## About the role

You'll work directly with the Head of Finance and CEO to raise the capital that funds our compute supply, across conventional facilities and structures that don't have a standard playbook yet. Compute is an unusual asset class. It has contracted cash flows, a real residual value, a depreciation curve nobody agrees on, and a lender base that is still forming an opinion about it. You'll build the financing architecture around it, and make the case to a credit committee that our receivables are money good.

## What they're looking for

- 5+ years in capital markets, corporate development, or institutional fundraising, 10+ preferred
- You have raised institutional capital before — specifically from institutional LPs for a hedge fund, private equity firm, or venture capital firm — and you can name the relationships you'd bring
- Investment bank capital markets experience, ideally debt: DCM, leveraged finance, structured finance, private capital markets, or a financial sponsors group
- Existing relationships with bank, non-bank, and private credit lenders active in the AI space
- Real fluency in credit documentation and structure — comfortable arguing about first-lien vs. second-lien, intercreditor terms, cash sweeps, and what a lender actually means when they ask for control over an account
- Strong financial modeling skills, you can build the facility model yourself and defend every assumption in it
