About The Position

As a Senior Financial Analyst, FP&A at Biofire, you will play a pivotal role in owning and maintaining Biofire's forward-looking financial picture — including the investor model and operational budget model — keeping them always current and accurate. We are looking for someone who is analytically rigorous, operationally curious, and highly autonomous to contribute to our Financial Operations team and help give leadership a real-time, reliable view of the company's financial trajectory. To succeed you will need to be able to build, maintain, and continuously refine financial models that accurately reflect the business, investigate variances independently, and deliver insights with context and narrative. You will need to be a self-driven analytical thinker, who is eager to take full ownership of Biofire's FP&A function and turn financial data into actionable intelligence for decision-making. If you're excited about helping to solve mission-critical challenges, we encourage you to apply.

Demonstrated experience building and maintaining driver-based financial models that reflect operational realities — not just financial formulas
Proficiency with FP&A platforms (e.g., Abacum, Adaptive, Anaplan) and advanced Excel; experience with data platforms (e.g., Palantir Foundry) is a plus
Strong business intuition and the ability to distinguish material variances from noise, investigate root causes, and communicate findings with context
Track record of working cross-functionally with non-finance stakeholders to collect data and build productive working relationships

Responsibilities

Own and maintain both the investor model and the operational budget model, ensuring neither is ever more than one week stale with the latest actuals and updated forecast assumptions.
Investigate budget-to-actual variances independently — including going directly to department leads to understand drivers — and surface findings with context and narrative to the CFO.
Build and operate department-level budget vs. actuals dashboards in Abacum so department leads can self-serve their budget position without requesting reports from finance.
Migrate the investor model into Abacum (or equivalent integrated platform) so that both models share a single source of assumptions, eliminating the risk of inconsistent financial stories.
Own the full data pipeline feeding the financial models — including Light, Palantir Foundry, and Abacum connections — diagnosing and resolving issues to ensure uninterrupted data flow.
