• Own the end-to-end production of Finance content for quarterly Board of Directors decks and monthly investor update memos.
• Execute deep-dive unit economic analyses into cohort retention, customer acquisition payback, and gross margins across customer segments and geographies.
• Monitor cash burn, runway scenarios, headcount growth plans, and budget-vs-actual variances in close partnership with FP&A and Strategic Finance.
• Partner with Finance leads to evaluate, select, and scale modern financial tooling.
• Support Controllership in establishing early-stage internal controls, transfer pricing policies, and compliance workflows as we prepare for annual audits with top-tier audit firms.
