## Description

## Senior Product Finance Manager (Strategic Finance)

## About the Role

We're seeking a **Senior Product Finance Manager** to serve as the finance business partner to our CTO organization (Product, Engineering, R&D). This is a senior individual contributor role with high visibility to executive leadership and potential to build a team as we scale. This is a rare opportunity to build product finance infrastructure from the ground up and directly shape how we allocate capital across our evolving product suite.

## Responsibilities

- Act as the primary finance partner to the CTO organization (Product, Engineering, R&D), embedded in planning, prioritization, and major investment decisions

- Lead business cases and driver-based models for new product launches, major feature investments, and launch readiness, including revenue potential, COGS impact, and margin outcomes.

- Support investment gate materials (scenarios, sensitivities, and risks) and make recommendations for leadership.

- Define and operationalize KPIs for evaluating product performance: unit economics, SKU-level profitability, pricing sensitivity, and contribution margins across our evolving product portfolio

- Partner with Engineering leadership to understand and forecast key cost drivers (compute, infrastructure, vendor costs) and translate them into financial planning assumptions

- Lead annual planning and forecast cadence for the CTO org: budget, headcount, prioritization, and productivity assumptions.

- Partner with Product and GTM on pricing/packaging for new and existing offerings, ensuring value delivery aligns with value capture and cost structure

- Collaborate with Analytics and DevOps to define KPIs and ensure adoption of reliable reporting (clear definitions, single source of truth, decision-ready dashboards).

- Support the CFO and executive leadership on strategic initiatives

## Skills & Experience

- 10+ years in Strategic Finance, FP&A, Investment Banking, or management consulting (MBB)

- Proven experience supporting technical organizations and influencing executive decisions in ambiguous environments.

- Strong driver-based modeling skills; ability to structure ambiguous problems and communicate trade-offs clearly

- Advanced Excel/Sheets and comfort with BI tools (Looker, Omni, Tableau, etc.); SQL is a strong plus

- Outstanding communication and stakeholder management skills with senior technical and GTM stakeholders, as well as non-finance audiences

- Track record of operating in fast-paced, high-growth, VC-backed environments

## Strongly Preferred

- Understanding of cloud infrastructure and variable cost structures

- Prior exposure to multi-product portfolio management and product-led growth motions

- Experience scaling finance processes through periods of rapid organizational growth

- Product intuition and curiosity – you ask 'why' and understand what drives product decisions
