Job description

Giga is building gigawatts of AI data centers to hasten a future of intelligence and abundance. We build data centers fast and at scale by combining the capabilities of an equipment supplier, engineering firm, general contractor, and real estate developer under one roof. Our team moves quickly and thinks practically. If you're ready to make an impact in an industry that matters, we're looking for people like you.

• The Pace: We're building at a speed most companies talk about but never actually operate at. If you've been bored somewhere else, you won't be here.
• The Impact: Every person at Giga touches the work that matters. No layers, no waiting for approval chains. You'll see your fingerprints on what we ship.
• The Team: A team of operators defining the future of AI infrastructure. We recruit A-players from the most innovative companies in the world, and they choose Giga because the work here means more.
• The Moment: AI doesn't run without power, and that's us. Giga is the picks and shovels behind the AI revolution. This industry is about to explode, and you'll be in the room where it's already happening.

What you'll do

As a Senior Financial Analyst, Corporate FP&A, you'll own the financial infrastructure that keeps Giga running and growing — budgeting, forecasting, reporting, and the analytical work that helps leadership make fast, well-informed decisions. You'll work directly with business unit leaders and executive leadership to translate what's happening across the business into clear financial insights and actionable recommendations. If you want to understand the full P&L of a high-growth infrastructure company and build the systems that scale with it, this is that role.

Where you'll work

We are an in-office culture — velocity matters when you're building physical infrastructure, and the best decisions happen in the room. This role is ideally based in our Houston office with full-time onsite expectations outside of bi-weekly WFH Fridays.

That said, we will make exceptions for truly exceptional talent if you live outside one of our hubs. If you're the right person for this role, we'll have a conversation about what works.

Responsibilities

• Own the annual budgeting process and rolling monthly/quarterly forecasts across all business units.
• Build and maintain the three-statement corporate financial model integrating revenue, cost, headcount, and capital deployment assumptions.
• Develop and maintain department-level budget tracking and variance analysis, partnering with business unit leaders to understand drivers and risks.
• Support long-range planning and scenario analysis to help leadership evaluate strategic decisions and growth investments.
• Support capital allocation through project return on investment calculations.
• Support executive business reporting at MBRs and QBRs
• Build and maintain financial reporting infrastructure — standardizing templates, automating data pulls, and improving reporting cycle times.
• Develop unit economic models and business case analyses to evaluate new initiatives, products, and investments.
• Develop business dashboards to show real-time metric reporting.
• Partner closely with department heads across sales, operations, manufacturing, and engineering to align financial plans with operational realities.
• Translate complex financial data into clear narratives and actionable recommendations for non-finance stakeholders.
• Identify risks and opportunities across the business and proactively surface them to leadership with supporting analysis.
• Support Head of Strategic Finance on board materials, investor updates, and financing-related financial analysis as needed.
• Identify and implement improvements to financial processes, reporting systems, and analytical frameworks as Giga scales.
• Support evaluation and implementation of FP&A tools and financial planning software.
• Build scalable models and templates that can be maintained and replicated as the business grows.
• Incorporate use of AI tooling to improve process accuracy and efficiency

Requirements

• 3-6 years of experience in corporate FP&A, financial planning, business finance, or a related corporate finance function.
• Strong three-statement financial modeling skills including P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow integration.
• Experience owning a budgeting and forecasting process end-to-end, including working with business unit stakeholders to build bottoms-up plans, data sources, and cadence.
• Demonstrated ability to synthesize complex financial data into clear narratives and business insights.
• Experience with business reporting of actuals and variance to budget.
• Proficiency in Excel/Google Sheets; ability to build and own complex models independently. Strong attention to accurate and explainable model development.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills — you can explain financial results to people who don't speak finance.
• Bachelor's degree in Finance, Economics, Accounting, or a related field.
• Experience in energy, infrastructure, data centers, hyperscaler, manufacturing, or capital-intensive industries.
• Experience supporting a company through a fundraise or rapid scaling period as an internal finance team member.
• MBA or CFA designation.
• Experience with SQL or data visualization tools for financial reporting automation.
• Experience with Anaplan, Claude, or other FP&A tools.
• Employer-assisted health, dental, and vision insurance
• Equity (options) in a rapidly growing startup
• 401(k) with 4% employer match
• Unlimited PTO
• Parental leave
• Healthcare and Dependent Care FSA or HSA
