You’ll learn from experienced model builders and architects, contribute to end-to-end delivery, and help create scalable solutions that support close, budgeting, and forecasting processes.

Job responsibilities

• Support end-to-end model delivery: translate user stories into modules, lists, line items, and UX pages, and help configure actions, imports/exports, and basic automations.
• Build high-quality models: follow platform best practices for sparsity, dimensionality, and performance; contribute to versioning, testing, and documentation.
• Create user-centric experiences: help design intuitive UX pages, conduct demos, capture feedback, and iterate to improve usability and adoption.
• Partner across teams: collaborate with P&A stakeholders, data product teams, technology, and risk/compliance partners to ensure accurate, controlled data flows.
• Assist with integrations: set up and troubleshoot data imports, mappings, and basic transformation logic; escalate complex integration issues to senior team members.
• Contribute to Agile delivery: participate in backlog grooming, write/clarify user stories and acceptance criteria, and deliver increments in sprints.
• Uphold controls and quality: adhere to firmwide SDLC, access controls, peer reviews, and change management processes; maintain clear model and process documentation.
• Continuous learning: actively pursue platform certifications, learn adjacent tools and data concepts, and contribute ideas that improve model reliability and team efficiency.

Required qualifications, capabilities, and skills

• 0–2 years of experience building or maintaining Enterprise Performance Management systems such as Anaplan, Oracle Planning, Pigment, Workday Adaptive Planning, IBM Planning Analytics, or similar tools
• Basic proficiency with core Anaplan concepts (lists, modules, line items, hierarchies, formulas, time versions, UX pages, actions/imports) and an understanding of model performance fundamentals.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with attention to detail; ability to translate functional requirements into structured model designs with guidance.
• Clear written and verbal communication skills; ability to prepare simple demos and documentation using MS Office and present to peers and business partners.
• Team-oriented, proactive, and organized; comfortable working in a fast-paced, results-driven environment and within Agile teams (Scrum/Kanban).

Preferred qualifications, capabilities, and skills

• Exposure to the P&A function (close, budgets, forecasts) and familiarity with financial planning concepts.
• Experience with data and analytics tools (e.g., SQL, Python, Alteryx, Databricks) or ETL/scheduling tools; understanding of data quality and reconciliation basics.
• Experience with Anaplan integrations (APIs, connectors) at a foundational level, or willingness to learn.
• Anaplan Level 2 Model Builder certification; progress toward Level 3 is advantageous.

What you’ll gain

• Training and mentorship from experienced Model Builders and Solution Architects.
• Opportunities to own discrete model components and UX pages, deepen platform skills, and learn enterprise delivery practices.
• A culture grounded in innovation, learning, and continuous improvement—where user impact and strong controls both matter.

If you’re eager to build reliable, user-friendly Anaplan solutions and grow your skills in a collaborative, agile environment, we’d love to hear from you.
