Role
Who you are
- Bachelor's degree in related area and 3-5 years of experience in management consulting, investment banking, strategic finance, or comparable real estate investment roles
- Exceptional financial modeling and analytical skills: you’re comfortable working with large datasets both in spreadsheets and in databases
- SQL skills required: you will need to be capable enough to hold your weight and not be dependent on your Data teammates for impact
- Passion for data: you're excited by the opportunity to sit within our Data team, ramp up your data skillset, and adopt new approaches to finance workflows
- Business judgement: you have strong intuition when it comes to making judgement calls or generating reasonable assumptions on the fly
- Strong synthesis skills: you have the ability to stitch together cohesive narratives and generate actionable insights from large pools of messy data with potentially contradictory signals
- Client/customer-facing: you’re comfortable engaging directly with external partners, property owners, and investors. You bring professionalism, polish, and strong communication skills to high-stakes conversations and presentations
- We understand that there's no such thing as a 'perfect' candidate. We're looking for someone passionate, with grit and determination, who is excited to face the challenges of a rapidly growing startup. AirGarage is the type of company where you can grow exponentially, and we encourage you to apply to us even if you don't 100% match the candidate description
What the job involves
- We're looking for a data-savvy Strategic Finance Analyst to convert our data capabilities into real impact across the business
- You'll join our Data team where you will leverage industry-leading intelligence on parking properties to plan and execute plays for the business
- This could involve leading creative GTM experiments, exploring acquisitions, identifying revenue growth levers, etc
- Your north star objective will be to help the business realize value from its competitive advantage in data, whatever form that may take
- While you explore and pursue various strategic bets, your Data teammates will be focused on enabling you with the superpowers you will need to be successful
- It’s important to note that this will not look like a ‘typical’ finance role
- We expect you to be a scrappy operator, not just a high-level thinker
- Most of the time you will not be given ready-to-use datasets, you will be writing the SQL to arm yourself with the data you need
- While you should be a spreadsheet expert, that should not be your only or default mode of operating
- We are building a Data team of the future where both capability-building and business impact is our responsibility, so if being part of a team like that gets you excited we’d love to meet you
- Underwrite parking properties: Analyze historical financials and forecast future financial performance for parking properties to determine investment viability
- Conduct real estate due diligence: Evaluate property risks, contract terms, and operational considerations before acquisition or partnership decisions
- Collaborate with external stakeholders: Engage directly with real estate executives and investment professionals, oftentimes discussing data-dense models
- Deliver feedback to Data team: Communicate gaps or opportunities in the data and tools you leverage in your work to spin our self-improvement flywheel
- Explore the frontier of real estate data: Identify innovative ways to leverage parking and real estate datasets to create competitive advantages and new business opportunities
- Perform company-level forecasting: Generate scenarios and projections that model company growth
- Investor and board reporting: Prepare polished, data-driven analyses that get included in investor-facing and board-facing materials
Our take
The parking industry has long adhered to traditional practices, relying on attendants and disparate payment and management systems. However, AirGarage is changing the landscape by providing software and management services to parking lot and garage owners. With its all-encompassing approach spanning from signage installation to payment handling and even parking enforcement.
One of AirGarage's key innovations is its revenue-sharing model, offering property owners a favorable 70-30 split and full transparency on earnings. This approach addresses the longstanding issue of parking managers reaping their share of revenue, leaving property owners with just a fraction of the income generated by their spaces. With over 300 locations across 38 US states under its management, AirGarage has become a pivotal player in reshaping the parking industry.
In 2025, the company closed its Series B funding round. That capital injection has gone towards scaling its platform and finetuning its data infrastructure. It not only caters to personal vehicle parking but also accommodates food trucks and cloud kitchens in need of parking and storage solutions. The future looks promising for AirGarage as it continues to modernize and streamline an industry ripe for technological transformation.
