- Maintain rolling forecasts, provide variance commentary for material deviations, and lock forecasts on a monthly cadence. - Collaborate cross-functionally with recruiting, procurement, and department leaders on headcount and spend decisions. - Leverage AI tools to accelerate forecasting workflows, variance commentary, and ad-hoc analysis, setting the bar for AI-augmented FP&A on the team. What We're Looking For - 5+ years of FP&A or strategic finance experience, ideally in a high-growth SaaS/tech environment.
