Job Description

Rockstar is recruiting for an innovative company that launched in 2023. Its first product was a drinks fridge that reimagined drinks storage as high-end furniture, powered by an AI Sight System that lets users see inside from their phone. The company's collectible colors have sold out more than seven times, and it has been featured by Dwell, The Wall Street Journal, Food & Wine, Men’s Journal, TIME Magazine, and more. The company is expanding beyond drinks fridges to build appliances that can make everyday moments warmer.

The Opportunity

The Director of FP&A will help build the financial foundation to support the company's next phase of growth. This role will own all financial forecasting, bringing structure to how growth is modeled in a business that spans hardware design, manufacturing, logistics, data and delivery services, and ultimately helping to make prudent, capital-efficient business decisions.

The right candidate thrives in ambiguity and loves creating order from chaos. They move fluidly between high-level strategy and detailed modeling. They are as comfortable in Excel as they are in a strategic conversation about pricing, tariffs, logistics network, multi-year capex deployment, headcount and manufacturing strategy.

This role leads an external accounting team, reports into the COO, and is remote with quarterly travel to Brooklyn.

Responsibilities

- Financial Strategy & Planning: Drive company-wide budgeting and forecasting for disciplined but aggressive scaling over 1, 3 even 5 years.

- Accounting & Controls: Oversee the monthly close and ensure scalable control processes.

- Cash Management: Manage capital allocation and cash flow forecasting.

- Demand & Inventory Planning: Build demand forecasting and inventory planning models.

- FIFO Inventory Accounting & Cost Visibility: Maintain FIFO inventory accounting practices.

- Tools & Systems Evaluation: Evaluate and implement tools, including ERP, forecasting, inventory systems.

- Board & Investor Reporting: Lead financial reporting for investors and executive stakeholders.

Who You Are

- Bachelor’s degree and 7+ years of experience in finance roles supporting a hardware or physical goods business. Experience in high-growth startup environments is required.

- Deep understanding of capital-intensive businesses, with strong ability to guide decision making around CapEx, debt, balance sheet and cashflow health.

- Highly skilled in financial modeling; comfortable building sophisticated and dynamic models for various strategic scenarios from scratch.

- Deep understanding of GAAP and financial accounting principles; experience with FIFO accounting and COGS reconciliation.

- Strategic mindset with operational execution rigor; you can jump-in day 1 and operate autonomously.

- An excellent communicator who can turn complex financial data into clear business insights.

- Pragmatic, scrappy, and curious — you care about details when they matter most, but you don’t get stuck in them.

- Excited by the challenge of helping a fast-growing, profitable hardware startup scale with discipline.

The annual base salary for this role is $160,000 - 200,000, variable depending on experience and location. The company also offers stock options and a comprehensive benefits package, including health benefits, unlimited time off, and of course, your own fully stocked fridge with your favorite go-to beverages.
