About the role
Sparkfund prices and structures its Distributed Capacity Procurement deals using a set of programmatic pricing models, and this role is responsible for both sides of that work: building the ad hoc project finance models a deal needs when it falls outside the existing templates, and keeping the standing programmatic models accurate as cost, revenue, timing, and financing assumptions shift.

- Strong attention to detail and comfort validating assumptions across multiple sources
