About the role
- We are looking for an FP&A Analyst who is sharp, resourceful, and genuinely comfortable using AI as a daily work tool.
- This is not a role for someone who waits to be directed.
- We also value candidates who embrace AI as a standard part of modern finance work.
Responsibilities
- Working capital and cash flow: building and maintaining dynamic working capital forecasts that tie to operational assumptions
- Ad hoc executive support: rapid-turnaround analyses and summary documents when leadership needs answers fast
- This includes drafting summaries, building and refining model logic, transforming data, writing documentation, and producing presentation-ready outputs.
- We are trusted partners to the business, providing accurate forecasting, insightful analysis, and clear communication of financial performance.
- You will own models, build outputs, field questions from the business, and figure things out independently.
Requirements
- Comfort with using AI to enhance your work is essential to success in this role.
- 2-4 years of experience in SaaS FP&A, preferably with experience working on the three statements.

- Technical Proficiency:
Nice to have
- familiarity with BI tools (Looker, Tableau, or similar), SQL, or financial systems (NetSuite, Hubspot, Salesforce)
Skills
- You can work backward from a business question to a model structure, not just fill in pre-built templates
- Strong instincts for what matters - you surface the insight, not just the output
- Communication and Collaboration:
- Clear, concise written communication. You can turn a model into a one-page executive summary without losing the substance
- Able to present findings to senior stakeholders, including the CFO, without requiring heavy pre-prep or hand-holding
- You ask sharp clarifying questions before going deep on the wrong thing
- Mindset and Ownership:
- Resourceful by default - when you hit a wall, you find a way around it
- You take ownership of your work and hold yourself to a high standard of accuracy
- Resilient under deadline pressure; you can prioritize competing asks without losing quality
- Interview Process
- Round 1: 30 minute Google Meet discussion with the Head of FP&A: Shane Tjin https://www.linkedin.com/in/hypergrowth/.

Benefits
- Our technology spans various sectors, from healthcare to education, simplifying the complex process of app development related to communications.
- The Finance team plays a vital role in shaping the financial health and strategic direction of Nylas.
- Educational and Professional Background:
Company info

- Variance analysis: budget vs. actual, period-over-period, and narrative commentary for exec and board audiences
- How You'll Work
- In this role, you'll be expected to leverage AI tools as a core part of your workflow to improve speed, quality, and impact.
- What You Must Bring
- 2-4 years of experience in SaaS FP&A, preferably with experience working on the three statements. You've worked closely with department leads, built models to support decision-making, and are comfortable owning planning cycles end-to-end.
