Senior Financial Analyst, Inbound Operations Finance

Join our team supporting finance operations and technology transformation within the IXD+ network. You will use data analytics, AI tools, and financial fundamentals to support standardization and automation across finance processes, contributing to efforts that reduce manual work by 40-50%. This role offers an opportunity to participate in transforming traditional financial reporting through AI-enabled automation while delivering insights that help optimize supply chain operations.

About the role

In this position, you will support the development of scalable financial controllership frameworks that grow independently of building count and enable the transformation from a site-centric to hub-based structure. You'll analyze operational metrics to produce financial insights, help balance standardization with network-specific needs, and execute on AI-enabled finance transformation initiatives that have tangible business impact. If you thrive in an environment where speed matters and continuous improvement is expected, this role offers a strong foundation in strategic finance with hands-on tactical execution.

Responsibilities

• Analyze operational data to surface financial insights that support cost optimization and business performance, leveraging Amazon's established financial processes, internal controls, and existing tools within defined frameworks.

• Support operations teams in validating business case assumptions, tracking performance metrics, and executing on automated reporting systems that reduce manual work by 40-50%.
• Investigate data discrepancies and execute fixes to ensure reporting accuracy, flagging risks and recommending improvements to remediate gaps in financial controls.
• Work with cross-functional partners in finance, operations, supply chain, and technology to contribute to standardized processes and financial playbooks that scale independently of building count.

Throughout the day, you'll partner with operations teams to validate business assumptions, contribute to automated reporting systems, and participate in cross-functional councils where you'll provide financial perspectives on strategic operational decisions. You'll balance your analytical work with collaborative sessions, driving data quality improvements and system integration while validating productivity metrics.
