What You’ll Be Doing (Responsibilities):

  • Strategic Finance & Planning

    • Lead rolling forecasts, annual planning, and scenario modeling across Consumer Products and Enterprise Solutions

    • Build and maintain financial models for fundraising, M&A evaluation, and strategic decision-making

    • Design and deploy AI-assisted workflows that automate recurring FP&A processes — variance analysis, forecast refreshes, reporting packages — using Claude, GPT, Gemini, or equivalent

    • Identify where LLMs can replace low-value analytical labor and build the infrastructure to make that permanent

    Business Partnership

    • Partner with business unit leaders to analyze ROI on infrastructure investments and new product initiatives

What We Look For in You (Required Qualifications):

  • 4–7+ years in Strategic Finance, FP&A, Corporate Finance, or Investment Banking

  • Demonstrated experience using AI tools (Claude, GPT, Gemini) to automate or accelerate financial analysis workflows, not just as a chat interface, but as an operational layer

  • Advanced financial modeling in Excel or Google Sheets; ability to build dynamic, scenario-driven models from scratch

  • Exceptional communication skills — you can write a board narrative and present to a CFO without hand-holding

  • Highly organized; capable of managing competing priorities in a fast-moving environment

  • Understanding of Bitcoin fundamentals and cryptocurrency markets.

Nice To Haves (Preferred Qualifications):

  • Hands-on experience with workflow automation tools (n8n, Zapier, Make) or LLM API integration

  • Familiarity with SQL or Python, not required, but useful for validating AI-generated outputs

  • Experience with ERP or BI platforms (NetSuite, Looker, Tableau)

  • CFA or MBA

  • Background in Bitcoin, crypto, or high-growth fintech

  • Experience at a startup

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
