While working on multiple projects at a time, you are focused on the details while finding creative ways to solve big picture issues.

As a part of the YouTube Finance team, you will be a part of the broader Strategy, Analytics, and Finance team (SAF) whose mission is to make YouTube commercially sustainable and more valuable by identifying and steering the business towards the biggest opportunities, guiding the organization to make the best possible decisions, and enabling effective implementation with proactive and trusted risk management.

You will define and model the economics of intersecting value streams such as Live Streaming, Shopping, and Generative AI, transforming ambiguous questions into structured financial analyses. You will be a well-rounded performer in a high-energy growth environment, bringing excellent data analysis skills, including SQL proficiency and spreadsheet modeling expertise, performing deep dives into underlying assumptions while recommending efficient, scalable approaches.

From developing forward-thinking analysis to generating management reports to scaling our automated financial processes, the Finance organization is an important partner and advisor to the business.
