It’s Day 1 for Amazon’s next billion dollar business and we are looking for an entrepreneurial minded Finance Manager to work in a start-up environment who is passionate about technology, is interested in analyzing new business opportunities, who thinks/acts globally, and has the ability to create and implement solutions to business questions.
The successful candidate will be entrepreneurial by nature, a strategic thinker, analytical in approach, have a demonstrated ability to develop financial models that provide intelligence for business decisions. This role requires a self-starter with superb business modeling skills, a keen attention to detail, and ability to work in a fast-paced environment.
Finance Manager in Biz Ops Finance org. will support Senior Manager and Director in defining the Business Assurance strategy and implementation of Business Assurance controls across the Kuiper work streams. The Finance Manager is also responsible for tracking and holding the business partners accountable for performance against the OP and R&O plans and providing insights on drivers for variances. This requires the Finance Manager to exercise Financial Controllership and develop actionable analysis of the financial impact of changing business needs. This requires the role to Dive Deep and index strongly on Are Right, A Lot.
Key job responsibilities
The Finance Manager will own and scale Business Assurance capabilities across revenue, cost, and end-to-end business processes, combining financial analysis, controllership, data, automation, and cross-functional execution to protect financial outcomes and identify opportunities to improve margins.
Own Revenue & Cost Assurance: Analyze end-to-end revenue and cost flows to identify leakage, financial risks, control gaps, and margin improvement opportunities. Develop and operate preventive and detective controls that improve financial accuracy and strengthen controllership.
Lead Financial Analytics & Opportunity Identification: Extract and analyze financial and operational data to identify anomalies, trends, revenue opportunities, cost inefficiencies, and opportunities to improve business performance.
Develop and Scale Assurance Controls: Design, implement, validate, and continuously improve revenue and cost assurance audits, controls, risk indicators, and monitoring mechanisms. Lead discrepancy investigation, root-cause analysis, remediation, and reporting.
Support Product and Business Launches: Represent Business Assurance in enterprise initiatives from feasibility and requirements definition through implementation and post-launch validation. Assess financial risks, define control requirements, validate system and transaction flows, and ensure financial requirements are incorporated into product design.
Evaluate Offers and Business Initiatives: Partner with Product, Marketing, Finance, and Business teams to evaluate new offers, pricing, promotions, and business models for financial and operational risks. Perform post-launch analysis to validate implementation accuracy, financial outcomes, and underlying business-case assumptions.
Drive Process Improvement: Review existing business and financial processes, identify control and operational gaps, and work with cross-functional partners to prioritize and implement scalable improvements.
Own Productionization & Adoption: Take Agenting AI capabilities from prototypes to supported, documented, reusable products. Own rollout, onboarding, adoption, operating mechanisms, and long-term sustainability so capabilities continue to scale beyond their original creators.
Strengthen the Data Foundation: Partner with Data Engineering, BIEs, and Finance teams to establish reliable and curated data feeds supporting management reporting, strategic insights, and assurance detection. Establish standards for data quality, lineage, access, reconciliation, and monitoring.
Automate Business Assurance Operations: Build agentic workflows, automated monitoring, dashboards, status mechanisms, and escalation processes that reduce manual coordination and investigation. Apply AI and automation to improve detection, investigation, reporting, and operational efficiency.
Establish Horizontal Standards: Define reusable standards for assurance controls, data quality, governance, detection logic, reporting, and productization that can be adopted across BizOps areas including Customer Support, Field Services, Supply Chain, Delivery, and GTM.
Serve as the Cross-Functional Connector: Bring together Finance, Accounting, Product, Engineering, Data/Science, Business Operations, and external partners to eliminate silos, resolve dependencies, and establish common financial metrics, controls, and detection logic.
Lead and Develop the Business Assurance Squad: Work alongside BIEs and other technical resources embedded within Business Assurance, establish engineering and delivery patterns, prioritize the roadmap, mentor team members, and build capabilities that enable the organization to operate at scale.
Communicate Insights and Influence Decisions: Document and present audit results, financial analyses, risks, root causes, recommendations, and business opportunities to Finance and business leadership. Translate complex financial and operational findings into clear actions and measurable outcomes.
