VP Finance / Controller

Friends - I need your help to find a VP Finance / Controller.  I tried looking for this position back in Feb but we were just not ready as a company for this hire.  Below is the description.  If you have any leads I would appreciate it.  Have them email me at "financejobs at like.com".  This email will come directly to me so anyone you send will not get lost in "the shuffle."

Like.com (formerly Riya) is a visual search engine.  Like.com is the first search engine that lets you shop by appearance.  We look inside the photo at the color, shape, and texture of an item and use that information to find similar items.  The company has raised over $19MM in financing and has filed over 7 patents.
