About the Role:

We’re looking for an FP&A Manager, R&D & G&A to join our Finance team. This role is the financial lead for Engineering, Product, and G&A organizations, with a clear mandate to drive financial discipline through planning, forecasting, and reporting, while improving operational efficiency in headcount and vendor spend.

You will run a tight operating cadence across R&D and G&A: budget vs. actuals (BvA) rigor, bottoms-up workforce planning, and building scalable tooling and processes that keep teams moving fast while staying inside the company’s spend and cash guardrails.

If you’re based within a pre-determined commuting distance of one of our offices (SF, NY, London, or Berlin), the role includes in-office anchor days on Monday, Tuesday, and Friday. If you're located beyond that distance, the role is fully remote. For location-specific details, please connect with our recruiting team.

What You Will Do:

• Own the R&D + G&A spend envelope (OpEx + headcount) across Engineering, Product, Design, Data, and G&A functions, setting clear spend and hiring guardrails and providing early visibility into risks and tradeoffs.
• Run planning and forecasting for your areas, including annual planning, quarterly reforecasts, and monthly updates with clear assumptions and variance narratives.
• Lead workforce planning with bottoms-up headcount models and a dollar-based resource envelope, partnering with People/Talent and functional leaders to sequence hiring against roadmap, compliance, and operational scale, and coordinating with Strategic Finance where company-level narratives, long-range parameters, or cross-functional investment decisions require tight alignment.
• Partner with Procurement to manage internal tooling and SaaS spend and drive cost optimization, including a tracked pipeline for renewals, vendor rationalization, and efficiency opportunities.
• Lead monthly BvA reviews and a decision-making cadence, improving reporting and accrual accuracy and streamlining controls through automation (flag exceptions, reduce manual review).

About You:

• Experienced FP&A partner to technical and corporate leaders with strong executive communication.
• Tech-forward operator – You go beyond Excel. You use AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot) to automate, clean, and generate insights. You treat Finance like a product—always shipping improvements.
• Detail-obsessed – You know that a single error in commission logic or start dates can swing the forecast by millions. You sweat the details so the CFO doesn’t have to.

Benefits:

• Competitive compensation package, including equity.
• Inclusive Healthcare Package.
• Learn and Grow - we provide mentorship and send you to events that help you build your network and skills.
• Flexible Time Off.
• We will provide you the gear you need to do your role, and a WFH budget for you to outfit your space as needed.

The San Francisco, CA base pay range for this role is $180,000 - $210,000. Actual salary will be based on job-related skills, experience, and location. Compensation outside of San Francisco may be adjusted based on employee location. The total compensation package may include benefits, equity-based compensation, and eligibility for a company bonus or variable pay program depending on the role. Your recruiter can share more details during the hiring process.
