DI, a stand-alone operating company of Roper Technologies, is the market leader in automating laboratory instrument workflows to improve productivity and quality. DI\'s headquarters are in Colchester, Vermont with additional offices in Brazil, Belgium, and Hong Kong. The majority of the company\'s employees work remotely. DI is at an exciting inflection point - scaling as it transforms from a reseller model to a direct go-to-market model in the United States, its largest market, while modernizing its technology stack as a cloud-first, AI-forward company. Roper Technologies is a constituent of the S&P 500 and Fortune 1000 with a proven, long-term track record of compounding cash flow and shareholder value. Roper operates market-leading businesses that design and develop vertical software and technology-enabled products for defensible niche markets (NASDAQ: ROP). Role Overview Data Innovations is seeking an accomplished Chief Financial Officer to serve as a strategic thought partner to the CEO and a driving force behind the company\'s financial performance and long-term growth. This is first and foremost a finance leadership role - requiring deep expertise across financial strategy, FP&A, controls, contracting, and international operations in a SaaS environment. In addition to financial leadership, this CFO will bring operational breadth, with oversight of the Program Management Office (PMO) and Quality & Regulatory Affairs. This expanded scope reflects DI\'s evolution and the need for a senior leader who can connect financial rigor with cross-functional operational excellence.

Ensure compliance with all applicable financial regulations across DI\'s international operations (US, Brazil, Belgium, Hong Kong). Partner with Roper Technologies on M&A evaluation, due diligence, and integration - bringing disciplined financial analysis to inorganic growth opportunities. Leverage AI and data analytics to drive greater speed, rigor, and efficiency in financial planning, reporting, and decision support. Additional Functional Oversight: The CFO will also provide executive oversight for the following functions. While these areas are important to DI\'s operations, they are secondary to the core financial leadership mandate of this role. Program Management Office (PMO): Ensure strategic initiatives are structured, prioritized, and executed with rigor - maintaining clear accountability and alignment with business objectives. Establish measurement frameworks and resource allocation discipline in partnership with the executive team. Quality & Regulatory Affairs (QARA): Provide executive accountability for DI\'s global Quality Management System and Regulatory compliance programs across all markets.

Expanded operational scope experience is a plus.

Proven track record driving financial growth and scaling a SaaS business; experience navigating a company through transformation is a strong plus. Exceptional team leadership skills - proven ability to inspire, develop, and retain high-performing teams, and to champion a culture of learning and people development across the organization. Experience leading or overseeing operational functions beyond Finance (e.g., PMO, Quality & Regulatory) or demonstrated appetite and capability to step into broader operational accountability.
