## About the role

9fin's buy-side clients are the capital behind the credit markets. Credit funds, CLO managers, private credit platforms, and distressed investors run research, underwriting, portfolio monitoring, and relative value workflows that are deep and specialised. They are actively excited about what AI can unlock. Our job is to make that potential real inside their investment teams.

## What they're looking for

- Credit portfolio management and research. High yield, leveraged loan, or multi-strategy credit investing, covering screening, underwriting, credit committee process, and ongoing portfolio monitoring
- Private credit and direct lending. Origination, underwriting, documentation review, or portfolio monitoring at a private credit or direct lending platform
- CLO investing. CLO management, warehouse and portfolio construction, or CLO debt and equity tranche investing
- Distressed and special situations. Stressed and distressed credit analysis, restructuring and process tracking, documentation and covenant analysis, or capital structure work
- Familiar with and hands-on with modern domain tooling. Direct user experience of Rogo, Hebbia, AlphaSense, Octus, or comparable AI-native platforms in your workflow. You can speak from experience about what works, what doesn't, and why
- Comfortable operating inside confidential investment processes. You will sit close to live pipelines, positions, and internal research. You are disciplined about what does and does not travel between accounts, and clients trust you quickly because of it
