• Role Summary:
• The Senior Financial Analyst – Financial Modeling is the primary financial modeling resource for the CFO. This role exists to ensure the models the CFO and executive team rely on for fundraising, investor reporting, and strategic decision-making are accurate, current, and built to withstand scrutiny. The role requires someone who can build rigorous financial models and is equally capable of driving the cross-functional data collection process that makes those models reliable.

This is a modeling-first role with a meaningful organizational management component. The right candidate builds models as their primary work product, takes active ownership of the data pipeline feeding those models, and serves as the connective tissue across Office of the CEO, Finance, Accounting, Contracts & Procurement, Operations, Manufacturing, Engineering, and Growth to ensure the right data gets into the right place at the right time. The position sits within the CFO’s direct staff and operates with minimal direction in a fast-moving, capital-intensive environment.

Essential Responsibilities:

Own and maintain the enterprise investor model — a multi-entity, multi-year consolidated three-statement model integrating operating assumptions across all entities into a single investor-grade view

Build and maintain capital structure models supporting debt facility analysis, government-guaranteed financing structures, equity round sizing, and repayment waterfalls

Develop scenario and sensitivity analyses across revenue timing, cost assumptions, headcount ramp, and capital structure to support executive and investor decision-making

Build M&A target valuation models including DCF, comparable company analysis, precedent transaction multiples, pro forma consolidations, and deal structure analysis

Maintain models with a standard of transparency and auditability such that assumptions are clearly documented, formulas are traceable, and outputs can be independently verified

Serve as the enterprise data coordinator for financial models — own the end-to-end process of identifying, requesting, validating, and integrating data inputs from across the organization

Actively manage data relationships across Finance, Accounting, Contracts & Procurement, Manufacturing, Engineering, and Growth/BD to establish reliable, repeatable data flows into financial models

Drive accountability for data delivery across departments — define what data is needed, from whom, in what format, and by when; follow through to ensure commitments are met

Build and maintain data mapping and transformation logic to normalize inputs across entities and systems with inconsistent structures

Proactively identify gaps, inconsistencies, and latency issues in data flows before they surface in model outputs; escalate and resolve with a sense of urgency

Partner with Accounting and FP&A to build durable, low-maintenance data pipelines that reduce manual effort and improve model refresh cycle time

Integrate entity-level financial inputs and operating assumptions into the consolidated enterprise model in support of investor and executive reporting

Maintain intercompany eliminations and cross-entity adjustments within the model layer to produce a clean consolidated view

Ensure entity-level models and the consolidated enterprise model are reconciled and internally consistent at every update cycle

Align with FP&A leadership to ensure entity-level planning assumptions are accurately reflected in enterprise model inputs

Build and maintain financial models and supporting schedules for active fundraising processes including equity rounds and government loan facilities

Prepare investor-facing financial output schedules, returns analyses, and sources and uses presentations derived from enterprise models

Respond to investor and lender model requests and due diligence questions with speed and accuracy; support data room population

Build and maintain demand and pipeline models to support investor and lender narratives around revenue growth and market opportunity

Proven experience driving cross-functional data collection processes — managing relationships and timelines across multiple departments to ensure model inputs are accurate and timely
