Eve is an AI case workspace for plaintiff law firms.
The Role
Company Overview
 
At Eve, we’re redefining what’s possible in legal technology. Our mission is to empower plaintiff law firms with AI-driven solutions that elevate how they operate, serve clients, and grow.
 
We believe the future of law will be built by “AI-Native Law Firms” — firms that are managed, scaled, and optimized by intelligent systems rather than manual processes and endless administrative work. Eve’s technology augments the capabilities of attorneys across every stage of a case — from intake and document review to strategy and settlement — so they can focus on what truly matters: achieving the best outcomes for their clients.
 
Our vision is simple yet transformative: enable every firm to operate at its highest potential through the power of AI.
 
Why Join Eve:
 
Product-market fit: Eve is used by over 900+ law firms, and we’re growing fast.
Backed by top investors: We’ve raised over $160M from world-class partners including Spark Capital, Andreessen Horowitz(A16z), Menlo Ventures, and Lightspeed.
Built by a world-class team: Engineers, designers, and operators from places like Scale, Meta, Airbnb, Cruise, Square, Rubrik, and Lyft are building Eve from the ground up.
AI-Native from day one: We’re on the bleeding edge of AI, collaborating directly with teams at OpenAI and Anthropic to build best-in-class AI workflows tailored for legal work.
Explosive growth: We are growing 2X revenue Quarter over Quarter.

The Opportunity:
 
As our Strategic Finance Business Partner for Product and Infrastructure, you will be the bridge between our technical roadmap and our financial bottom line. This role will be primarily focused on partnering with the R&D org, but in addition will provide coverage for G&A functions including headcount planning and departmental budgeting.  This is a high-impact role where you won't just "track the budget"—you will actively shape how we price our products and where we deploy capital. Whether you are analyzing the gross margin impact of a new AI feature or right-sizing our global G&A footprint, your insights will directly influence leadership.

Responsibilities

  • Infrastructure Cost Management:
  • Model, track, and allocate LLM API and Compute costs (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.) by product feature, customer segment, and use case
  • Build unit cost metrics for document processing (OCR, ingestion pipelines) and map them to revenue-generating workflows
  • Identify and size optimization opportunities; drive accountability on cost reduction initiatives with clear ROI framing
  • Build dashboards and alerting so cost anomalies surface in real time, not at month-end
  •  
  • Cross-Functional Initiatives:
  • Support board and investor reporting with unit economics narratives
  • Support contribution margin analysis and CAC payback by segment and cohort
  • Partner with G&A leadership (People, Legal, IT) to drive efficient scaling, managing departmental budgets, and identifying opportunities for automation or outsourcing.
  • Lead the annual and quarterly planning processes for Product and G&A, ensuring headcount and discretionary spend are directed toward the highest-impact initiatives.
  • Support the Head of Finance on corporate development, fundraising support, or long-range planning (LRP) scenarios.

What You'll Bring

  • 6+ years of total work experience, including 3+ years in investment banking, private equity, and/or venture capital, paired with 3+ years of strategic finance/FP&A at a high-growth technology company.
  • Direct experience with Product Finance, specifically modeling COGS, gross margins, and/or cloud infrastructure costs.
  • Demonstrated expertise in pricing analysis or business model transformation (e.g., moving from seats to usage-based pricing).
  • Strong quantitative skills, with the ability to build complex, multi-variable models from scratch.
  • Exceptional communication skills, specifically the ability to explain financial trade-offs to highly technical engineering and product leaders.
  • High degree of empathy and tact required to manage departmental budgets and resource allocation across sensitive corporate functions.

Educational Background

  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Mathematics, Engineering, or other STEM field

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience in a SaaS company with a subscription and/or usage-based business model.
  • Familiarity with AI model/LLM token costs and cloud hosting (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
  • Experience with using modern FP&A software (e.g., Pigment, Aleph).

Benefits:
 
💰 Competitive Salary & Equity
💹 401(k) Program with Employer Matching
⚕️ Health, Dental, Vision and Life Insurance
🩼 Short Term and Long Term Disability
🚗 Commuter Benefits
🧑‍💻 Autonomous Work Environment
