Gimlet is building a multi-silicon neocloud platform optimized for fast, efficient AI inference. The company combines large-scale compute infrastructure with an execution platform that partitions AI workloads and maps each stage to the hardware best suited to run it. Gimlet works with foundation labs, hyperscalers, and AI-native companies on frontier models, production infrastructure, and emerging hardware challenges.
As FP&A Manager, Infrastructure & Corporate, you will own planning and analysis across infrastructure costs and corporate functions, with a focus on capacity, capital spending, cash requirements, and operational efficiency. You will partner with Infrastructure, Engineering, department leaders, Accounting, and Strategic Finance to understand the costs of deploying and operating compute at scale. Your models will connect hardware purchases, data center commitments, deployment schedules, and ongoing expenses to margins and cash flow.
In your first 12–18 months, you will manage budgets and forecasts for infrastructure and assigned corporate functions, including headcount, operating expenses, and capital investments. You will build and maintain models for GPU and other hardware purchases, data center capacity, leases, deployment costs, power, cooling, and ongoing operations. You will track infrastructure spending and major commitments against plan, identifying changes in timing, cost, or scope that affect the financial outlook. You will analyze compute costs, capacity utilization, and operating efficiency to identify opportunities to improve margins and resource allocation.
You will partner with Infrastructure and the revenue FP&A partner to translate demand forecasts into capacity and deployment plans. You will evaluate investment and spending options through scenario analysis, making tradeoffs between cost, capacity, and cash timing clear. You will maintain key components of the consolidated expense and cash forecasts, contributing to visibility into burn, liquidity, and runway. You will support the annual operating plan and periodic reforecasts by coordinating inputs, reviewing assumptions, and consolidating plans across your business areas.
You will partner with Accounting on monthly reporting, accruals, capex tracking, and budget-versus-actual analysis. You will develop useful cost and operational reporting, prepare analysis for leadership reviews, and improve recurring planning workflows. This is a hands-on role within a growing FP&A function where you will manage important parts of the company plan and help teams make disciplined spending decisions.
