FP&A Lead / Strategic Finance

AnySignal
Los Angeles, CA Full Time
POSTED ON 12/29/2025 CLOSED ON 1/14/2026

What are the responsibilities and job description for the FP&A Lead / Strategic Finance position at AnySignal?

AnySignal is a startup whose mission is to usher in the next generation of RF products and services. For the most demanding space and defense missions, AnySignal provides a flexible platform with world-class performance that is easy to deploy, monitor, purchase, and upgrade.


Our team has a diverse range of backgrounds that cover cloud computing to communications and sensing, embedded systems, and much more.


We’re seeking a highly analytical, execution-focused FP&A Manager to join our lean, high-impact finance team at AnySignal. In this role, you will own financial planning, reporting, and visibility across a rapidly scaling company operating in complex, capital-intensive environments. You’ll lead budgeting, forecasting, and performance management processes that enable fast, confident decisions by our leadership team and Board of Directors. This is not a “sit-back-and-report” role — you will build systems, models, and processes from the ground up. We’re looking for someone who can dive deep, operate with incomplete information, and help shape the financial backbone of a company scaling quickly with increasing operational and reporting complexity.

Preferred Experience
  • Experience supporting investor and board-level reporting
  • Exposure to early-stage or scaling operational environments
  • Experience improving financial systems, data quality, and reporting infrastructure
