Summary

CloudNC is a Series B-stage autonomous manufacturing scale-up looking for a Chief Financial Officer to drive the strategy and implementation of the finance agenda forward.

About the company

More than £100B worth of components are produced using CNC Machines every year, but today the process is slow, costly and heavily reliant on inefficient human processes. We are developing technology that fully automates CNC manufacturing, hugely reducing the cost of parts while boosting quality and speed of delivery. 

We’ve assembled a team of 80 and raised £30M to date from world-leading investors including Atomico, the US and UK governments, and industry titan angel investors. 

Combining technology and manufacturing; we’re building the world’s most intelligent manufacturing software.
