Strategic Finance Manager

About the role:

We’re looking for a Strategic Finance Manager to further evolve the way we drive decision-making at Prismatic. You’ll report to the CFO, serving as the lead point of contact whenever we need to make a critical decision grounded in trusted data and analysis. This role will bring the unique vantage point of understanding company-wide data at a deep level to help drive strategy both at the entire company and individual team levels.

This is a foundational hire who will have a wide latitude to build processes and capabilities from scratch. You’ll work cross-functionally across the entire company to identify the data that is critical to evaluating key functions/processes, ensure that data’s accuracy, and generate/disseminate insights from that data to drive decision-making. You will sit within Finance, but will be a critical partner to every team across the company with high-frequency collaboration. This role is ideal for someone who’s comfortable owning ambiguity, wants to be the go-to analytical and strategic resource for an entire company, and is eager to develop a deep knowledge of what drives success in every function at a scaling SaaS company.

What you will do:

• Own cross-functional KPI reporting, ensuring every team has accurate and timely visibility into how they’re performing, as well as proactively communicating key signals as they become apparent
• Lead ad hoc strategic planning efforts, partnering with leadership to evaluate new initiatives, market opportunities, and business tradeoffs.
• Serve as the first responder for ad hoc analysis requests from stakeholders across the company, from the executive team to individual department leads
• Own the entire breadth of FP&A functions for the company, including Board and investor reporting, long- and short-term financial planning, variance analysis, and other financial reporting.
• Ensure the integrity of the underlying data that reporting depends on, directly addressing or partnering with teams to fix quality issues at the source rather than patching them downstream.
• Build, maintain, and continuously improve data models and reporting capabilities, leveraging AI to maintain ownership of more technical aspects of our data infrastructure.
• Communicate findings clearly to non-financial audiences, translating data into recommendations that drive decisions.

About you:

• 3-5 years of experience spanning investment banking, private equity, or a similar high-rigor analytical background, combined with experience in FP&A or strategic finance at an operating company (ideally a high-growth SaaS or software startup).
• Strong understanding of core SaaS metrics (ARR, NRR/GRR, CAC, LTV, magic number, burn multiple, rule of 40, etc.) and how they connect to the underlying business.
• Excellent financial modeling skills — able to build models that are clean, well-structured, and hold up under scrutiny.
• A proven track record in building processes/tooling from scratch, ideally utilizing AI to reliably accelerate development.
• Demonstrated ability to operate as a strategic thought partner to leadership by providing data with context and a viewpoint, not just reporting numbers.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to distill complex analysis into clear takeaways for non-finance audiences.
• Highly organized and responsive — capable of juggling multiple concurrent requests from different teams without dropping the ball on data quality or deadlines.
• Comfortable operating independently in a fast-moving, evolving environment.

Bonus points for:

• Experience with dbt and Snowflake, or comparable modern data-stack tooling.
• Experience at a company under ~100 employees, where you built reporting processes rather than inherited them.
• Understanding of SQL.
• Familiarity with BI/dashboarding tools.
• Familiarity with FP&A tools.

Pay range:

• The pay range for this role is $155,000 - $185,000/yr USD + Equity
