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

  • Strategic Finance is a small, high-leverage team that works directly with TRM's leadership on planning, investment decisions, and company-wide strategy.
  • Our job isn't just to explain the numbers.
  • You'll have substantial ownership from day one, direct exposure to the CTO and executive team, and room to shape how R&D finance operates.

Responsibilities

  • Our job isn't just to explain the numbers. We collaborate with leaders to make better decisions, and we hold a high bar for rigor and trust in our work.
  • Our process is designed to understand how you think, solve problems, and deliver impact, while allowing you to evaluate TRM.
  • Welcome to TRM: We're excited to build a safer world with you!
  • We are building a safer world.
  • This environment is energizing for people who enjoy building, solving hard problems, and making progress in situations that are not always fully defined.
  • We balance speed with high standards, own outcomes end‑to‑end, and invest in getting better everyday.

Requirements

  • 7+ years across strategic finance, FP&A, business operations, or a related role.
  • Hands-on experience analyzing cloud, compute, AI, or other usage-based technology costs, and experience partnering with Engineering, Product, Data, AI, or Infrastructure leaders.
  • Applied AI fluency: you can show how you've used AI to improve the speed or quality of modeling, research, or recurring workflows, and how you check the reliability of its output.
  • Operating with a high degree of ambiguity

Nice to have

  • Regular working sessions with the CTO and R&D leaders, plus a monthly R&D cost and forecast review.
  • Slack and Notion for async updates

Skills

  • Rebuild R&D finance around AI, automation, and Pigment so more time goes to shaping decisions and less to assembling reports.
  • Most interview processes include a case study, an AI skills assessment, and a Leadership Principles interview.
  • Hiring Manager: Deep dive into your relevant experience, skills, and impact.

Compensation

  • Quarterly planning with Talent and R&D on headcount capacity, and annual planning cycles in Pigment.

Company info

  • The role is built to scale with its owner. Using AI and automation, you can expand what one person owns, and as the mandate grows there may be an opportunity to build a team.
  • Team Operating Rhythms:
  • We're distributed, not distant: written communication for clarity and context, live time for decisions and collaboration.
  • Quarterly planning with Talent and R&D on headcount capacity, and annual planning cycles in Pigment.
  • Slack and Notion for async updates; AI tools are part of the daily workflow.
  • Learn about TRM Speed in this position:
  • Within your first 30 days, deliver an initial AI-assisted cloud forecast, focused on GCP with AWS coverage as applicable, that gives R&D leaders their first driver-based view of where infrastructure spend is heading.
  • Within your first 60 days, put a defined AI spend strategy in front of the CTO, with a clear recommendation on where to commit, consolidate, or cut.
  • Within your first 90 days, have the R&D capacity model integrated into the planning process so hiring decisions and budget move together.
  • If you're interested in joining TRM, we encourage you to apply directly.
