Strategic Finance

About Latent

Latent is building the clinical agentic engine for enterprise pharmacy—software that enables leading health systems to serve more patients, grow their pharmacy operations, and capture more value compliantly, without adding headcount. We are a fast-moving team looking for thoughtful, ambitious people who want to help build both the business and the systems behind it.

The Opportunity

Latent is hiring a Strategic Finance to support financial planning, business analysis, and day-to- day finance operations. You will work closely with company leadership and teams across the organization, helping us understand performance, allocate resources, manage spending, and build scalable financial processes.

This is a broad, hands-on role for someone who enjoys moving between strategic analysis and operational execution. On any given day, you might update the company’s financial model, prepare a budget review, analyze a business decision, negotiate with a vendor, or resolve an invoice.

Building the finance function
