Full Job Description
About the role:
In this role, you'll serve as a trusted strategic advisor to senior leadership across two fast-growing, AI-native businesses: an AI-native claims TPA and an AI-native platform for insurance.

As a strategic partner to senior leadership, you'll influence some of the company's most important decisions-from where we invest and how we scale to how we build an AI-native finance organization. You'll work cross-functionally, connecting strategy, finance, operations, and execution to help drive the business forward.

This is a high-impact, high-autonomy role for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment. You'll tackle the company's biggest challenges, lead cross-functional initiatives, and help build AI-first systems, processes, and operating rhythms that will define our next stage of growth.

What you'll do:
  • Partner directly with senior leadership to shape company strategy, driving decisions on growth, investments, capital allocation, and organizational priorities
  • Lead high-impact, cross-functional initiatives that improve business performance, partnering with leaders across Product, Engineering, Operations, Go-to-Market, Recruiting, and People from identifying opportunities through execution
  • Design the operating rhythms that help the company scale, including planning, forecasting, performance management, and company-wide decision-making processes.
  • Define the company's long-term financial strategy, including fundraising, strategic planning, and/or evaluating new business opportunities.
  • Directly shape how we build an AI-native finance organization, reimagining how AI augments every part of the workflows, from planning, analysis, decision-making, to execution

About you:
  • 4-6 years of experience across management consulting, investment banking, private equity, Strategic Finance or Business Operations roles in high-growth companies
  • Proficiency in complex financial modeling and planning
  • Comfortable working cross-functionally with multiple teams, building strong relationships, and driving alignment in an ambiguous, fast-moving environment.
  • Demonstrated outstanding analytical and problem-solving skills
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to simplify and articulate complex financial concepts to diverse stakeholders, from executives to operators.
  • Hands-on operator: comfortable digging into the details with teams, implementing solutions, and iterating quickly - not just producing metrics or analysis.
  • Detail-oriented and execution-focused, with the resilience to thrive in a high-performance, fast-paced setting.

Benefits:
  • Competitive salary & equity
  • Medical, dental & vision insurance
  • 401k with company match
  • Unlimited PTO
  • 3 days/week in SF office

We set our salary ranges using compensation data from companies similar to our stage and size. For this role, the estimated salary range for this position is $140,000 - $160,000. The actual base salary will vary depending on multiple factors unique to each candidate, including location, job-related knowledge, transferable skills, work experience and our assessment of your level during the interview process.

Nirvana offers a wide range of best-in-class, comprehensive benefits for this role including 100% employer paid healthcare plans, a healthy 401k match program, paid time off, parental leave, wellness reimbursement, work-from-home stipend and more.

In addition, Nirvana offers equity for all full-time employees, which is not included in the range listed above and will have a significant impact on your overall compensation.
