Sr Financial Analyst

What you'll do

As Sr. Financial Analyst, Corporate Finance & Strategy, you'll sit at the center of how Giga thinks about growth, capital, and long-range value creation. This isn't a reporting role — it's a seat at the table where real strategic decisions get made. You'll work directly with executive leadership to evaluate M&A opportunities, model capital structure scenarios, and build the financial narrative that guides how we allocate resources and communicate our story to the market. If you want to see the full picture of a high-growth infrastructure company and shape decisions that actually matter, this is that role.

Where you'll work

We are an in-office culture — velocity matters when you're building physical infrastructure, and the best decisions happen in the room. This role is ideally based in our San Francisco, Long Beach, or Houston offices, with full-time onsite expectations outside of bi-weekly WFH Fridays.

That said, we will make exceptions for truly exceptional talent if you live outside one of our hubs. If you're the right person for this role, we'll have a conversation about what works.

Responsibilities

• Lead corporate financial modeling efforts including long-range planning, scenario analysis, and valuation work to support executive and board-level decision-making.
• Drive strategic financial analysis for M&A, partnerships, and capital allocation decisions, including building and owning financial models from the ground up.
• Develop and maintain investor-ready materials including board presentations, investor decks, and financing memoranda.
• Partner with business unit leaders to evaluate ROI, unit economics, and strategic tradeoffs on major initiatives.
• Own competitive benchmarking and industry analysis to contextualize Giga's financial performance and positioning.
• Support fundraising, debt financing, and other capital markets activities as needed.
• Identify opportunities to improve financial processes, reporting systems, and analytical frameworks across the organization.

• Experience presenting to senior leadership or boards with confidence and clarity.
• Proficiency in Excel/Google Sheets; ability to build and own complex models independently.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills — you can explain numbers to people who don't speak finance.
• Bachelor's degree in Finance, Economics, Accounting, or a related field.

Bonus Points

• Experience in energy, infrastructure, data centers, or capital-intensive industries.
• Exposure to project finance, structured finance, or tax equity transactions.
