Financial Planning & Analysis Manager
On-site · Austin, Texas, United States
Job Summary
Financial Planning & Analysis Manager responsible for owning and maintaining unit economics models (construction cost forecasts, capital deployment schedules, contingency tracking, long-term return metrics), translating model outputs into clear decision-ready analysis for the CEO, investors, and board, and building internal budget frameworks as the company moves from development to active project execution. Collaborates with business development to ensure model assumptions reflect current commercial, regulatory, and procurement realities. Supports ad hoc financial analysis for strategic decisions (contracting, procurement, capital allocation) and prepares financial summaries and scenario analyses for leadership. Lays groundwork for a formal FP&A function as the project portfolio grows. Requires strong financial modeling, knowledge of project finance concepts (IRR, NPV, construction draws, contingency management), and ability to communicate complex economics to non-finance leadership. Exposure to DOE loan programs/ATVM is a plus and NetSuite experience is preferred.

- Strong communicator who can translate model outputs into clear narratives for non-finance leadership
- Exposure to DOE loan programs, ATVM, or federal energy project financing structures is a plus
