About the Role Ramp's Strategic Finance team sits at the center of how the company allocates its time and resources. We're hiring across three complementary tracks — and looking for people with sharp financial instincts, a builder's mindset, and the drive to take on a large scope quickly. Whether you lean toward GTM strategy, FP&A infrastructure, or broad strategic partnership, this is a rare opportunity to shape a pre-IPO company at a pivotal moment in its growth.

Product Finance — Own models and KPIs, partner with Product and GTM, lead cross-functional planning. FP&A — Drive consolidated forecasting, run budgeting cycles, and build tooling to automate finance workflows. GTM Finance & Operations — Design scalable GTM processes, own KPI dashboards, and translate strategy into execution alongside operators.

What You'll Do

  • Build and own detailed financial and operational models with the highest quality and accuracy
  • Use data to influence key strategic decisions across Product, GTM, and business leadership
  • Lead planning analyses for cross-functional teams, evaluating tradeoffs across growth, efficiency, and resourcing
  • Identify and develop KPIs; build dashboards to monitor performance and communicate insights to stakeholders
  • Partner closely with business leaders to translate strategy into execution and drive accountability
  • Help run bi-annual budgeting and headcount planning cycles
  • Manage company performance against financial targets — identifying where to course-correct and where to accelerate
  • Build and maintain internal tools that reduce manual work and improve data accuracy across the finance org

What You Need

  • 1–4 years in Investment Banking, Management Consulting, VC/PE, or Corporate Finance at a top-tier technology company
  • Excellent financial modeling and quantitative / data analysis skills
  • Extreme attention to detail with a high regard for precision
  • Exceptional verbal and written communication skills
  • Track record of developing and maintaining relationships with internal and external partners
  • A "get things done" mentality — you dissect complex problems, find solutions, and drive them to completion with a high degree of autonomy
  • Comfort operating in ambiguity and adapting to evolving priorities

Nice to Haves

  • Expertise with Looker, SQL, and/or Python
  • Systems thinking — you design processes to be reliable, scalable, and maintainable
  • Curiosity about AI tools — prior experience is a plus, but not required
