FP&A Analyst – Austin
Duvera's client, a rapidly growing data center developer is searching for an FP&A Analyst to work in The Domain in Austin.
The FP&A Analyst is the first analyst hire supporting to Director of FP&A and SVP of Accounting and will work in close, daily partnership with the Project Controls team. This role owns the recurring analytical backbone of the business — cash forecasting, cost reconciliation, and variance reporting as the projects move through development, financing, construction, and operations. You will help stand up the reporting rhythm the company runs on: a weekly cash forecast, a monthly ERP reconciliation, and a fixed biweekly reporting package presented directly to the CFO.
What You'll Do
- Maintain and update the company's rolling 13-week cash forecast, incorporating Project Controls' cost inputs and the validated invoice/payment pipeline.
- Reconcile Project Controls' monthly cost report to the NetSuite general ledger; investigate and analyze variances between actuals, commitments, and budget.
- Help Build budget-vs-actual-vs-estimate-at-completion (EAC) variance analysis at the cost-account (WBS/CBS) level, flagging lines trending over threshold for Director/CFO review.
- Support the biweekly FP&A reporting package: contingency drawdown tracking, cash flow bridges (budget → scope changes → quantity growth → escalation → schedule → EAC), and scope/design deviation reporting.
- Attend the Weekly Invoice Review and assist with vendor invoice validation, vendor master data, and land-acquisition data tie-outs
- Support annual budgeting and periodic re-forecasting for assigned business lines, including consolidation workbooks and Power Query–based templates.
- Take on ad hoc financial analysis for the CFO and SVP of Accounting as the function scales.
What We're Looking For
- Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field.
- 2–5 years of experience in FP&A, corporate finance, project finance, or accounting — project- or construction-cost environments strongly preferred.
- Advanced Excel skills, including Power Query, SUMIFS-based reconciliation frameworks, and large multi-tab workbook management.
- Ability to work through and/or maintain project and corporate level financial models
- Experience with an ERP system (NetSuite strongly preferred; SAP, Oracle, or similar acceptable).
- Strong reconciliation instincts — comfortable tracing a number back to source and comfortable telling a director when something doesn't tie.
- Excellent written and verbal communication; able to present variance drivers clearly to non-finance stakeholders.
- Comfortable operating with limited process and evolving priorities in an early-stage, fast-moving company.
Nice to Have
- Exposure to EPC or GMP construction contracts, cost accounting
- Experience with project management software like Procore, Primavera P6
- Background in power generation, energy infrastructure, midstream, or data centers.
- Familiarity with project finance concepts (SPVs, non-recourse debt, DSCR, draw schedules).
- Prior experience in a company scaling its finance function from an early stage.
