Requirements

What you’ll need

3–8 years of post-undergrad experience in investment banking, private equity, growth equity, venture capital, and/or strategic finance at a high-growth SaaS startup
Strong modeling fluency: you build clean, defensible financial models and are comfortable with cohort analysis, unit economics, and scenario planning
Fluency in SaaS metrics: ARR, NDR, GRR, CAC, payback, magic number, burn multiple, gross margin, and cohort retention
A hands-on operator's mindset — you live in the model, run the budget, and drive decisions, not just produce decks
The temperament to hold founders and senior leaders accountable on budget, spend, and runway, and to push back when needed
Comfort with ambiguity; you build the playbook as you go and don't need defined scope to be effective
An AI-native approach to finance — modern FP&A stack, automation, and AI tooling, not legacy Excel-only workflows
