Employer immigration record

from this employer's Department of Labor filings

Files H-1B transfers

4 transfer filings in the last year, covering 4 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 7 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.

Sourced from Department of Labor LCA, PERM and prevailing-wage disclosure data. Employer matching is by name, so figures may be split across an employer's legal entities. Absence of a filing means none appears in our copy of the data, not that none exists.

About the role

  • This is a lean, high-leverage role built for someone who wants to stay close to the work.
  • You'll run a small, fast-moving team and lean heavily on AI to extend what the team can do.
  • At a moment when FP&A is being reinvented at the best companies in the world, you'll be the one doing the reinventing here.

Responsibilities

  • Own long-range strategic planning.
  • Own the company-wide planning and forecasting process and rebuild it for the AI era.
  • Drive interactive, real-time scenario modeling.
  • Enable R&D, GTM, and G&A leaders to answer their own financial questions through natural language interfaces and live dashboards - reducing FP&A's role as a data provider and expanding its role as a strategic advisor.
  • Partner cross-functionally with R&D, GTM, and G&A leadership. Build a business partnering model that is rigorous, trusted, and powered by real-time data, not last month's numbers
  • Assess honestly where the team's time is going to work that AI should own.
  • Build strong relationships with the CFO, the Executive Leadership team, and your team.
  • By 60 Days: Establish yourself as a trusted partner with a clear-eyed diagnosis of planning process, forecasting cadence, data architecture, and AI readiness.
  • By 90 Days: Deliver an AI-Native FP&A Transformation Roadmap, a Data & Metrics Foundation Plan, a redesigned Planning & Forecasting process, and a long-range strategic financial model supporting the company's next phase of growth.
  • Fluency with recurring and consumption-based revenue models and the metrics that drive them - ARR, net and gross retention, cohort economics, payback - or clear evidence you'll get there fast.

Requirements

  • Leverage AI to accelerate narrative generation and scenario modeling, while ensuring every output reflects the precision and credibility required for a public company audience
  • 8+ years of progressive experience in finance, spanning investment banking, private equity, and/or FP&A at a high-growth company, with a strong foundation in financial modeling and analysis.
  • We're open to candidates earlier in their career with particularly strong investment banking or transaction experience, provided they bring exceptional modeling speed and fluency with modern AI tools.
  • A track record of driving AI or technology-led transformation of a finance function.

  • You'll partner closely with our Data & Applied AI team, who will build and maintain the technical infrastructure behind these AI-native workflows.
