Role Description

Dropbox is seeking a Senior Financial Analyst, Revenue FP&A to own forecasting, analysis, and strategic insights across key revenue-related metrics. This role sits within Corporate Finance and partners closely with Revenue FP&A, Accounting, Investor Relations, and cross-functional business teams to create a unified view of business performance and outlook.

In this role, you will connect upstream business drivers such as annual recurring revenue, net new ARR, bookings, retention, and paid user trends to billings and revenue forecasts. You will help improve forecast rigor, support executive and guidance-related communications, and build scalable processes for one of the company’s most visible financial areas.

This is a high-impact role for someone who enjoys complex modeling, revenue mechanics, executive storytelling, and cross-functional problem solving in a SaaS or subscription business.

Responsibilities
  • Own revenue forecasting across key SaaS metrics, including billings, revenue, net new paid users, average revenue per user, merchant fees, deferred revenue, and contra revenue items.
  • Translate business drivers into financial forecasts by connecting ARR, net new ARR, bookings, cohort behavior, ramp, retention, and revenue recognition timing to billings and revenue outcomes.
  • Support guidance and executive communication by partnering with Investor Relations and Corporate Finance leadership to develop forecasts, scenarios, key assumptions, risks, and opportunities.
  • Drive insight and decision support by analyzing billings and revenue drivers, identifying trends, and providing a centralized financial perspective to inform strategic decisions and investment trade-offs.
  • Partner across Finance and business teams, including Revenue FP&A, Accounting, Tax, Treasury, Long-Range Planning, Corporate FP&A, Finance Systems, Analytics, and business teams to align assumptions, reporting, and financial narratives.
  • Improve forecasting processes and systems by driving initiatives that increase forecast accuracy, scalability, transparency, and efficiency.
  • Contribute to Finance operating excellence by strengthening forecasting methodologies, documentation, analytical rigor, and process consistency across the organization.
Requirements
  • 6+ years of experience in FP&A, Corporate Finance, Revenue Finance, Strategic Finance, or a related finance function, with hands-on ownership of forecasting and revenue-related metrics.
  • Experience working in a SaaS, subscription, or recurring revenue business, with strong understanding of metrics such as ARR, net new ARR, bookings, billings, retention, ARPU, and paid user trends.
  • Strong understanding of revenue forecasting mechanics, including revenue waterfalls, deferred revenue, merchant fees, contra revenue, and revenue recognition timing.
  • Advanced Excel and financial modeling skills, including the ability to build, maintain, and clearly explain complex forecast models.
  • Proven ability to independently own complex forecasting areas, ambiguous workstreams, and high-impact projects.
  • Strong communication, storytelling, and cross-functional influence skills, with the ability to translate detailed analysis into clear recommendations for senior stakeholders.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience with financial planning systems such as Oracle PBCS, Anaplan, Pigment, Adaptive Planning, Planful, or similar tools.
  • Experience with BI, data, or reporting tools such as Tableau, Databricks, Looker, Oracle Financials, SQL-based reporting, or similar platforms.
  • Experience building and maintaining revenue forecast models that incorporate ARR, net new ARR, cohort behavior, retention, deferred revenue, and revenue recognition timing.
  • Experience supporting executive reporting, board materials, Investor Relations, public-company guidance, or long-range planning.
  • Interest in improving Finance workflows through automation, scalable systems, or AI-enabled planning tools.
