Senior Financial Analyst in United States at Jobgether

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Senior Financial Analyst based in the United States.

This is a high-impact opportunity for a finance professional to play a key role in shaping investment decisions across a fast-scaling SaaS organization. Embedded within the FP&A team, you will act as a strategic partner to the R&D organization, translating complex financial data into actionable insights that guide product and engineering investments. You will support decision-making at both operational and executive levels, helping define how resources are allocated across product development, cloud infrastructure, and innovation initiatives. The role combines deep financial analysis with strategic business partnering in a highly collaborative environment. If you enjoy building models that influence real business outcomes and working closely with technical teams, this position offers strong visibility and impact.

• Own annual budgeting, rolling forecasts, and financial planning for the R&D organization, including headcount, contractor spend, tooling, software, and infrastructure allocations.
• Serve as the primary finance partner for R&D leadership, supporting ad hoc analysis, scenario modeling, and strategic decision-making.
• Build and maintain business case models for product development initiatives, platform investments, and engineering projects, including cost, revenue assumptions, and payback analysis.
• Track and evaluate actual performance of R&D investments against original financial models, identifying variances and insights for leadership.
• Develop and maintain cloud infrastructure cost models, including forecasting usage, analyzing product-level spend, and identifying optimization opportunities.
• Support product-level P&L reporting, including ARR, revenue, gross margin, and investment allocation across product lines.
• Partner with engineering and product teams to evaluate tradeoffs between cost structure, architecture decisions, and long-term scalability.
• Contribute to executive and board-level reporting by delivering clear financial narratives tied to product and business performance.
• Identify efficiency opportunities across cloud and R&D spend, including resource optimization and cost-saving initiatives.

Requirements

• 5–8 years of experience in FP&A, corporate finance, or analytical roles within SaaS or technology companies.
• Strong experience with budgeting, forecasting, headcount modeling, variance analysis, and core FP&A disciplines.
• Proven ability to build and own financial models for product-level P&Ls, including revenue, COGS, gross margin, and investment tracking.
• Strong understanding of SaaS metrics such as ARR, NRR, pipeline performance, CAC, LTV, and related unit economics.
• Experience working with cloud infrastructure cost structures and translating them into financial models.
• Advanced analytical and modeling skills with the ability to work in environments with incomplete or evolving data.
• Strong communication skills with the ability to translate complex financial concepts into clear business insights for non-finance stakeholders.
• Comfortable partnering cross-functionally with engineering, product, sales, and executive teams in a fast-paced environment.
• Experience leveraging AI tools for modeling, analysis, or research while applying strong judgment to validate outputs.
• Proactive, business-partner mindset with the ability to bring recommendations rather than just reporting results.

Benefits

• Competitive base salary ranging from $96,000 to $120,000 USD annually.
• Eligibility for bonus potential and equity (for eligible roles).
• Flexible monthly stipend (Flex Fund).
• Retirement savings plan (401k or pension, depending on eligibility).
