Job Description

• Set and enforce the financial guardrails for investment decisions across new products, partnerships, and GTM motions. Build the frameworks that determine where we place incremental dollars — and the hurdle rates we hold the business accountable to. • Own the economic engine — CAC/LTV, payback, contribution margin, pricing strategy — and drive cross-company alignment on the levers that accelerate profitable growth. • Co-own the narrative with the CFO — architecting insights, frameworks, and recommendations for the CEO, ELT, and Board — translating complexity into clarity and action. • Own and evolve high-impact financial models (e.g., revenue forecast, partnerships ROI, CAC payback) that inform quarterly targets, hiring plans, and investment decisions. • Create the review rhythms that drive accountability — cross-functional target setting, monthly/quarterly business reviews, strategic initiative tracking, and performance reviews that drive actual prioritization.
