• Build and maintain program financial models including budgets, forecasts, cash flow projections, and variance analyses
• Monitor program financial performance against baseline, identifying and communicating key cost and schedule variances with clear, actionable insights
• Support the development of program financial forecasts for executive leadership and the Board of Directors
• Assist in managing the PMO risk and opportunity register to support successful program execution
• Contribute to the continuous improvement of program controls processes, tools, and reporting infrastructure

• Hands‑on experience with program financial management, including budgeting, EAC development, and variance analysis
• Understanding of government contract structures (cost‑plus, FFP, T&M) and their financial management implications
• Solid understanding of GAAP, including ASC 606 revenue recognition and cost accounting fundamentals
• Strong financial modeling skills in Excel, including Power Query and/or Power Pivot, and Power BI
• Ability to communicate financial results and complex concepts clearly to program managers, functional leaders, and executives

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience preparing customer‑facing cost and schedule performance reports (e.g., CPR, IMS)
• Working knowledge of FAR/DFARS and DCAA compliance requirements
• Experience at an early‑stage or growth‑stage defense technology company
• Familiarity with FP&A or program controls platforms
• Curiosity about and openness to AI‑enabled tools that improve financial analysis, forecasting, or reporting workflows

COMPENSATION

• Base Salary: $90,000 – $165,000
• Equity + Benefits including Health, Dental, Vision, HRA/HSA options, PTO and paid holidays, 401K, Parental Leave
