Sr. Financial Analyst, GTM

Category-defining tech. Career-defining work.

The Role

We're looking for a Senior FP&A Analyst, GTM to be a strategic analytical partner to our Go-To-Market organization. You'll take on meaningful ownership from day one — driving financial planning, reporting, and analysis across GTM functions with direct exposure to senior leaders and real influence over how we invest in revenue growth. You'll operate with high independence, collaborate closely with business partners, and bring a data-driven mindset and eagerness to apply AI to how modern finance gets done. This is an instrumental hire at a high-growth company with significant opportunity to grow.

The Expectations

In your first 30 days, you will develop a strong understanding of our GTM financial processes, systems, and organizational structure.

In your first 60 days, you will have a solid grasp of how Cockroach Labs operates and the key drivers of our GTM business. You will start contributing meaningfully to reporting and analysis, and identify early opportunities to improve processes or add analytical depth.
