About The Role 

As a Strategic Finance Senior Associate, you will own the company’s end-to-end revenue forecast as we scale. You will model a dynamic revenue base shaped by customer usage, new GPU deployments, product mix, and other key business drivers, translating these inputs into actionable insights for leadership. Beyond forecasting, you will proactively identify opportunities to accelerate revenue growth and improve business performance. You will serve as a strategic thought partner to teams across the company, including GTM, Product, and Infrastructure Engineering, helping to evaluate tradeoffs and drive execution against Together’s growth priorities.

This is a hands-on, high ownership role. You will be part of a lean Strategic Finance team, with the opportunity to help drive strategic initiatives across the business as well as shape the strategic finance function of a rapidly growing AI infrastructure startup. 

Responsibilities

Own the revenue model and forecast across sales-led and self-serve motions, partnerships, new business, renewals, churn, and new hardware deployments - spanning both committed contracts and consumption/usage-based revenue

Prepare clear, concise analyses and reporting for leadership on revenue performance, forecast risk, and the drivers behind variances

Build expertise to deeply understand the company's product offerings, product portfolio and associated nuances

Go beyond reporting the number: proactively identify levers to grow revenue and work with Product, GTM, and Infrastructure Engineering to execute them

Assist with long-range planning (LRP) and building the company's overall financial strategy.

Build repeatable processes and tooling (dashboards, models, reconciliations) that make revenue forecasting faster and more reliable each quarter

Be ready to roll up your sleeves and assist with other strategic finance initiatives and priorities to drive business impact and help the company grow

Requirements

2 – 4 years of experience, ideally 2 years in investment banking or consulting paired with 1 – 2 years in private equity, growth equity, or venture capital; strategic finance or FP&A experience at a high-growth company is also a strong fit

Exceptional financial modeling skills and close attention to detail, with the discipline to build models that are auditable and the instinct to catch errors before they reach leadership

Advanced Excel / Google Sheets skills; familiarity with SQL is a plus

Ability to build relationships with cross-functional partners in GTM, Infrastructure Engineering, and Product

Exceptional business judgment and intuition, with the creativity and problem-solving instincts to tackle novel questions where there is no established playbook

Strong work ethic and self-directed, with the ability to manage multiple workstreams under tight timelines 

Experience with usage-based or consumption revenue models is a plus
