THE ROLE:

The Senior Manager, Strategic Finance will report to the Director of Strategic Finance and serve as a key member of the AI Group (AIG) Finance team. This role is a finance partner to AI business leaders and cross-functional stakeholders, supporting AMD's rapidly growing AI business through high-impact AI infrastructure and strategic commercial deals. The role requires significant interaction with senior executives and cross-functional leaders.

This position sits at the intersection of strategy, finance, and execution – owning deal economics, decision support, governance materials, and ongoing executive reporting on in-flight deals and AMD financial exposure. The role works closely with Business Development/GTM, Corporate Development, Product, Treasury, Accounting, Legal, and other partners to ensure financial alignment and execution readiness.

THE PERSON:

We are seeking a strategic, execution-oriented finance leader who thrives in ambiguity and brings strong analytical rigor, sound judgment, and an ownership mindset. You can translate complex deal constructs and financial terms into clear, decision-ready insights for senior leaders, while building strong cross-functional partnerships to drive disciplined execution. You must also take ownership of a new and growing strategic finance function for AIG, noting and acting on opportunities for continuous improvement.

• Prepare and deliver executive readouts for AIG leadership and CFO staff, translating in-flight structures and economics into clear impacts, trade-offs, sensitivities, and decision asks – supporting both formal approvals and fast-turn decisioning during execution
• Build and maintain deal models to evaluate economics and financial impacts; develop scenarios based on key operating and market assumptions
• Lead risk-related analysis, including valuation/assessment of financial support arrangements and associated financial exposure; partner with Treasury on credit risk and balance sheet considerations
• Coordinate closely with Accounting to align on classification and financial statement impacts of proposed structures and executed agreements
• Own and enhance executive reporting on in-flight deals and AMD financial exposure (including exposure/risk burn-down), and drive actions to mitigate emerging risks
• Build post-deal performance reporting (e.g., expected vs. actual economics) and provide periodic updates to business leadership
• Identify opportunities and drive initiatives to refine processes, tools, governance cadence, and cross-functional coordination to improve the quality, speed, accuracy, and rigor of deal assessment and monitoring
• Build credibility and strong cross-functional partnerships across AI business leadership, Business Development/GTM, Corporate Development, Treasury, Accounting, and Legal to enable crisp ownership, efficient handoffs, and high-quality execution

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:

• Progressive experience in relevant Finance roles (e.g., strategic finance, FP&A), investment banking, corporate development, and/or finance-oriented consulting
• Proven ability to identify key strategic issues, define and perform complex analyses, surface key insights, and influence decisions at the executive level
• Expertise in financial modeling, including forecasting and deal, investment, and/or risk-related analysis (P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow impacts)
• Strong communication, presentation, and interpersonal skills, with the ability to articulate concepts clearly and concisely to diverse audiences
