The company grew 8x last year and raised $50M in funding for its Series B in August 2025. We’re looking for a high-judgment, analytically rigorous operator to join the Finance team in a GTM Strategic Finance role, reporting to the VP of Finance.
In this role, you will help shape how we grow by owning key planning processes, improving the quality of our forecasts, and turning data into clear recommendations for resource allocation, investment decisions, and operating execution.

- Own the corporate forecast model and facilitate collection of key inputs from stakeholders.
- Own analysis of key business drivers across the deployment, product, R&D, and corporate functions, and translate findings into actionable recommendations.
- Partner cross-functionally on strategic initiatives such as margin analysis, technology vendor forecasting, and hiring pipeline performance.
- Prepare clear, high-quality materials for executive and board discussions, distilling complex data into concise narratives and decision points.
- Help improve the systems, processes, and operating cadences that allow Finance to scale effectively with the business.
What You’ll Bring
- 2-4+ years of experience in Strategic Finance, FP&A, Investment Banking, Management Consulting, or a related analytical role.
- Experience working in a high-growth B2B SaaS or technology environment.
- Strong financial modeling skills and a structured, first-principles approach to problem solving.
- Fluency in core SaaS metrics, including ARR, gross margin, magic number, and burn/runway.
- Experience partnering with cross-functional leaders and influencing decisions through data, judgment, and strong communication.
- Comfort working in ambiguity and a high-ownership environment where priorities evolve quickly.
