Job Description:
We’re building advanced autonomous systems for defense and commercial markets. Scaling a business like this requires world‑class financial modeling, a deep understanding of how complex hardware + software companies create value, and the ability to turn complexity into clarity.
We’re hiring a Senior Manager, Strategic Finance to be the VP of FP&A’s analytical right hand and the architect of our long‑range financial model. You excel at building dynamic, accurate, scalable 3‑statement models grounded in unit economics and operational drivers. You’ve lived in Excel—investment banking, PE, hedge funds, equity research—and you bring a forward‑looking mindset around leveraging cloud tools, automation, and analytics to elevate what modeling can do.
This is the analytical engine of Strategic Finance, with a natural path to Investor Relations as the company scales.
If you’re a top‑tier modeler who loves understanding what drives a business and telling its story through numbers, you’ll thrive here.
