- Model infrastructure and compute economics, and evaluate vendor commitments, pricing, and capital-allocation tradeoffs.
- Define, track, and report KPIs for topline performance, unit economics, and operational efficiency.
- Partner with Accounting on accurate and timely close processes and budget-vs-actuals analysis.
- Build scalable FP&A systems, dashboards, and automated reporting.

- Fluency in SaaS and usage-based financials, including gross margin, COGS, opex, headcount planning, and relevant board metrics.
- Comfort with ambiguity and a proactive, hands-on approach in a fast-paced, lean environment.
- Ability to form a point of view, make clear recommendations, weigh trade-offs, and communicate effectively with low ego.
