As a Senior FP&A Analyst – Finance, Data & AI at Unusual Machines, you won’t just report on the business—you’ll help build the financial and data infrastructure that powers it. Sitting at the intersection of finance, data engineering, and AI, you will play a critical role in transforming how the company plans, analyzes, and makes decisions.

You’ll partner closely with leadership across operations, supply chain, and commercial teams to turn complex, fragmented data into clear, actionable direction.
This role is ideal for someone who is analytical and technically hands-on, but also naturally curious and forward-thinking. You’re excited about leveraging modern tools—especially AI—to rethink how finance operates in a fast-moving, systems-evolving environment.
