The role turns operating and financial information into clear outlooks, alternatives, and recommendations for management. It works within a matrix model: business leaders own their operating assumptions and decisions; FP&A sets financial standards, challenges assumptions, and connects the business views to an enterprise outlook. The Principal reports to the FP&A leader, who retains overall coordination and escalation responsibility. Business-unit and process assignments may evolve as the team and businesses grow. Core responsibilities - Business partnership: Serve as the day-to-day finance partner for assigned business units. Understand operating drivers, commitments, headcount, capital needs, and risks; support leaders with timely analysis and clear recommendations. - Process leadership: Own assigned FP&A processes end to end across the relevant business units. Set the method and calendar, gather and challenge inputs, coordinate contributors, consolidate outputs, document decisions, and arrange backup coverage. - Annual planning: Lead assigned components of the Board Budget and Budget Memo financial review. Challenge business assumptions early, reconcile approved commitments to planning baselines, and prepare management and Board-ready analysis. - Forecast and strategic planning: Develop or contribute to the quarterly financial outlook, longer-term plan, material operating drivers, and scenario analyses. Explain changes from the approved plan and prior outlook, with quantified risks and opportunities. - Performance reporting: Deliver assigned monthly business-unit or departmental reviews, including actual results, drivers, forecast implications, actions, and decision requests. Work with Accounting to reconcile reported actuals and with business leaders to validate explanations. - Workforce and capital: Integrate approved positions, open roles, and loaded costs into plans and forecasts with People Ops. Evaluate capital or investment choices and connect project timing and cash implications with Campus FP&A and Treasury as applicable. - Data and systems: Support consistent finance definitions, controlled model versions, source-data reconciliation, and effective use of Vena. State the business need and acceptance criteria for BI/IT/AI work; collaborate on integrations and technical changes with the designated system owners. Use NetSuite as a financial data source subject to Accounting controls. - Cross-functional execution: Coordinate with independent Campus FP&A on shared planning deadlines, project definitions, and enterprise consolidation. Identify transactional close, billing, approval, or system administration tasks that require an agreed functional handoff while preserving necessary FP&A analytical input. ## ABOUT YOU - Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field; FP&A, CFA Certificates preferred - 5-10 years of progressive FP&A or corporate finance experience, including leadership of teams or major planning cycles. - Demonstrated ownership of budgeting, forecasting, management reporting, and cross-functional business partnering. - Advanced Excel and financial modeling skills; experience with planning platforms, BI tools, and ERP systems such as NetSuite and Vena - Strong business judgment and ability to prioritize, operate independently, and deliver through ambiguity and change. - Executive-level communication and influence skills, with a record of building credibility across functions. ## ABOUT THE WORK ENVIRONMENT This role is in office at our corporate headquarters in the Brickell area of Miami, Florida. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions. ## About Hut 8 ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Hut 8 is an energy infrastructure platform that integrates power, digital infrastructure, and compute at scale to fuel next-generation, energy-intensive technologies including Bitcoin mining and high-performance computing (HPC/AI). - **Entity Type**: Public (NASDAQ: HUT; TSX: HUT) - **Headquarters**: Miami, Florida, United States - **Founded**: 2017 - **Founders**: Not publicly listed as individual founders; the company emerged from the Hut 8 Mining Corp. lineage. ## Core Business - **Primary industries**: Energy Infrastructure, Digital Infrastructure, High-Performance Computing (HPC), Artificial Intelligence (AI) Compute, Bitcoin Mining. - **Target customers**: B2B; primarily enterprise and institutional clients needing purpose-built data centers, colocation, and compute capacity for AI and HPC workloads. Also includes institutional energy partners and Bitcoin mining operators. - **Mission/Purpose**: To build a platform that evolves alongside energy-intensive technologies for decades to come—from