Role
Who you are
- Experience: 6+ years in Strategic Finance, Investment Banking, or FP&A, specifically within high-growth fintech or marketplace environments
- Modeling Mastery: Expert-level skills in 3-statement integrated modeling (P&L, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow)
- Technical Proficiency: Strong SQL skills and experience with data visualization tools (e.g., Looker, Tableau) to build automated "Source of Truth" dashboards
- Communication: Ability to distill complex financial concepts into actionable insights for non-finance executives
- Mindset: A "builder" mentality—you are comfortable doing the manual work in Q1 to build the automated systems needed for Q2 and beyond
What the job involves
- Burn Management: Own the monthly burn forecast and maintain a <5% variance as we drive toward our June 30th net-zero target
- Capacity Modeling: Develop and enforce ROI-based "Capacity Models" for every department to ensure headcount growth is strictly tied to revenue milestones
- Procurement & Efficiency: Act as the internal lead on vendor management, auditing SaaS and hardware spend to identify and eliminate "Software Bloat"
- Tier-1 Modeling: Build and maintain the sophisticated financial models required to defend a tech-marketplace valuation (LTV/CAC, GMV Sensitivity, and Auction Take-Rate)
- Capital Access: Lead the financial modeling and due diligence required to secure a new Venture Debt line and prepare the company for a successful Series C
- Investment Narrative: Translate complex internal data into clear financial narratives for the Board and prospective investors
- Audit Ownership: Take immediate ownership of the 2024 audit, resolving historical bottlenecks and ensuring the company is 100% "Due Diligence Ready."
- Data Integrity: Collaborate with Engineering and Product to automate financial reporting and ensure data consistency across the platform
- Risk Management: Evaluate financial exposure and implement the necessary internal controls to scale to 100+ employees
- Business Unit Support: Partner with our CEO and department heads to evaluate the ROI of new auction categories and marketplace initiatives
- Resource Allocation: Develop capital allocation frameworks to ensure every dollar spent maximizes marketplace GMV and long-term valuation
Our take
Increased interest in alternative assets has resulted in an unexpected boom in the collectables market, as more people are seeking to diversify their portfolios. Alt is a trading and portfolio management platform capitalizing on this exciting new upswing, making it simple to buy and sell investment-grade trading cards.
Initially dealing exclusively with sports cards, the company’s platform has expanded to include other trading card types, ranging from Pokémon to Yu-Gi-Oh! Alt sets itself apart from the competition by offering its users a vast range of attractive options, such as no buyer premiums, cash advances, Alt Vault card storage and borrowing options.
By tackling the three key problems hobbling the uptake of alternative asset investments (liquidity, price transparency, and physical storage) Alt’s success certainly opens the door for further expansion into different assets like art and sneakers, ushering in a new model for alternative asset markets.
