Full Job Description
Your Impact:

As our FP&A Senior Analyst on R&D Finance, you'll partner closely with Product, Engineering, and Program Management leadership to bring analytical rigor and clear financial insight to the R&D portfolio. You'll own the financial model behind our pipeline, develop gross margin and pricing recommendations across our printers, consumables, and services, and support corporate Treasury operations to keep our global subsidiaries well-funded. It's a hands-on role with broad exposure across the company - ideal for someone who wants to gain a deep understanding of how products are designed, built, and brought to market.
What You'll Do:
  • Own the end-to-end financial model for the R&D pipeline, including project-level budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis across all active and planned programs.
  • Partner directly with Product, Engineering, and Program Management leaders to monitor performance-to-budget across hardware, software, and materials programs.
  • Build and maintain long-term revenue forecasts grounded in the unit economics and go-to-market assumptions for new products in the pipeline.
  • Analyze and forecast gross margin by product line - tracking BOM costs, manufacturing variances, and mix effects - and develop pricing recommendations for both new launches and existing SKUs.
  • Develop and maintain dashboards and reports (Looker, SQL) that provide R&D leadership with real-time visibility into spend, headcount, and program health.
  • Prepare monthly and quarterly R&D financial packages for the CFO and executive team, including commentary on key drivers and risks.
  • Support Treasury functions, including subsidiary funding, intercompany transactions, cash management, and FX exposure tracking across Formlabs' global entities.
  • Drive continuous improvement of FP&A processes, models, and systems (including NetSuite, Looker, and planning tools) to scale with the business.
About You:
  • 4-7 years of progressive FP&A, corporate finance, or strategic finance experience; prior roles as an FP&A Analyst, Senior Analyst, or Finance Business Partner preferred.
  • Demonstrated experience in a hardware-oriented company (e.g., 3D printing, robotics, semiconductors, consumer electronics, industrial equipment, medical devices), with a working understanding of physical product economics: BOM, COGS, tooling, and NPI cycles.
  • Hands-on experience with gross margin analysis, cost modeling, or pricing strategy - ideally for a multi-product hardware business with both capital equipment and recurring consumables/services revenue.
  • Strong technical proficiency with ERP systems (NetSuite strongly preferred), SQL, and BI/visualization tools (Looker, Tableau, or similar).
  • Strong communicator who can translate complex financial data into clear narratives for non-finance stakeholders.
  • High ownership mentality - comfortable operating with ambiguity and proactively identifying problems before being asked.
  • Detail-oriented with strong modeling discipline, but able to zoom out and think strategically about the big picture.
  • Collaborative and low-ego; thrives in cross-functional settings with engineering and product teams.
Bonus Skills:
  • Experience with Treasury or corporate finance functions, including cash management, intercompany funding, and FX.
  • Background in investment banking, management consulting, or Big 4 transaction advisory.
  • Intellectual curiosity about how products are designed, built, and brought to market - tinkerers and makers welcome.
  • Experience working in a fast-paced, scaling environment where processes are still being built and refined.
Our Benefits & Perks:
  • Robust equity program to build future wealth through RSUs
  • Comprehensive healthcare coverage (Medical, Dental, Vision)
  • 401(k) matching and access to financial advisors
  • Generous paid Parental Leave (up to 16 weeks)
  • Tenure-based paid Sabbatical Leave (up to 6 weeks)
  • Flexible Out of Office Plan - Take time when you need it
  • Ample on-site parking & pre-tax commuter benefits
  • Healthy on-site lunches, snacks, beverages, & treats
  • Regularly sponsored professional development opportunities
  • Many opt-in culture events across our diverse community
  • And of course... unlimited 3D prints
