Senior Financial AnalystAbout the RoleWe are looking for a Senior Financial Analyst to join our rapidly growing, pre-IPO FP&A team. In this role, you will own the expense forecasting and departmental budgeting process across the entire organization. You will serve as a strategic finance partner to Execs and department budget owners - helping them plan headcount, manage vendor spend, and stay on top of their budgets while supporting the company's broader growth objectives.
The position will report into our FP&A Manager and will be located in our San Francisco office (in office 3 days/week).

- Lead the headcount planning process, working with People / HR and hiring managers to manage payroll budget and hiring timelines across all departments
- Collect and consolidate departmental budgets into the company-wide expense plan, ensuring alignment across teams and identifying gaps or inconsistencies in assumptions
- Perform monthly expense variance analysis and identify key drivers of variance
- Develop reporting and dashboards that give department leads real-time visibility into their budget utilization and key cost metrics
- Work on board decks, investor materials, and executive presentations
About You- You're as comfortable presenting budget updates to an executive as you are building a headcount model from scratch
- 3+ years of experience in FP&A or corporate finance, preferably at a high-growth late-stage or public technology company
- Demonstrated experience owning an expense budget process, including headcount planning and departmental cost management
- Strong financial modeling skills with the ability to build bottoms-up expense models and scenario analyses
