About the Role

We’re hiring a Strategic Finance Lead to embed with the teams that drive our business — GTM, Product, and others as we grow — and raise the quality of decisions across the company. This is a partnering seat, not a reporting one: you’ll be in the room when a decision is being framed, not summarizing it afterward.

You’ll own the financial models for the areas you support, end to end. Because you own them, you’re in the decision rather than downstream of it. When a metric moves, your job isn’t to report that it moved — it’s to explain why, say whether that’s good or bad, and recommend what to do about it.

When your business partners are weighing a decision, you’re the person quantifying the return. You won’t inherit a playbook. You’ll write one — defining how finance partners with the business as the function grows. The bar we’re setting Today, a conversation about CAC often ends at “CAC went to $X because spend changed.

” That’s arithmetic. We want a partner who asks the next questions: why did spend move — was it a deliberate test? What was the hypothesis, and how did it perform? How do we know our experiments are working? Is this a healthy shift or an early warning?

That’s the difference between reporting numbers and driving decisions, and it’s the heart of this role. We have good visibility into top-line trends; what we want is the ability to go a level deeper, consistently. That takes persistence — following the signal and going to find the data rather than waiting
