## Job Description

## Responsibilities
- Lead financing execution — Own workstreams across high-yield bond issuances, senior secured term loans, and equipment / project finance facilities. Drive term sheet negotiations, manage lender and counsel relationships, and coordinate documentation through close.
- Structure credit support arrangements — Analyze, negotiate, and document guarantees, credit wraps, off-take agreements, and other investment-grade backstop structures. Understand how these instruments affect debt sizing, covenant mechanics, and investor / lender underwriting.
- Drive financial modeling — Build and own transaction models covering debt sizing, DSCR waterfalls, restricted payment mechanics, levered/unlevered returns, and multi-scenario sensitivities. Be the team's primary check on model integrity across live transactions.
- Lead counterparty and legal coordination — Manage external counsel, financial advisors, and counterparty working groups. Track open legal and commercial issues, flag risks to senior leadership, and push resolutions forward on deal timelines.
- Design and stress-test capital structures — Evaluate HoldCo / OpCo / PropCo structuring, cross-collateralization provisions, cross-default mechanics, and intercreditor arrangements. Work with legal to translate structural decisions into documentation.
- Support equity-linked and warrant structuring — Analyze and help negotiate warrant agreements, equity co-invest structures, and other instruments issued in connection with strategic credit support or partnership arrangements.
- Prepare investor and lender materials — Own the production of investment memos, lender presentations, bond offering documents, and internal approval materials. Ensure financial accuracy and narrative coherence across all deal documents.
- Partner cross-functionally across the business — Work closely with development, power, site selection, legal, and technology teams to gather inputs for financial analyses, pressure-test commercial assumptions, and ensure financing structures are grounded in operational reality. Translate complex capital markets concepts for non-finance stakeholders and help the broader team understand how financing decisions affect project outcomes.
- Build organizational execution expertise — Develop internal frameworks, playbooks, and reference materials that codify deal learning and improve execution consistency over time.

## Required Experience
- 5–7 years of experience in leveraged finance, structured credit, or a related capital markets role at a bank, credit fund, or infrastructure sponsor.
- Demonstrated experience leading or significantly owning deal execution from term sheet through close.
- Deep financial modeling capability: able to independently build, audit, and pressure-test transaction models for complex, multi-tranche capital structures.
- Proven ability to manage external advisors and counterparty workstreams while driving transactions forward on timeline.
- Excellent written communication skills; able to draft clear, concise investment memos, term sheets, and board-level materials independently.

## Preferred Experience
- Prior exposure to data center, power, digital infrastructure, or other capital-intensive real asset sectors — on the debt or equity side.
- Strong working knowledge of credit agreement mechanics, covenant structures, and high-yield / leveraged loan documentation.
- Experience with credit support structures — guarantees, off-take agreements, or similar — and their impact on financing economics and lender underwriting.
- Familiarity with warrant agreements, equity co-invest structures, or other equity-linked instruments issued alongside credit facilities or strategic arrangements.
- Understanding of SPV structuring, multi-lender intercreditor arrangements, and cross-collateralization mechanics.
- Prior people management or mentorship of junior deal team members.
