About Weights & Biases: At Weights & Biases, we are dedicated to creating the finest tools for AI developers. Our journey began with the realization that while developers had access to exceptional tools for coding, there was a lack of equally impressive tools for machine learning practitioners to enhance their models. From our initial experiment tracking product, we have evolved into a comprehensive AI developer platform tailored for organizations committed to developing their own deep learning models and generative AI applications.
As a Series C company, Weights & Biases has secured $250M in funding and boasts a workforce of over 200 employees. We are proud to support more than 1,000 clients, including over 30 foundational model creators such as OpenAI, NVIDIA, Microsoft, and Toyota.
Position Overview: Reporting directly to the CFO, the Senior Manager will play a pivotal role in delivering top-tier financial forecasting, planning, and reporting for the Go-to-Market organizations, which include Sales, Pre-and Post Sales, Business Development, and Professional Services. This role will involve evaluating and determining the overarching strategy for investments, headcount planning, targets, and compensation structures. The Senior Manager will collaborate closely with senior executives to forecast, plan, and analyze business activities, modeling key investments and their expected returns.
Key Responsibilities:
- Strategic Business Partnership: Integrate with Sales and the broader Revenue organizations to build trust and gain a deep understanding of the business dynamics, economics, and performance metrics.
- Financial Modeling: Create comprehensive models to analyze trends, identify key business drivers, and assess financial outcomes to inform investment decisions in collaboration with senior leadership.
- Marketing Spend Analysis: Provide insights on optimal marketing expenditure across various categories, develop profitability models for sales channels, geographical regions, and products, and leverage analysis results to guide future spending.
- Headcount and Compensation Planning: Assist in the planning and distribution of headcount and compensation, as well as the establishment of quarterly and annual targets.
- Ad-hoc Analysis: Conduct special projects and perform ad-hoc analyses to support strategic initiatives and business decisions.
Financial Planning and Reporting:
- Oversee the preparation of budgets, forecasts, and month-end reporting, along with operational and management reporting.
- Develop a monthly dashboard showcasing operating results, trends, and metrics for the executive team.
- Focus on identifying sources of variability, understanding underlying causes, and implementing data-driven improvements in forecasting.
- Prepare a consolidated go-to-market report in collaboration with other FP&A team members, including annual plans and quarterly re-plans.
Data Management and Process Optimization:
- Identify additional data requirements and streamline systems and processes to support an effective forecasting and planning framework.
- Collaborate with Accounting to ensure accurate and timely financial reporting during the monthly and quarterly cycles.
Team Leadership:
- Work closely with the Senior Manager of Marketing FP&A to provide comprehensive support to the entire Go-to-Market leadership team.
- Offer guidance and constructive feedback to other members of the FP&A team.
- Supervise an Associate on the team, focusing on coaching, development, and performance management.
Qualifications:
- A minimum of 4 years of post-MBA experience or 6+ years without an MBA in relevant financial reporting or analysis roles, demonstrating a successful track record in progressively responsible positions.
- Prior experience in go-to-market FP&A, particularly in Sales, Customer Success, or Professional Services, within an enterprise SaaS startup or a private equity-backed firm is essential. Experience in investment banking is preferred.
- Exceptional financial modeling capabilities and experience in leading complex quantitative analyses.
- Strong communication and presentation skills, with a proven ability to create and deliver impactful presentations to senior management.
- Able to thrive in a fast-paced, demanding environment, managing multiple tasks and adapting to shifting priorities.
Compensation: The US base pay for this position ranges from $152,000 to $210,000 annually, depending on geographic location and individual qualifications. Weights & Biases is committed to offering competitive salary, equity, and benefits packages for all full-time employees.
Diversity and Inclusion: We encourage applications from individuals with diverse backgrounds and experiences. We value creative perspectives and foster an inclusive environment where team members can learn and collaborate effectively. We are an equal opportunity employer and do not discriminate based on race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
