Senior Finance Manager

Finance

Join Hover

Hover helps people design, improve, and protect the properties they love. With proprietary AI built on over a decade of real property data, Hover answers age-old questions like “What will it look like?” and “What will it cost?” Homeowners, contractors, and insurance professionals rely on Hover to get fully measured, accurate, and interactive 3D models of any property — all from a smartphone scan in minutes.

At Hover, we’re driven by curiosity, purpose, and a shared commitment to serving our customers, communities, and each other. We believe the best ideas come from diverse perspectives and are proud to cultivate an inclusive, high‑performance culture that inspires growth, accountability, and excellence. Backed by leading investors like Google Ventures and Menlo Ventures, and trusted by industry leaders including Travelers, State Farm, and Nationwide — we’re redefining how people understand and interact with their spaces.

Why Hover wants you

Hover is investing in its existing product suite and multiple nascent products to expand platform features, delight customers, and drive growth — and Finance sits at the center of those decisions. This is a high-ownership, individual-contributor role working closely with senior leaders across Sales, Marketing, and R&D. You'll join a lean, tenured team where your footprint will be immediate: real exposure to executive decision‑making, a flat structure that puts you close to the CFO, and a mandate to bring analytical rigor to how Hover allocates capital.

You will contribute by

Owning business‑partner relationships across Sales, Marketing, Engineering, Product, Design, and Data; driving the deeper analysis that turns “what happened” into “how do we make it happen”; influencing where Hover invests next; and raising the bar on how Hover's finance function operates.

• Serve as the finance lead for cross‑functional leaders through monthly closes, quarterly POR updates, the annual Plan, and the LRP.
• Evaluate ROI on GTM and product investments and benchmark resource allocation against peer companies.
• Pressure‑test competing investments and give leadership a clear, defensible read on trade‑offs.
• Partner with G&A peers across HR, Accounting, and Recruiting, and contribute to executive and board‑level reporting.

Your background includes

• 5+ years in a finance business‑partnership role with strong forecasting, variance analysis, and long‑range planning experience.
• Ability to build models from scratch with ambiguous or imperfect inputs, including scenario modeling.
• Outstanding communication skills — able to distill complex analysis for any audience, from analysts to executives.
• Fluency with AI tools as part of your everyday workflow.
• Extreme attention to detail paired with a service mindset.
• Experience with financial planning systems (e.g., NetSuite, Adaptive, Pigment); Hover plans in Drivetrain.

Nice-to-Haves

• ROI analysis experience in both GTM and product contexts.
• A track record of using AI to remove manual work from FP&A processes.
• Familiarity with metrics like NRR, sales payback, and Rule of 40.

Benefits

• Compensation - Competitive salary and meaningful equity in a fast‑growing company
• Healthcare - Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage for you and dependents
• Paid Time Off - Unlimited and flexible vacation policy
• Paid Family Leave - We support work/life balance and offer generous paid parental and new child bonding leave
• Mandatory Self‑Care Days - A day set aside each month to allow employees to recharge
• Remote Wellbeing Resources - We provide recurring fitness classes, meditation/ mindfulness tools, virtual therapy, and family planning assistance
• Learning - We encourage continued education and will help cover the cost of management training, conferences, workshops, or certifications
