• Build, maintain, and continuously improve driver-based financial models, including long-range plans, bookings models, forecasts, and ad hoc analyses.
• Lead annual, quarterly, and monthly planning and forecasting cadences, integrating inputs from business partners into the broader corporate forecast.
• Provide financial analysis and recommendations on headcount, investment decisions, resource allocation, and SaaS unit economics.