world-shaping innovations today to the breakthroughs yet to be achieved. They take a "power-first, innovation-driven" approach. ## Products & Services - **Energy Infrastructure (Power)**: Acquisition, development, and management of critical energy assets—powered land, interconnects, substations, switchyards, and generation assets. This is the foundational layer of their platform. - **Digital Infrastructure (Data Centers)**: Design, build, monetize, and operate purpose-built facilities for energy-intensive applications (AI, HPC, Bitcoin mining). Key assets include the Beacon Point (1 GW AI campus) and River Bend (330 MW) sites. - **Compute (HPC & AI)**: Operating businesses that acquire, deploy, and monetize specialized hardware for next-generation workloads. This includes their **Highrise.ai** subsidiary, which commercializes AI infrastructure and cloud capacity. - **Bitcoin Mining & Managed Services**: Legacy and ongoing ASIC compute operations across sites in Alberta, New York, and Texas. ## Market Standing - **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not publicly disclosed in provided sources. As a public company (NASDAQ: HUT), market cap fluctuates with stock price. - **Key Metric**: **1,020 megawatts** of energy capacity under management across 15 sites in the US and Canada (as of mid-2026). They recently commercialized the first phase of their 1 GW Beacon Point AI data center campus with a **15-year, 352 MW IT lease** carrying a base-term contract value of **$9.8 billion**. - **Notable Investors/Partners**: Macquarie (joint venture partner), a Fortune 200 renewable energy producer (JV partner), and institutional debt investors (closed $4.25 billion in investment-grade senior secured notes for Beacon Point). - **Growth Signals**: Massive headcount growth (+55.7% year-over-year to 175 employees). Active job postings have grown +116.7% year-over-year (52 open roles). They are aggressively building out their AI/HPC commercial arm (Highrise.ai) and expanding their energy origination team. ## Competitive Advantages - **Power-First Approach**: Unlike pure data center developers, Hut 8 originates and owns the power assets (land, interconnects, substations) first, giving them a structural advantage in speed and cost to market. - **Multi-Use Case Flexibility**: They can deploy Bitcoin mining as a "transitional load" to generate cash flow while building out higher-return AI/HPC data centers on the same site. This allows rapid, cost-effective commercialization. - **Scale & Financial Backing**: A 1 GW campus (Beacon Point) with a $9.8B contracted lease and $4.25B in investment-grade debt financing is a rare, institutional-grade asset in the AI infrastructure space. - **Integrated Platform**: They own the full stack—power, physical data centers, and compute operations—enabling them to optimize assets for the highest risk-adjusted return over time. ## Strategic Focus - **Scaling AI Infrastructure**: The primary current focus is commercializing the Beacon Point campus and building out River Bend for AI compute. The Highrise.ai subsidiary is central to this push. - **Energy Origination**: Aggressively acquiring and developing new power assets (interconnects, substations) across North America. - **Platform Optimization**: Actively managing the portfolio to transition assets from Bitcoin mining to higher-return HPC/AI use cases over time. - **Capital Discipline**: Using creative financing (investment-grade notes, JVs) to fund massive capital expenditures while maintaining a disciplined balance sheet. ## Why Work Here - **High-Impact Work**: Employees work at the intersection of energy and AI—two of the most transformative industries. The company is building infrastructure that powers the next generation of technology. - **Culture & Values**: Certified as a **Great Place to Work®** and included in Newsweek's America's Greatest Companies. Culture is described as "ownership mindset," "merit-based decision-making," "no room for ego," and "the best idea wins." CEO Asher Genoot emphasizes "substance over flash." - **Growth Trajectory**: The company is in a hyper-growth phase (55% headcount growth YoY, 117% increase in job postings). This offers rapid career advancement and the chance to shape a scaling organization. - **Work Environment**: Headquarters in **Miami, FL**, with roles available in San Francisco, Baton Rouge, Nueces County (TX), and remote options for some positions (e.g., Director, Energy Origination is remote). - **Notable Perks**: Working with a team of "sector veterans and proven builder-operators." Emphasis on intellectual rigor, ownership, and solving hard problems at scale. ## Sources 1. [Hut 8 Corporate Website](https://www.hut8.com/) 2.
