About the Role :

As our first Staff Finance Data Analyst, you will be the technical anchor between Finance and Data. You’ll own the financial analytics stack—delivering trusted models, dashboards, and simulations that help leadership understand how usage‑based revenue flows through the business, where margin opportunities exist, and how we forecast growth. You’ll partner daily with FP&A, Product Monetization, Data Engineering, and Executive Leadership to turn complex usage signals into actionable financial insight.

What You Will Do :

• Model usage‑based economics  – Build and maintain dbt models in Snowflake that translate raw product telemetry into ARR, margin, and unit‑economics views.
• Forecast revenue & costs  – Design Python‑driven Monte Carlo and statistical models to project usage, revenue, and gross margin under multiple scenarios.
• Run variance & root‑cause analyses  – Explain plan‑vs‑actual deltas across revenue, COGS, and operating expense lines; surface the drivers that matter.
• Simulate pricing & packaging changes  – Partner with Product Monetization to quantify impact of new tiers, overage bands, and feature gates.
• Automate financial reporting  – Deliver self‑serve dashboards (e.g., Hex, Mode, Looker) that Finance, ELT, and Board stakeholders trust every month‑end close.
• Elevate data quality  – Define testing, reconciliation, and data‑quality SLAs so Finance can audit every revenue and cost metric back to source.
• Mentor analysts & engineers  – Provide best‑practice guidance on dbt design patterns, Snowflake optimization, and Python analytical tooling.
