About

I build finance and operating systems at companies of varying sizes. Last decade+ has been some combination of private equity, venture, fintech, and AI -- always at the intersection of finance, data, and technology. I've built entire finance and ops functions from zero at venture-backed companies. Scaled financial infrastructure during hypergrowth. Managed strategy and data across billions in private investments. Treated finance like a product, with users, a roadmap, and KPIs. The thread across all of it: I keep ending up where the systems are broken and I keep building the thing that fixes them. Right now that means AI. I've been building infrastructure that lets a single operator run what used to take a department and massive budget -- connecting finance, sales intelligence, revenue operations, GTM, and product into one layer that actually thinks for itself. The bet is simple: the best operators won't be the ones who manage the biggest teams. They'll be the ones who build the best systems. And right now, the tools to do that are finally here. Writing about what that looks like in practice. Building it every day. DMs always open. https://x.com/SteveHu715/
