Key Responsibilities

• Own the annual operating plan, quarterly forecasts, and monthly variance analysis for the assigned SBU or function.

• Coach analysts and mentor junior team members while helping build a strong finance organization in India.

Required Qualifications

• CPA, CFA, or MBA required.
• 10-15 years of FP&A or strategic finance experience.
• Technology industry FP&A or strategic finance experience, or an engineering degree combined with an MBA.
• Ability to operate effectively in a startup environment with ambiguity and limited structure, including building processes from scratch without established playbooks.
• Strong financial modeling, scenario analysis, and business partnering capabilities.
• Proven ability to influence senior business leaders through data-driven insights and sound financial judgment.
• Advanced financial modeling skills and comfort working with large datasets.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in technology, hardware, semiconductor, or FMCG industries.
• Manufacturing cost accounting exposure.

• The chance to work at the intersection of finance, operations, and advanced photonics technology—where your analysis directly influences investment, margin, and scale.
• Competitive compensation commensurate with experience, along with comprehensive health benefits.
• Meaningful exposure to cross-functional and global leadership teams across Singapore, Thailand, Canada, and the United States.
