Boat Relocation Jobs in California (NOW HIRING)

The marine industry supports recreation, global commerce, and national defense. And yet it runs on technology that hasn't meaningfully changed in fifty years. Until now.
Arc is on a mission to electrify the marine industry. We're rethinking powertrains, software, and vessel designs from first principles. And we're already executing. We started with consumers to develop and harden our core technology. We're now scaling production of our flagship model with new models and sectors on the horizon. Now we're extending our platform to commercial applications, starting with tugs, ferries, and defense, with years worth of signed contracts and a pipeline that spans every vessel type on the water.

The technology is proven, the momentum is building, and the opportunity is enormous. The marine industry is going electric and Arc is building the platform that powers it

As Arc's Strategic Finance Manager you will own strategic finance and FP&A across the company. That means owning our financial models and forecasts, driving reporting that goes directly to our CEO and Board, and running our budgeting and planning processes. This role will report to the Director of Finance. 

We're looking for someone fired up by the mission and ready to build. You'll thrive here if you move fast, take ownership, and care about the details. 

This is a full-time, on-site role at our Los Angeles headquarters.

• Building and owning Arc's operating model, forecasts, and long-range plan across our Consumer, Commercial, and Defense segments
• Creating board materials, investor updates, and monthly internal reporting that goes directly to our CEO and Board
• Leading the annual budget and quarterly re-forecasts end to end, from target-setting through variance analysis
• Partnering with leaders across engineering, production, and sales to turn operating plans into financial outcomes and guide pricing, hiring, and capital allocation decisions
• Designing scalable, AI-enabled reporting and planning workflows as the first dedicated hire on our strategic finance team

• 5+ years  in investment banking, strategic finance, or FP&A at a high-growth company
• Proficiency with advanced financial modeling in Excel and building clear, executive-ready presentations
• Background in corporate finance fundamentals, with fluency connecting operational drivers to three-statement forecasts and telling the story behind the numbers
• Ability to operate autonomously in ambiguity, manage multiple workstreams, and sweat the details under tight deadlines

• Solid accounting foundation (GAAP fluency, close experience) with willingness to support month-end close alongside the accounting team 
• Passion for using AI tools to automate workflows and multiply your output
• Experience in hard tech, manufacturing, marine, automotive, or aerospace and defense
• Comfortable pushing at a fast but sustainable pace
• Enthusiasm for boating and the water

The base salary for this role is $140,000 annually.
