Overview
 
This is an exciting opportunity to join Verkada’s Strategic Finance team and work with some of the brightest in the business. Strategic Finance team members are the “olympic decathletes” (exceptional across disciplines) who partner with the CFO and senior leadership to set and measure drivers for the business, engage investors and the board, solve diverse business operations problems, and implement operational projects at scale. As a member of this team, you will play a critical role in driving the strategy, insights, and financial modeling that enable the company to scale while also building critical relationships with cross functional teams to further enhance operational excellence.
