Strategic Finance Manager

Strategic Finance Manager

As a Strategic Finance Manager, you'll help build the core muscles of our capital allocation, forecasting, and planning processes. You'll work across the business — spanning GTM, compute, R&D, and corporate finance — building models and analyses that inform how we allocate resources, evaluate opportunities, and plan for growth. The work will vary depending on where you focus, but the common thread is connecting ground-level business activity to rigorous financial thinking.

Build financial models across a range of contexts — deals and partnerships, product and channel economics, cost structures, and investment decisions

Support the corporate financial model with bottoms-up inputs, and maintain that connection as the underlying business evolves

Partner cross-functionally — with sales, GTM, engineering, research, and finance leadership — to translate business activity into financial frameworks

Develop cost and investment models (compute, infrastructure, headcount, R&D) to inform resource planning and tradeoff decisions

Identify financial risks and opportunities early, and help structure decisions that balance growth with returns

Improve the templates, assumptions libraries, and processes used across the team

Strong financial modeling skills – build clean, auditable models from scratch

Experience with deal economics, revenue modeling, or commercial finance at a technology company

Comfort with cost-side modeling: you understand how compute, headcount, and infrastructure costs behave

Ability to work cross-functionally with sales, legal, and product without losing rigor

Detail-oriented and intellectually curious

Effective communicator; ability to explain model assumptions to non-finance stakeholders

Investment banking, consulting, or FP&A backgrounds
