch windows.

We're building rails that settle continuously, programmatically, and under regulatory oversight. This is the senior finance seat at Tetra, and it's genuinely hands-on. You'll own accounting, FP&A;, treasury, tax, audit, and regulatory reporting across all three businesses, and you'll be the CEO and board's partner on capital strategy, partnerships, M&A;, and the next raise.

You'll work with a licensed trust company and a Canadian stablecoin company. You'll be building the finance function for a business model that’s being defined in real time. You'll report to our [CEO], work directly with senior leaders of the firm, the board and its audit committee, and partner closely with our compliance, legal, engineering, and partnerships leads.

Own capital strategy across equity, debt, and strategic investment. Lead fundraising alongside the CEO, structure partnerships, M&A;, and financing deals from first model to close, and manage the cap table and investor reporting for a shareholder base that includes some of Canada's biggest banks and fintechs. The data room is ready before anyone asks for it.

Be the key financial advisor to the CEO, executive team, and board on planning, controls, budgeting and audit committee materials. Accounting and reporting under IFRS. That includes consolidated reporting across Tetra's entities, crypto-asset accounting and fair value measurement, accounting for CADD in circulation and the reserves behind it, revenue recognition for custody and issuance fees,



and intercompany agreements and transfer pricing.

With operations, compliance, and risk, you'll shape the reserve investment policy: what we hold, where, at what duration, and with what liquidity buffer for weekend and holiday redemptions. Treasury and liquidity. Account for corporate cash, runway, and liquidity across CAD, USD, and the digital assets among financial partners, counterparties, clients, issuers and holders.

Regulatory capital and filings. Trust company capital and liquidity requirements, regulatory financial reporting and FINTRAC, and readiness for evolving regulations. You will own audit readiness and support SOC 1 and SOC 2 Type II work and reserve attestations.

Controls. Design internal controls built for a regulated crypto business and a Canadian trust company, including, but not limited to, segregation of duties, maker-checker on payments and wallet movements. Tax, done right the first time.

Corporate income tax, GST/HST on digital asset and payment services, SR&ED;, transfer pricing, and the current crypto-asset information reporting arriving under the Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework (CARF). Planning and Analysis. Pricing, partner economics, and unit economics to propel our growth.

Finance systems, automated. An ERP we won't outgrow, a crypto sub-ledger, automated reconciliations, and AI-enabled reporting, and analytics. 10+ years of progressive finance leadership, ideally a blend of experience in both regulated industries and high-growth startups, fintech, and institutional financial services. ~ Accountability for a finance function whose numbers were audited and regulated. ~ A bachelor's degree in business administration, finance, or accounting, and a CPA or equivalent professional designation. ~ Advanced IFRS, regulatory financial reporting, internal controls, and audit readiness. ~ Equity and debt raises,



M&A; structuring and due diligence, negotiations, and cap table management across complex corporate entities. ~ Multi-currency treasury, liquidity management and forecasting, and counterparty, operational, and regulatory risk assessment experience. ~ Digital asset fluency. Digital-asset accounting and fair value, integrating crypto and fiat rails, and how a stablecoin's reserves, supply, and redemptions show up in the financial statements. ~ Interac, Lynx, EFT, and the Real-Time Rail, plus emerging standards like ISO 20022 and the Travel Rule. ~ Design thinking to build and improve billing systems, crypto sub-ledgers, and processes. ~ You align finance strategy with where the business is going, and you can see how the finance function needs to scale before it breaks. ~ Digital asset experience matters here, but it doesn’t have to come from a crypto company.
