- Expert-level Excel or Google Sheets modeling skills, including three-statement and unit economics models.
- Self-directed, able to find information and solve problems without playbooks or close management.
- Based in or willing to relocate to the San Francisco area, in the office at least three days a week.
- High urgency and a strong sense of ownership, comfortable with long hours and fast change.
Bonus points
- Experience moving into a tech or startup company after finance or consulting work.
- Prior planning and analysis work for a fast-scaling business would be an advantage.
- Involvement in capital raising, investor-facing reporting or acquisition deal work.
