• Support pricing strategy and provide analysis for customer deals, including ROI and gross margin impact.
• Maintain and enhance automated revenue and gross margin forecasts; support monthly, quarterly, and board-level reporting.
• Help model GTM headcount and quota plans; evaluate ROI for GTM investments.
• Partner with Sales, Product, and Operations to measure efficiency (CAC, payback, funnel conversion) and propose improvements.
• Build and maintain reliable data ETL pipelines that feed financial models and dashboards, following Rescale’s data engineering standards.
• Analyze cloud spend; model scenarios to improve gross margin; recommend procurement strategies.
• Participate in peer code reviews for all production-grade scripts and workflows; follow Rescale’s established coding standards, version control practices, and pull request processes.
• Work directly with the Director of Strategic Finance on AI-enabled digital transformation initiatives to modernize how finance operates at Rescale.
• Tackle urgent projects from the CFO, executive team, or GTM leadership.

Requirements
