We believe in transparency and value constructive, honest debate—we’re focused on getting to the best ideas, faster.

Role 

We are looking for a Staff Analyst, Business Operations to join our Office of CEO Business Operations department. This is a hybrid role based in Mohali, reporting to the Director, Business Operations. 

You will lead strategic initiatives and optimize operations across the organization, making your mark on the planning and product roadmap at the forefront of the world’s cloud security leader. You’ll champion innovation and help deliver a growing portfolio of capabilities in threat prevention, visibility, and business enablement.

What you’ll do (Role Expectations)

  • Own and drive complex, cross-functional projects aimed at accelerating growth, optimizing operations, and improving profitability.
  • Develop and maintain core business models, forecasts, and dashboards to monitor Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and support strategic decision-making
  • Collaborate with leadership to design, execute, and track strategic initiatives focused on business growth and operational efficiency
  • Conduct market research, competitive analysis, and performance reviews to guide growth strategies effectively
  • Develop and implement data-driven strategies to enhance organizational processes and scalability
  • Create reports, presentations, and dashboards to communicate findings and propose solutions to stakeholders

Who You Are (Success Profile)

  • You thrive in ambiguity. You're comfortable building the path as you walk it. You thrive in a dynamic environment, seeing ambiguity not as a hindrance, but as the raw material to build something meaningful.
  • You act like an owner. Your passion for the mission fuels your bias for action. You operate with integrity because you genuinely care about the outcome. True ownership involves leveraging dynamic range: the ability to navigate seamlessly between high-level strategy and hands-on execution.
  • You are a problem-solver. You love running towards the challenges because you are laser-focused on finding the solution, knowing that solving the hard problems delivers the biggest impact.
  • You are a high-trust collaborator. You are ambitious for the team, not just yourself. You embrace our challenge culture by giving and receiving ongoing feedback—knowing that candor delivered with clarity and respect is the truest form of teamwork and the fastest way to earn trust.
  • You are a learner. You have a true growth mindset and are obsessed with your own development, actively seeking feedback to become a better partner and a stronger teammate. You love what you do and you do it with purpose.

What We’re Looking for (Minimum Qualifications)

  • Bachelor’s degree in Business, Finance, Economics, Operations, or a related field
  • 6-8 years of experience in strategy, management consulting, or operational roles within dynamic industries
  • Proficiency in analytical tools such as Excel, SQL, Tableau, Power BI, and other data visualization platforms
  • Exhibited expertise in financial modeling, KPI tracking, and performance evaluations alongside strong problem-solving and decision-making skills

What Will Make You Stand Out (Preferred Qualifications)

  • Experience in industries like consulting, finance, or technology
  • Prior exposure to strategic planning or change management initiatives
  • Entrepreneurial mindset with strong business acumen
