Your Role:

Reporting directly to the President, the Senior Manager, FP&A — Assistant to the President owns the company’s financial-planning function and serves as a strategic partner in the Office of the President. This is primarily an FP&A leadership role — owning the forecast, the budget, cash-runway, and the board-ready analysis that leadership relies on to allocate capital and steer the business through its transformation into robotics and embodied AI. This is a building role, not a reporting role: you will create the models, cadences, and dashboards from the ground up, with a genuine seat at the strategy table. We are specifically seeking a finance leader who has operated inside a robotics, EV, hardware, or advanced-manufacturing company and understands the economics of building physical products at scale.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Financial Planning & Analysis (core): Own the long-range plan, annual budget, and rolling forecasts across the P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow, along with the budget-vs-actual discipline that keeps the business on plan.
  • Financial Modeling: Build and maintain driver-based, three-statement models that tightly link operational drivers (units, program milestones, headcount, capex, BOM cost) to financial outputs; run scenario and sensitivity analysis.
  • Cash & Liquidity: Own cash-flow, liquidity, and runway forecasting to inform capital-allocation and financing decisions in a company that operates raise-to-raise.
  • Business Partnering: Partner with engineering, program management, operations, and supply chain to translate operational plans into financial plans; own unit economics, product/program-level P&L, cost-structure and margin analysis; lead headcount planning.
  • Office of the President (Assistant to the President): Serve as an analytical partner and sounding board to the President; lead board decks and preparation for quarterly earnings, IR, and leadership meetings; drive urgent, high-priority special projects end to end and follow up on execution of executive decisions.
  • Finance Systems & AI Transformation: Drive the company’s AI-powered finance transformation — evaluate, select, and implement modern financial software and AI tooling, and design automated, data-driven workflows that replace manual, one-off spreadsheets with reusable, system-based processes.
  • Accounting & Reporting (supporting): Partner with Accounting and outsourced providers on the monthly close (reconcile actuals to forecast, explain variances) and support SEC filings (10-K, 10-Q, 8-K), treasury/cash reporting, and technical accounting for complex transactions. This function feeds FP&A; it is not the core of the role.
  • Executive Reporting: Develop executive- and board-level reporting and turn complex results into a clear “so what” with recommended actions.

Basic Qualifications:

  • Education: Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related discipline required.
  • Industry Background (required): 6+ years in Corporate FP&A / Strategic Finance at a high-tech, advanced-manufacturing company that builds physical products at scale — ideally robotics / embodied AI, ranging out to EV / automotive, semiconductor, aerospace/defense, consumer electronics, or other capital-intensive hardware companies. A pure software / services (SaaS) FP&A background is not a fit on its own.
  • Experience: 6+ years of progressive finance experience with a strong FP&A core, including experience at a publicly listed (SEC-reporting) company and its board / earnings cadence.
  • Technical Skills: Expert three-statement and driver-based financial modeling; familiarity with modern financial software systems — cloud ERP / GL (NetSuite, Sage Intacct, Oracle Fusion, SAP, or Microsoft Dynamics 365), FP&A / planning platforms (Anaplan, Workday Adaptive Planning, Datarails, Vena, or Cube), close / reconciliation automation (FloQast or BlackLine), and SEC / disclosure tools (Workiva or DFIN ActiveDisclosure).
  • AI-Forward (priority): Demonstrated ability to drive AI-enabled finance transformation — hands-on experience selecting and implementing AI-powered finance software and building automated, AI-assisted workflows for planning, forecasting, close, or reporting. You don’t just use finance tools; you help build and modernize the finance tech stack.
  • Language: Professional working proficiency in both English and Mandarin Chinese (written and spoken) is required. This position is the communication bridge between the Company’s U.S. SEC / GAAP financial reporting and its Mandarin-speaking senior leadership, and requires preparing, presenting, and explaining financial and regulatory information accurately in both languages on a regular basis.
  • Communication: Exceptional executive communication and presentation skills; strong ownership and work ethic; discretion with confidential information.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Capital markets & liquidity: Fluency with equity financing (e.g., committed equity / ELOC, convertibles), cash-runway management, and going-concern / Nasdaq-compliance awareness at a transformation-stage company.
  • Background: Investment banking, strategy consulting, or Big 4 experience is a strong plus; MBA / CPA / CFA a plus.
  • AI finance tools: Experience with AI-forward finance tools (AI FP&A copilots, AP/close automation, or spend-management platforms such as Ramp/Brex).
  • Other: Exposure to digital assets, crypto treasury, or high-growth / transformation-stage companies.

Salary Range:

($140,000.00 – $180,000.00 DOE), plus benefits and incentive plans.

Perks + Benefits

  • Healthcare + dental + vision benefits (Free for you/discounted for family)
  • 401(k) options
  • Casual dress code + relaxed work environment
  • Culturally diverse, progressive atmosphere

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
