Financial Operations Analyst

Role Overview

The Finance Operations team at Zoox sits at the center of the Finance organization. The team consolidates planning inputs from across FP&A into a single companywide financial forecast, and reports actuals and forecast performance upward to Zoox leadership and to Amazon. As a Finance Operations Analyst, you will serve as the first line of review for purchase requisitions across Zoox, ensuring every commitment is structured, coded, and approved in compliance with U.S. GAAP and Zoox accounting policy.

What You Will Do

You will review purchase requisitions for compliance with U.S. GAAP and Zoox accounting policies, conduct pre-approval compliance checks of purchase orders against budget and forecast models, and conduct Forecast vs. Actuals (FvA) analysis during monthly and quarterly closes.

Why It Might Be a Fit

This role requires a solid understanding of U.S. GAAP and procure-to-pay processes, along with the judgment to know when to resolve an issue directly and when to escalate it. You will leverage SAP S4, SAP Ariba, and other internal reporting systems to analyze spend data and provide actionable insights that improve compliance, spend visibility, and the efficiency of the requisition process.

Requirements

• BA/BS degree, preferably in Finance, Accounting, or a quantitative field
• 2+ years of relevant work experience in finance operations, procurement, accounting, or FP&A
• Solid understanding of U.S. GAAP, particularly as it applies to expense classification and capitalization
• Hands-on experience with a major ERP system (e.g., SAP, Oracle, NetSuite)
• Experience with spend management or procurement software (e.g., Coupa, Ariba)
• Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel (e.g., pivot tables, lookups, and analysis of large datasets)
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to explain accounting policy clearly to non-finance stakeholders
• Detail-oriented and reliable, with a positive attitude and the ability to quickly adapt to changes in a fast-moving environment
