Financial modeling is the skill.

I’m in BizOps at a startup and have never had to do any financial modeling. We have a FP&A team to do that.

Healthcare. When it comes to finance related work, we’ll typically work on models that impact a line item(s) on our financial statement. FP&A is responsible for taking those inputs and using them in the company wide financial model.

M&A financial modeling is handled by Corp dev, with similar support from BizOps.

I think general understanding of financial concepts is important but it’s not like you need to be an expert.

But then again, BizOps varies pretty widely across companies so you could end up landing in a more FP&A type role.

I am in a tech IC position. One of friends switched to FAANG by converting the profile to consultant profile. The friend who might have less tech knowledge than me is now in FAANG and earning more. If the end goal would be that the friend might one day be a product manager and me an engineering manager taking instructions from the same friend, isn't consultant profile an easier path to growth. I had been practising DSA for years and the competition is only ever growing.
