About you
We’re looking for someone who is entrepreneurial, analytical and very comfortable operating in ambiguity. You help bring focus and structure to ambiguous situations to chart a clear path forward. You might come from investing (Banking, PE, VC) or a Corp Dev team at a fast-growing (fin)tech company.
Demonstrated track record of executing M&A or investment transactions - you have closed deals, not just supported them
Strong financial modeling and valuation skills
You enjoy building relationships
Proven ability to own a fundraising process end-to-end - managing workstreams, materials, and investor relationships with minimal oversight
Familiarity with the blockchain infrastructure, digital asset, or fintech space is a plus
Excellent communication skills - you can present a nuanced deal thesis to a CFO and explain a term sheet to an engineer
Comfort operating as an IC in a fast-moving environment; you don’t need a team to be effective, and you know how to pull in the right internal stakeholders at the right moment
You default to AI and take pride in your work. You are building agents, vibe-coding apps, and more.
You likely have 7+ years of work experience
