Company mission

Fivetran's mission is to solve the hardest part of building a data-driven company: centralising all your data in one place.

Role

Who you are

  • 2-6 years of experience in finance, public accounting, or investment banking; familiarity with SaaS preferred
  • Strong analytical, organizational, and collaboration skills
  • Proficiency in Excel / Google Sheets; ability to manage large datasets and driver-based models
  • Curiosity to learn and solve problems independently in a fast-paced, high-growth environment

What the job involves

  • Fivetran is building data pipelines to power the modern data stack for thousands of companies
  • We’re looking for a Strategic Finance Analyst, R&D to join our growing FP&A team
  • This role requires a well-rounded individual who has demonstrated the ability to deliver results in a high-growth, dynamic, and fast-paced environment
  • In this role, you will drive value and empower decision making through data, reporting, and analyses that impact Fivetran’s success as a company
  • Act as a strategic partner to R&D and Finance leadership, providing insights and recommendations for optimizing investment and driving long-term growth
  • Enhance forecast accuracy and reliability for R&D expenses
  • Lead variance analyses during financial closes to provide actionable insights
  • Develop and streamline processes to scale systems and support business growth
  • Serve as a liaison between finance, accounting, and R&D operations to enhance and automate financial processes

Our take

After a few slower years since graduating from Y Combinator in 2013, Fivetran has skyrocketed, consistently raising large sums of funding, including an Andreessen Horowitz-backed $565m Series D round in 2021.

Customers are mostly data analysts at companies with inefficient database schema, who suffer from a high risk of project failures. Fivetran offers rapid integration of complex data services into cloud warehouses, tagging onto the trend towards cloud-based data systems.

By developing and continuously improving cloud applications that adapt to changing APIs and data schemas, Fivetran is attracting customers who seek long-term data viability. Fivetran also benefits from being easy to set up and integrate into a client's existing software.

After acquiring HVR, a data integration competitor, and Teleport Data, Fivetran continues to add functionality and customers via acquisition. A round of funding in 2023 paved the way for expansion into European and Asian markets.
