Overview:

G42 Americas is a global artificial intelligence and technology group with its origins in Abu Dhabi, rapidly growing its presence in the US, Europe and other global markets. We are building a vertically integrated AI powerhouse with an ambition and a proposition on par with the world's leading hyperscalers, spanning AI data centers, hyperscale AI cloud infrastructure and frontier AI applications.

At the core of that ambition is a simple idea: G42 is building the world's AI token factory and AI agent factory, the industrial-scale infrastructure that produces intelligence, and the platforms that turn that intelligence into agents and applications reshaping how governments, enterprises and society work.

As we continue our rapid expansion, we are seeking a Senior Analyst, Strategic Finance & Analytics to turn financial and operational data into the insight that drives decisions across the business.

This is an analyst seat with unusual reach. You will build the reporting, models and analysis that leadership uses to run a business scaling at extraordinary speed, working across planning, performance reporting and decision support rather than sitting in one narrow lane. You will be given the objective and expected to structure the problem yourself, work through incomplete information, and come back with an analysis and a recommendation.

We are also building this function to be AI-native from the start. We expect our analysts to use AI as a force multiplier and to self-serve their own workflows: pulling data together across systems, drafting analysis and commentary, building visuals, and automating recurring work so time goes into judgment rather than production. Fluency with these tools matters here as much as spreadsheet skill.

You will work directly with senior finance leaders and business partners, with visibility to the executive team early in your career and real ownership of the outputs that carry your name.

G42 Americas is headquartered in Bellevue, Washington. We are in the formative stage of building the company, its leadership team, operating rhythms and culture, and we value meaningful time together in person. Our preference is for candidates based in the Seattle/Bellevue area, and we are also open to candidates located elsewhere in the US who can travel to Bellevue regularly, in line with business needs and key milestones.

Responsibilities:

Reporting and Insights

• Build and maintain recurring management reporting across P&L, cash, headcount, and business KPIs — with an emphasis on insight, not just output
• Deliver variance analysis that goes beyond "what moved" to build a clear, data-driven narrative: why it moved, what it means, and what should happen next
• Translate complex financial and operational data into compelling stories for leadership reviews, board packs, and investor reporting
• Design and maintain BI dashboards (Tableau, Power BI, Looker, or similar) that give the business real-time, self-serve visibility into performance

Planning and Forecasting

• Support the annual budget, rolling forecasts, and long-range planning cycles with rigorous, well-structured models
• Build and maintain dynamic financial models across the compute stack - GPUs, storage, networking, data centers, and power - alongside revenue, cost, and headcount
• Track actuals against plan, using data patterns and trends to flag risks and opportunities before they become surprises
• Consolidate inputs from business partners into clean, reconciled, audit-ready submissions

Decision Support and Strategic Analysis

• Build sharp, decision-ready analysis for business cases, pricing, commercial deals, and investment decisions
• Run scenario and sensitivity modeling on capacity, utilization, and capital deployment to stress-test assumptions
• Develop unit-economics views spanning capacity, utilization, consumption revenue, and cost to serve
• Respond to ad hoc leadership questions quickly and with a clear point of view, backed by data, not just intuition

AI, BI and Automation

• Pull, reconcile, and structure data from ERP, billing, planning, and operational systems into reliable, analysis-ready datasets
• Apply AI tools (e.g., Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude, etc.) to accelerate data preparation, document review, drafting, and visualization
• Automate recurring reporting and analysis workflows so the team spends its time on judgment and insight, not manual production
• Partner with Finance BI and Systems teams to improve data quality, metric definitions, and self-service reporting infrastructure
• Bring a builder's mindset to modern finance tooling - comfortable evaluating and adopting new AI/BI capabilities as they emerge

Qualifications:

• 4-7 years across strategic finance, FP&A, investment banking, consulting, private equity or growth equity, or a finance operating role at a high-growth technology company; more experience considered at the Senior Analyst level
• Strong financial modeling and Excel skills, with sound understanding of financial statements
• Use of AI tools as a force multiplier in analysis and reporting, with the ability to self-serve your own workflows rather than waiting on others for data
• Clear written and verbal communication, with the ability to turn analysis into a simple, compelling narrative for non-finance audiences
• Comfort structuring ambiguous problems and working through incomplete information under tight timelines
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience; a quantitative or technical degree is a plus

Our Culture: Founder Mode

G42 Americas is a company for builders. We are scaling at extraordinary speed, and we run the business the way foundersdo: hands-on, close to the work, biased to action and personally accountable for outcomes.

• Hands-on leadership. Our leaders go deep. They build, ship and own outcomes; they do not simply oversee.
• Founder mode. High ownership, high velocity, direct communication, and minimal bureaucracy.
• Room to shape. The blank canvas and pace of a startup, built on the foundation of an established global business with capital, customers, infrastructure, and world-class partners already in place.
• Build something great. We are assembling a few exceptional people to build a generational company, and we expect everyone who joins to leave a personal mark on what gets built.
