Who You Are

• 1–5 years in investment banking, private equity, or strategic finance at a top-tier startup.
• Mastery with Excel and Google Sheets. You can build a highly legible three-statement model, and you can layer in scenario modeling to answer urgent questions.
• Detail-obsessed. You believe formatting is a tool for cross-functional communication, not a chore. You sweat the small stuff because small mistakes can compound.
• High horsepower. You dive in head first, whether it’s a one-page memo for the CEO, a slide for the Board, or an offer package for a new hire.
• Urgency. You don't wait for directions—you figure things out. You create your own urgency, whether it is because the status quo frustrates you or because you see the path to a better end state.
• Generalist by instinct. You enjoy a wide problem space. You apply first principles across finance, hiring, contracts, and ops because the underlying skill is the same: think clearly, move fast, get to the answer.
• In-person builder. You want to spend your career around kind and smart people—refining your craft while advancing a critical mission.

Nice to Have

• Prior background or interest in software, AI, cyber, defense, or intelligence.
• AI Pilled. Daily ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini user. Use Claude Code or Cowork, Rogo, Hebbia, or equivalent AI tools. You see agents as the way to automate routine tasks and as the future of work.
• Sense of Humor. Nano Banana image generation ability.
