About the role
The Finance team at Blockstream plays an integral part in scaling the world's leading Bitcoin infrastructure company. We're looking for a highly motivated Senior Financial Analyst to join our team with a key role in driving financial strategy across our Consumer Products and Enterprise Solutions divisions. You will partner with business leaders across the company to drive strategic decision-making through financial insights and analysis. If you love data, building models, and acting as a translator between technical and business teams, this could be the perfect opportunity.
Responsibilities
- Strategic Finance & Planning
- Lead rolling forecasts, annual planning, and scenario modeling across Consumer Products and Enterprise Solutions
- Build and maintain financial models for fundraising, M&A evaluation, and strategic decision-making
- Own board materials and investor reporting — translating unit economics, KPIs, and Bitcoin-native metrics into clear, compelling narratives
- Drive monthly business reviews with the executive team; be the connective tissue between Finance and Product, Engineering, and Business Development
- AI-Native Operations
- Design and deploy AI-assisted workflows that automate recurring FP&A processes — variance analysis, forecast refreshes, reporting packages — using Claude, GPT, Gemini, or equivalent
- Identify where LLMs can replace low-value analytical labor and build the infrastructure to make that permanent
- Business Partnership
- Partner with business unit leaders to analyze ROI on infrastructure investments and new product initiatives
- Develop pricing frameworks for crypto services, custody solutions, and consumer hardware
- Translate on-chain data alongside traditional financials into insights that drive operating decisions
Requirements
- 4–7+ years in Strategic Finance, FP&A, Corporate Finance, or Investment Banking
- Demonstrated experience using AI tools (Claude, GPT, Gemini) to automate or accelerate financial analysis workflows, not just as a chat interface, but as an operational layer
- Advanced financial modeling in Excel or Google Sheets; ability to build dynamic, scenario-driven models from scratch
- Exceptional communication skills — you can write a board narrative and present to a CFO without hand-holding
- Highly organized; capable of managing competing priorities in a fast-moving environment
- Understanding of Bitcoin fundamentals and cryptocurrency markets
Qualifications
- Hands-on experience with workflow automation tools (n8n, Zapier, Make) or LLM API integration
- Familiarity with SQL or Python, not required, but useful for validating AI-generated outputs
- Experience with ERP or BI platforms (NetSuite, Looker, Tableau)
- CFA or MBA
- Background in Bitcoin, crypto, or high-growth fintech
- Experience at a startup
Pay
The salary range for this role is $120,000 – $150,000 USD, depending on skills and experience.
