Sr. Financial Analyst / Manager - R&D Finance at Zapier

This role is designed for a high-level finance professional with at least 4 years of FP&A experience, specifically those coming from "Big 4" accounting, investment banking, or management consulting backgrounds. You are the ideal candidate if you possess a deep understanding of R&D cost structures and can translate complex technical engineering or infrastructure data into clear financial stories and boardroom-ready models. The role offers a highly competitive salary range ($119k–$178k) and the freedom of a fully remote setup within North American time zones. You’ll have significant ownership over high-stakes areas like cloud infrastructure economics (AWS) and AI investment ROI, putting you at the center of the company's strategic growth. Zapier’s culture also emphasizes an "AI-first" mindset, encouraging you to use and experiment with automation tools in your daily workflow. **You might be a good fit if you:** * Have experience modeling complex R&D or SaaS infrastructure costs (like AWS usage). * Are a "truth-seeker" who enjoys diving into data and potentially using SQL to find answers. * Can manage a process from A-Z, moving from initial scoping to high-level executive presentation. * Are comfortable with ambiguity and want to help define the financial strategy for AI integration.
