## Job description

## About Panoptyc

At Panoptyc, we're on a mission to revolutionize loss prevention. Using Visual AI and expert human reviewers, we help protect over 20,000 retail locations across the United States by detecting theft and operational issues before they become costly problems. From Fortune 500 retailers to regional chains, our technology helps businesses reduce shrink and improve operational efficiency. As a fully remote, rapidly growing company, we're building a world-class team that thrives on ownership, speed, and innovation. If you're excited about using data to drive strategic decisions in a high-growth environment, we'd love to meet you.

## The Role

We're looking for a Business & Finance Analyst to support financial planning, reporting, and analysis across the company. This is a high-ownership role that sits at the intersection of finance, revenue operations, and business intelligence. You will be a direct partner to the COO, CFO, Controller, and leadership team on everything from lender reporting and board materials to pipeline modelling, customer-level revenue reconciliation, and the ad hoc strategic projects that come with a fast-growing business. This role requires someone who is comfortable in the details of a multi-stream SaaS revenue model, understanding not just what the numbers say but equally willing to figure out how they are constructed, where they come from in the underlying systems, and how to explain discrepancies clearly to external stakeholders including lenders and auditors.

## Key Responsibilities

Financial Planning & Reporting

- Build and maintain financial models (budgeting, forecasting, scenario planning)
- Analyze company performance against targets; flag trends, risks, and opportunities
- Track and report on key business metrics/KPIs on a regular cadence
- Prepare periodic lender reporting packages (covenant compliance, borrowing base support) in partnership with the CFO/Controller

Revenue Operations & Data Reconciliation

- Work with the sales team to validate pipeline deal status, integrate sales pipeline data from HubSpot with financial actuals to maintain a customer-level recurring monthly revenue (RMR) file, reconciling data across QBO, Stripe, HubSpot, and proprietary sales databases
- Partner with department leads to gather inputs and align on reporting needs
- Identify opportunities to improve financial reporting processes and tools

Executive & Customer-Facing Communication

- Prepare materials for quarterly board meetings, including financial performance and KPI summaries
- Build polished, data-driven presentations for our largest enterprise customers — quarterly business reviews and ROI/value narratives that translate account-level data into a compelling story for customer stakeholders
- Partner with Sales and Customer Success to ensure customer-facing materials are accurate, current, and aligned with the underlying financial and usage data

Strategic & Special Projects

- Lead ad hoc, high-visibility special projects for the COO/CFO — ranging from business-model questions (e.g., the unit economics of leasing vs. selling hardware) to in-depth studies quantifying the ROI our service delivers for a given customer or segment
- Own projects end-to-end: frame the question, build the analysis, and deliver an executive-ready recommendation
- Support ad hoc financial and business analysis to inform leadership decisions, including pricing, churn, discount structures, customer segmentation, and product mix

## Qualifications

- 3+ years of experience in financial analysis, FP&A, corporate finance, investment banking, or consulting
- Accounting and/or Finance certification
- Demonstrated experience building polished, executive-level presentations for both internal (board) and external (customer/investor) audiences — board deck or customer QBR experience is a strong plus
- Advanced proficiency in Excel/Google Sheets; comfortable with financial modeling
- Strong analytical, organizational, and communication skills
- Strong data reconciliation skills; comfortable working across multiple source systems and identifying discrepancies
- Fluent English (written and spoken)
- Availability to work aligned with EST or CST timezone hours

Mindset

- Proactive — takes ownership and moves things forward without waiting to be told
- Comfortable with ambiguity and shifting priorities
- Resourceful — finds ways to get things done with limited time or resources
- Adaptable, willing to wear multiple hats as the company grows
- Proactive communicator — surfaces issues and inconsistencies before they become problems
- High ownership — treats deliverables as if they are going directly to a lender, board member, or customer executive, because they often are
- Comfortable scoping and running self-directed special projects — takes an open-ended question and turns it into a structured, decision-ready answer

## Nice to Have

- Experience in a startup or SaaS/tech environment
- Experience in retail, loss prevention, or security industries
- Familiarity with BI/reporting tools
- NetSuite experience
- HubSpot experience
- Prior exposure to board-level, investor, or customer-facing reporting
- Experience in a SaaS or subscription-revenue business; familiarity with RMR/ARR metrics and churn analysis
- Experience with deferred revenue accounting and multi-year contract recognition
- Familiarity with borrowing base calculations or asset-based lending structures
- Exposure to hardware/asset-based business models or equipment leasing economics

Job Details

- Employment Type: Full-time (40 hours per week)
- Location: Remote
- Schedule: Must be available to work during US Eastern Time (EST) or US Central Time (CST) business hours.
- Language: Professional English proficiency required.

- **Founded**: 2019
- **Founders**: Mac Bolak

## Core Business

- Mission or purpose statement: "Protect what matters" — using AI to eliminate retail shrink

## Products & Services
- **Panoptyc AI Platform**: A computer vision and machine learning system that detects suspicious behavior at self-checkout, cashier lanes, and back-of-house areas. It provides real-time alerts and video evidence, catching over 400,000 thefts per year. The platform anonymizes individuals for privacy while focusing on behavioral anomalies.
- **Free Shrink Audit**: A consultative service where Panoptyc’s loss prevention experts analyze a retailer’s current shrinkage data to identify the source of losses and recommend tailored solutions.
- **Custom ROI Calculator**: A tool provided during the sales process to help potential customers estimate savings based on their specific store profile.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not publicly available
- **Key Metric**: Protects over 20,000 retail locations across the United States; catches over 400,000 retail thefts per year.
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Not publicly disclosed; founder Mac Bolak was initially approached by an investor who saw parallels between his sports AI technology and retail theft detection.
- **Growth Signals**: The company reports an average 30% shrink reduction within 6 months for its customers. It has expanded from back-of-house (employee break rooms, cafeterias) to front-of-house (self-checkout, shoplifting prevention). Its stated goal is to scale to protect 1 million retail locations worldwide.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Proven AI Moat**: Panoptyc’s technology originated from action-detection algorithms originally built for analyzing basketball games — a unique foundation that translates directly to detecting theft events (e.g., under-ringing, walkouts, cancellations).
- **Privacy by Design**: The system uses advanced anonymization techniques to protect individual privacy while still catching theft, an important differentiator in employee-monitoring contexts.
- **Deep Integration**: Seamlessly works with existing point-of-sale systems and camera infrastructure, lowering the barrier to adoption.
- **Real-Time & Post-Incident Capabilities**: Evolved from after-the-fact review to real-time theft detection, allowing instant prevention rather than just documentation.

## Strategic Focus
- **Real-Time Theft Detection**: Moving from post-incident analysis to instant prevention across the entire retail environment.

- **Retail Security Shield**: Creating a comprehensive solution that covers the full retail environment — from employee break rooms to customer-facing areas.

## Why Work Here
- **Mission-Driven Impact**: Employees work on technology that directly reduces retail theft and helps businesses recover millions in losses.
- **Culture of Ownership**: The team values urgency, accountability, and practical, scalable solutions — described as "moving quickly and taking ownership."
- **Remote-Friendly**: While the HQ is in Birmingham, Michigan, the company supports remote work across the United States, with some roles listed as fully remote (e.g., Lead Embedded Systems Engineer, Business Development Representative).
- **Growth Trajectory**: With 20,000+ locations protected and a target of 1 million, the company is in a high-growth phase, offering career acceleration opportunities.
- **Real-World AI Application**: Engineers and product people get to work on cutting-edge computer vision and machine learning challenges with a clear, measurable impact on the physical world.
