Strategic Finance Manager (m/f/d)

RobCo is building the category of Autonomous Industrial Robotics and we're doing it fast. We believe that automating the ordinary frees humans to do the extraordinary, and we're building the end-to-end robotics infrastructure to make that possible - hardware, software, and AI in one stack that just works.

As our Strategic Finance Manager, you will be the analytical core of our finance team, reporting directly to the CFO. You will take ownership of central analysis, reporting, and project controlling across our different business models, spotting what needs fixing, automating what can be automated, and helping us scale through a pivotal period of growth.

• Drive COGS and gross margin analyses across all business models (RaaS, Sale + SaaS, OEM), and maintain and evolve fleet depreciation and cost models.
• Establish robust project controlling for our deployments, implementing full-cost calculations, contribution margin accounting, and ongoing post-calculation.
• Ensure accurate valuation of work-in-progress (WIP) and inventory in close collaboration with Accounting, including quarterly target-vs-actual reconciliations, loss-free valuation, and provisions for onerous contracts.
• Collaborate systematically with Technical Program Managers to track project progress, billing readiness, scope changes, and remaining cost estimates without double counting across financial years.
• Prepare and update quarterly Board reporting materials focusing on TCV, revenue, gross margin, Opex, and cash burn and advance RobCo's financial models across multiple scenario analyses for executive decision-making.
• Lead the transition from remaining performance obligations to revenue, forecasting across customers/segments, and restructuring quarterly reporting with clear reconciliations between HGB, IFRS, and US GAAP.
• Partner closely with Sales/Deal Desk, Solutions & Delivery, Supply Chain, and Accounting to align deal structures, purchase requests, and material usage into consistent financial models.
• Support annual financial statements and forecast cycles alongside the CFO, external tax advisors, and auditors, serving as a strategic sparring partner on deal economics and revenue recognition.
