Responsibilities

  • Run budget-vs-actual on capacity commitments and infrastructure programs, tracking expected eventual spend against approved commitments and customer-driven demand.
  • Lead financial analysis for capacity-mix decisions, multi-region buildouts on key infrastructure components.

  • Partner with the Infra and BD leads on deal-to-operations handoffs, ensuring budgets set at contract signing are operationalized at go-live and tracked through their full term.

  • Strong financial modeling, analytical, and problem-solving skills with the ability to independently see issues through to resolution, including building complex unit-economics and capacity-planning models.

  • Proven track record of managing multiple work streams under tight timelines, with best-in-class attention to detail and unwavering commitment to accuracy.
  • Exemplary interpersonal skills to translate financial data into actionable insights for senior leadership and non-finance stakeholders.
