Job Description

Andromeda Robotics is hiring a Finance Manager to run day-to-day finance operations and build forecasting models for a humanoid companion robotics business.

Responsibilities

Own and maintain the corporate financial model, updating forecasts for revenue, headcount, cash burn, and runway.
Lead the annual and departmental budgeting cycles, partnering with team leads to define, monitor, and revise spending targets.
Develop scenario tools to stress-test decisions across pricing changes, unit economics, and new market expansions.
Model inventory and supply chain cash flows, including factory lead times, component costs, and minimum order quantities (MOQs) to reduce cash crunch risk.
Maintain accurate hardware unit economics by tracking the Bill of Materials (BOM), manufacturing variances, and gross margins.
Run monthly variance analysis, explaining differences between actual results and original budget targets.
Produce monthly management reports with financial trends, efficiency metrics, and risk areas.
Perform monthly funds flow and cash bridge analysis by mapping sources and uses of cash to reconcile net income to actual bank balances (including cash tied in inventory, factory deposits, and accounts receivable).
Translate complex datasets into clear financial dashboards that communicate business health.
Streamline core finance operations, including internal invoice approvals, expense management workflows, and vendor payments.
Lead evaluation, migration, and upgrades of the finance tech stack (connecting ERP/accounting systems with inventory management, billing engines, and expense platforms).
Implement AI-driven workflow automation for routine finance tasks such as automated invoice processing, contract data extraction, and preliminary variance analysis.
Build automated data pipelines to sync hardware fulfillment data with software subscription metrics, reducing manual spreadsheet updates.
Coordinate with external accounting partners in both operating countries (US and Australia) to support smooth monthly closings.

Requirements

4 to 6+ years in FP&A or corporate finance, with experience in a hardware, manufacturing, IoT, or physical product environment that includes a subscription component.
Exceptional financial modeling skills, including modeling inventory cycles, working capital, and blended hardware/software margins; ability to use Google Sheets.
Deep understanding of working capital mechanics, cash-versus-accrual adjustments, and cash flow modeling.
Proficiency in post-close analysis, variance tracking, and identifying operational inefficiencies using accounting data.
Hands-on experience building and optimizing internal tools for tracking expenses, vendor billing, and corporate spend.
Practical experience with modern AI tools or LLMs (for data analysis, code/formula generation, or text extraction) and AI-forward financial platforms to accelerate workflows.
Basic familiarity with multi-currency accounting or coordinating with external accounting partners.
Ownership: proactive, sees what is needed without waiting to be asked.
Comfort with ambiguity: can take open-ended, high-stakes requests and convert them into structured execution.
High agency, low ego: no task is beneath you; problems are not someone else’s.
Finisher mindset: closes the loop on details to prevent follow-ups related to missed items, stalled vendor threads, or supply reorder issues.
