Lead FP&A (R5361)

We are building advanced autonomous systems that redefine the future of defense and national security. Scaling a mission-driven company at this pace requires financial precision, rapid insight, and a data backbone built for speed and accuracy.

As a Lead FP&A, you will own the end-to-end GTM cost structure: OpEx budgets, headcount planning, spend analytics, and the data pipelines and reporting frameworks that power GTM intelligence. You’ll also set the SOPs and data quality standards that shift finance from reactive reporting to proactive leadership.

Responsibilities:

• Headcount & Spend Management:
• Build and maintain GTM headcount, spend forecasting, tracking, and capacity models
• Provide full visibility into GTM Opex, identifying cost drivers and resource optimization opportunities

• Build automated reporting workflows and capacity models in partnership with Data Engineering or Anaplan teams
• Write and maintain SQL for ETL workflows across the data lake / Databricks environment
• Build and manage scalable, reliable data pipelines powering GTM finance reporting

• Data Quality, Governance & SOPs:
• Establish and enforce data quality monitoring, validation rules, and anomaly detection
• Write SOPs for key GTM finance processes: close, headcount reconciliation, budget loading, variance reporting
• Drive consistent KPI and metric definitions across GTM, Finance, and Data
• Implement data governance practices to protect reporting integrity

• Cross-Functional Collaboration & Process Improvement:
• Partner with Revenue Ops, HR, Recruiting, Accounting, and Data to ensure financial plans match operational reality
• Collaborate with Revenue Operations on quotas, pipeline forecasting, and GTM capacity
• Continuously streamline tools, reporting, and processes with an automation-first mindset
• Lead special projects and strategic analyses for finance leadership
