Figma CFO Praveer Melwani says his corp dev team now tests a target's moat by trying to vibe code its product, then runs the M&A memo past AI versions of Figma's leaders: "I think our team's gotten really damn good at some of this. You can get through some of the, you know, 'Is this a real thing? Is it not? How difficult is it or not?' There's obviously nuances to a whole bunch of these ideas, but it gives you like a solid intuition there." "More often than not, there are themes, there are similar questions, there are ways that we all as leaders tend to have a way of looking at problems. And what's been interesting is [the corp dev team has] gone and created unique [AI] personalities for each of us as leaders... that they can go and run their investment memos by." "They'll sit there kind of going back and forth and saying, 'Okay, this is what Praveer would say, and this is what [CEO] Dylan would say, and this is what Sean would say,' our CRO... It reduces the cycle time that we're all sitting together on." @figma @seema_amble @IvanoMakSF Your browser does not support the video tag. 🔗 View on Twitter a16z @a16z Figma CFO Praveer Melwani used to spend his days writing hundreds of lines of SQL just to get one set of numbers everyone trusted. Now his finance team builds its own AI tools to do that work. He sees the CFO's job shifting from traffic cop to business enabler, as long as the people doing the building still own their thinking. Praveer joins a16z's Seema Amble and Ivan Makarov, authors of "You Need a New CFO," to discuss the growth-stage finance team that built 40 to 50 agents in a month or two, what breaks when every rep vibe codes their own dashboard, and how finance went from sitting out hackathons to winning them. 0:00 From traffic cop to business enabler 8:48 Hire people who understand the model 12:20 Vibe coding a target to test moats 13:15 An AI Dylan Field reviews the memos 18:01 Let AI make the messy data calls 20:00 Unused agents still build the habit 20:46 The CIO's new job: scale what works 22:36 The rise of the finance engineer 26:24 Why the board trusts his numbers 30:25 AI tools as a recruiting perk 40:35 Why Excel is his "love language" 44:20 What to look for in your next CFO YouTube: youtu.be/9iAQdKxyiQc @figma @seema_amble @IvanoMakSF Your browser does not support the video tag. 🔗 View on Twitter 🔗 View Quoted Tweet 💬 4 🔄 0 ❤️ 8 👀 4679 📊 3 ⚡
