Job Description:

As a Strategic Finance Associate at Solace, you’ll be the finance team’s high-output utility player. You’ll be the one we trust to take ambiguous, high-priority problems and turn them into clean answers, shipped deliverables, and real momentum. One week you’re building a model to evaluate a new initiative. The next you’re tightening reporting for investors. Then you’re partnering with operations to diagnose a unit economics drift that nobody else has fully clocked yet. Yyou’ll support whatever the finance org needs most, and you’ll learn the business faster than you thought was possible because you’ll be in the middle of everything. This individual contributor role is for the ambitious, the curious, and those who don’t shy away from feedback. This is a unique opportunity as an early Strategic Finance hire, with direct visibility to our CFO.

Job Responsibility:

Strategic Analysis & Modeling: Build models to evaluate new products, pricing, partnerships, and operational initiatives
Finance "Special Projects": Take on whatever is highest priority across the finance org—ad hoc analysis, process fixes, investor asks, diligence support, and internal tooling
Performance & KPI Reporting: Help maintain the reporting cadence across key business metrics—revenue, gross margin, unit economics, burn/runway, and operational performance
Cross-Functional Problem Solving: Partner with leaders across Solace to answer questions
Board & Investor Support: Support board materials, investor updates, and fundraising/diligence workflows
Accounting & Close Partnership: Work alongside our outsourced accounting firm and internal stakeholders to support close-related requests, reporting integrity, and clean handoffs between accounting and finance
Automation & Systems: Build lightweight automation into finance workflows

Requirements:

2+ years of relevant experience in Investment Banking, Consulting, Private Equity, corporate strategy, or Strategic Finance at a high-performance startup (or equivalent)
Applicants must be based in the United States
A bias toward action and execution
Comfort with ambiguity and a refined palate for controlled chaos
Strong analytical skills
Great communication
High ownership and low ego
