Leverage Modern Tech & AI: Utilize Pigment as our core FP&A planning platform and Claude AI to accelerate data analysis, reporting, and scenario modeling to automate finance workflows.
Execute Business Case & Strategic Modeling: Perform ad-hoc business case evaluations and scenario analyses to guide strategic technology initiatives and investment decisions.
Support Financial Operations: Partner with Accounting during the month-end close process to complete variance analysis and assist with R&D financial reporting.
In addition to working with amazing colleagues who exemplify our ‘team over self’ core value, you will also have the opportunity to work directly across different management levels to solve complex financial challenges and shape how we scale a world-class revenue platform. You will have an opportunity to make a difference.

We are seeking a self-motivated, tech-savvy, and highly analytical problem solver who is passionate about making an impact. You are an independent thinker with an eye for process improvement, comfortable navigating fast-paced environments, and eager to leverage cutting-edge tools to optimize financial strategy for software engineering teams. If you’re looking for an opportunity to learn more, do more, and become more, then becoming a Financial Analyst is the career path for you!
THE TEAM:
Our Finance team consists of results-oriented SaaS professionals with a strong analytical mindset and a passion for strategic problem solving. The team members share a few common traits: they are collaborative, highly curious, detail-oriented, and focused on helping the company scale cleanly.
