Circle Internet Services Inc.
Senior Financial Analyst - Corp FP&A
Circle Internet Services Inc., San Francisco, California, United States, 94199
Join our Finance team as a Senior Financial Analyst driving strategic financial planning and analysis. In this high‑impact role, you'll own core planning processes, partner cross‑functionally with R&D and G&A to guide investment decisions, and deliver financial insights that shape business strategy. You'll leverage financial modeling, data analytics, and automation to drive better decision‑making across the organization.
About the Team Our FP&A team partners with stakeholders across the company to provide financial insights that fuel smart growth. We lead budgeting, forecasting, and scenario‑planning processes, while also developing tools and frameworks that help leaders understand their performance and make confident investment decisions. We value curiosity, precision, and a builder mindset — and we’re excited to add a teammate who thrives in both the numbers and strategy.
What You'll Do
Own the end‑to‑end planning and forecast rhythms for the company — leading the annual plan, quarterly reforecasts, and monthly close/BvA reviews, while driving alignment between top‑down targets and bottom‑up business plans.
Build and maintain fully‑linked financial models across P&L, balance sheet, cash, billings, and ACV metrics used by the CFO and executive team for decision‑making.
Develop scenario and sensitivity frameworks (pricing, headcount pacing, gross margin levers, investment trade‑offs) to support strategic choices by the CEO/CFO.
Serve as finance partner to R&D and G&A — reviewing spend, headcount plans, and vendor strategy; quantifying ROI and resource efficiency to shape budget allocation.
Drive COGS and unit economics understanding — including gross margin decomposition, cloud cost modeling, cost‑to‑serve analysis, and MAC/preferred‑pricing strategy evaluation.
Collaborate with Engineering, Procurement, and Operations to identify and implement cost optimization initiatives that improve operating leverage.
Write and modify SQL queries to pull financial and product‑usage data from Snowflake for self‑serve analysis, data validation, and forecast integration.
Design planning structures and workflows in Pigment — building scalable modules, dashboards, and driver logic powering forecast submissions and executive views.
Automate recurring financial reporting — including executive readouts, operating reviews, and board‑level materials — improving accuracy, speed, and consistency of insight delivery.
Who You Are
You have 5–8+ years of experience in FP&A, corporate finance, or business analytics, ideally in a SaaS or tech environment.
You’re fluent in Excel/Sheets and skilled in building complex, multi‑driver financial models.
You can write and optimize SQL queries to pull and analyze data from multiple sources.
You have hands‑on experience with planning platforms like Pigment, Anaplan, or Adaptive.
You’ve worked closely with cross‑functional partners across G&A, R&D, or COGS orgs.
You have a solid understanding of GAAP vs. Non‑GAAP metrics and how they inform reporting and planning.
You’re detail‑oriented, curious, and proactive in driving clarity and insight from data.
You enjoy building repeatable processes and tooling that scale with the business.
