Who we are

The real world is the next frontier, and at Metropolis, we are creating the artificial intelligence to make it responsive. We are pioneering the Recognition Economy — a future where mundane repetition disappears and being known unlocks access, comfort, and belonging everywhere you go. From transforming parking into a seamless drive-in, drive-out experience for millions of Members to expanding our intelligence layer across retail and hospitality, we are building a world that feels instinctive and magical. The future isn’t coming; it’s here, and we need builders, innovators, and problem solvers to help us create it.

Who you are

Metropolis is seeking a Senior Financial Analyst to serve as a key engine for our corporate finance function. You are a high-fidelity analytical thinker who thrives in the intersection of complex data and strategic storytelling. In this role, you will go beyond traditional reporting to act as a financial navigator, identifying trends and risks before they hit the ledger. You possess the technical rigor to build institutional-grade models and the communication prowess to influence stakeholders across our rapidly scaling organization.

What you'll do
  • Drive the end-to-end execution of monthly, quarterly, and annual forecasting cycles
  • Manage complex variance analysis (Actuals vs. Budget/Forecast) to provide the "why" behind the numbers, ensuring leadership has a pulse on fiscal health
  • Build and maintain sophisticated, dynamic financial models to support capital allocation, long-range planning, and ROI analysis for new market expansions and product launches
  • Act as a dedicated financial advisor to various business units, translating departmental performance into enterprise-level impact
  • Help stakeholders manage their OpEx and Headcount while maintaining alignment with company-wide profitability goals
  • Lead the preparation of board-ready reporting packages and internal management dashboards
  • Perform meticulous integrity checks to ensure our financial data remains the "single source of truth" for the organization
  • Continuously audit and refine financial workflows
  • Identify opportunities to automate manual processes, shorten month-end reporting cycles, and document Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) to support a world-class finance department
What we're looking for
  • 3+ years of progressive experience in Corporate Finance, FP&A, or Investment Banking, preferably within a high-growth technology, AI, or infrastructure-heavy environment
  • Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel (complex formulas, nested logic, macros) and experience with ERP/EPM systems (e.g., NetSuite, Adaptive Insights, or Anaplan)
  • Solid foundation in GAAP and advanced financial analysis, with the ability to deconstruct unit economics across diverse business lines by synthesizing massive, multi-faceted data sets into clear margin profiles
  • Proven ability to leverage generative AI and advanced data tools (e.g., LLMs, specialized financial AI agents, automated data analysis workflows) to accelerate financial modeling, synthesize market research, and automate routine reporting without sacrificing accuracy
  • Proven track record of moving beyond basic financial reporting to deliver forward-looking guidance by synthesizing data to explain the narrative behind the numbers and what to do next
  • Exceptional ability to distill granular data into clear, executive-level narratives while maintaining perfection regarding the visual presentation of data and accuracy of insights
  • Demonstrate a proactive, "no task too small" attitude with comfort in ambiguity and a proven track record of managing multiple high-priority deliverables under tight deadlines
While not required, these are a plus:
  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related quantitative field
  • MBA or CFA track

4 Days in Office: Metropolis values in-person collaboration to drive innovation, strengthen culture, and enhance the Member experience.
