  • 1-4 years in finance, business operations, or strategy at a fast-growing tech startup , ideally with strong ownership of cross-functional initiatives.
  • Top-tier academic background , ideally in business, finance, or economics from a well-regarded university.
  • A demonstrated ability to translate data into business decisions through pattern recognition and storytelling.

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • Experience creating pitch decks and executive-ready reports.

    • Compensation, Benefits & Perks

  • Salary : $120,000 - $180,000 base
  • Equity : Highly competitive stock option package
  • Benefits : Full health, dental, and vision coverage
