We believe in the power of automation and thoughtfully applied AI/ML to solve problems beyond the reach of human intuition alone. Osmo is headquartered in Elizabeth, NJ, with an additional office in Somerville, MA. Osmo is seeking a Finance & Operations Engineer to sit inside the Office of the CFO and own a broad mandate: financial rigor that keeps leadership informed and makes the company fundable, operational execution that keeps the organization running, and proactive partnership with business leaders who need a financially-minded counterpart they can trust and delegate to. This role covers the full range of FP&A responsibilities - modeling, reporting, budgeting, and business partnering - and is intentionally scoped for someone who sees the finance function as it's heading, not just as it's traditionally been. The person in this seat will take on significant delegated responsibility from the CFO and will bring a tech-forward, builder's instinct to how that work gets done.

FP&A and Financial Modeling Own the corporate financial model - maintain, update, and extend the long-range P&L, cash forecast, and scenario analyses that anchor business decisions Build and maintain department-level budgets; track actuals vs. plan monthly and surface variances with clear, decision-ready commentary Prepare board- and investor-facing financial materials - standalone slides, data room exhibits, and ad hoc analyses Support the month-end close process in partnership with the Controller; own financial reporting deliverables and the management reporting package Build models for one-off strategic decisions: make-vs-buy, pricing, headcount ROI, capital allocation, and partnership economics Design and maintain the data infrastructure that connects business systems to the corporate model; where manual bridges exist today, automate them Finance Engineering & Systems Treat the finance stack as something to improve, not just operate Identify where manual work, brittle processes, or data gaps exist and build solutions rather than waiting on engineering resources Build and maintain automations that reduce recurring time costs: reporting pipelines, reconciliation workflows, variance alerts, and close checklists Connect the finance team's tools & systems into coherent, reliable data flows the team can act on in real time Approach new AI capabilities with genuine curiosity and judgment: know what to build, what to buy, and what to leave alone Business Operations & Finance Business Partnering Serve as the finance team's primary point of contact for department heads and business leads - translate what the numbers mean in plain terms, surface the right questions, and help leaders make better decisions Partner with business units on budget planning and ongoing forecast updates; understand what's driving their spending, push back on weak assumptions, and keep plans financially grounded Own the variance narrative - when actuals diverge from plan, work with the relevant business leader to understand why and what it means, not just report the gap Take ownership of cross-functional projects that don't fit cleanly inside a single department; this role is the CFO's execution resource when something needs a financially-minded owner with the judgment to run it Maintain operational infrastructure that keeps the company running: vendor management, contract administration, compliance filings, and platform administration Identify and close operational gaps before they become problems - if something is broken or missing, fix it or flag it Investor & Leadership
