You will work directly with senior leaders across the company and have regular exposure to board and investor-level materials.

This role is well-suited to someone early in their career who is intellectually curious, operates with strong analytical rigor, and is energized by working at the intersection of science, technology, and business strategy.

• Produce clean, accurate outputs for leadership reviews and planning offsites

What You'll Need to Succeed

• Strong academic background; undergraduate degree from a rigorous institution required
• Exceptional analytical skills, including financial modeling, data synthesis, and structured problem framing
• Clear, concise written and verbal communication; ability to distill complex information into crisp outputs
• High degree of ownership and follow-through; this is a role for someone who runs things to completion without needing to be managed closely
• Comfort operating in ambiguous, fast-moving environments with shifting priorities

Bonus Points For

• Familiarity with OKR frameworks or enterprise planning processes
