Ruben has been a Financial Controller at Simaudio since 2020.
What’s your role?
It’s been almost five years since MOON opened its doors to me. I started as an accounting technician and was later offered the role of Financial Controller. I manage the company’s financial statements: revenues, expenses, compliance, and clear reporting.
My job is to explain numbers to people who usually talk about circuits!
Your favorite MOON product?
The MOON ACE. When I first joined, I didn’t know much about high-end audio, and it’s the perfect entry point into that world. Bianca Gagné, who had been here for 10 years, introduced me to it, and it was a revelation. She showed me what a truly premium experience feels like. It opened up a whole new mindset.
A memorable moment?
Overhauling our ERP system. It was a complex but exciting project. In a growing company, our tools must adapt to our human scale. And as we expand globally, our systems must meet the level of our ambitions.
What makes you proud?
Coming from Venezuela and being part of a Quebec company with a global reach is something I’m truly proud of. MOON gave me the chance to grow, to thrive professionally, while staying close to my passion for numbers. Working here with people from diverse backgrounds and a strong shared culture feels like a dream come true.
A favorite album?
Lo Mato by Willie Colón and Héctor Lavoe. It’s not from my generation, but my dad played it in the car on the way to school. I still listen to it today — at work, at the gym, or on the soccer field. It brings back memories and creates new ones every time.
