  • Review actual spend against forecast on a recurring basis, identifying variances and driving root-cause analysis
  • Identify anomalies in complex invoice workflows (e.g., OEM parts, depot services, insurance, maintenance) and resolve discrepancies cross-functionally
  • Build and maintain dashboards, reports, and tracking mechanisms that give leadership real-time visibility into fleet health and financial performance
  • Drive and support automation of manual processes.
  • Develop business processes  to achieve financial goals.
  • Work on ad hoc strategic and operational projects as needed.
• Month-End Close & Financial Operations
  • Support month-end close deliverables including fleet/operational reporting, accruals, reconciliations, and variance analysis
  • Partner with FP&A, Treasury, and Accounting to ensure accurate and timely financial reporting
  • Develop and document standard operating procedures for recurring financial and operational workflows

  • Support the financial and operational buildout of Flexdrive’s AV fleet management infrastructure as we scale deployments with partners
  • Develop cost-per-mile models, depot cost analyses, and unit economics frameworks for AV operations
  • Collaborate with Strategy, Infrastructure, and Fleet Ops teams to translate AV deployment plans into financial projections
• Cross-Functional Partnership
  • Serve as the connective tissue between Business Operations, Finance, Fleet Operations, and external partners
  • Partner with cross-functional stakeholders to drive operational efficiency, cost optimization, and process improvement
  • Communicate financial insights and recommendations clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences
