Why join Giga

• The Pace: We're building at a speed most companies talk about but never actually operate at. If you've been bored somewhere else, you won't be here.
• The Impact: Every person at Giga touches the work that matters. No layers, no waiting for approval chains. You'll see your fingerprints on what we ship.
• The Team: A team of operators defining the future of AI infrastructure. We recruit A-players from the most innovative companies in the world, and they choose Giga because the work here means more.
• The Moment: AI doesn't run without power, and that's us. Giga is the picks and shovels behind the AI revolution. This industry is about to explode, and you'll be in the room where it's already happening.

What you’ll do

The AI infrastructure buildout is the largest capital deployment cycle since the shale boom. Hundreds of billions of dollars will flow into power and data center assets over the next decade, and the people who build the financing playbooks now will define how this entire industry gets funded. This role sits at the center of that.

As Giga’s Head of Project Finance, you will own capital formation for the company. You will build the project finance function from the ground up — the team, the lender relationships, the capital strategy, and the financing playbooks that unlock nine- and ten-figure infrastructure deployments across power generation and data center assets. You will report directly to the CFO, work shoulder-to-shoulder with the CEO, and sit at the table with tier-one lenders, infrastructure funds, and tax equity investors as the principal, not the advisor.

This is not a role for someone looking to run a desk inside an established framework. You are inheriting a blank page. You will define how Giga finances its pipeline, hire the team that executes it, and set the standard for how this generational buildout gets funded.

This role comes with meaningful equity in a company at the inflection point of a generational buildout. If you’ve been waiting for the right moment to step into principal ownership of capital strategy at scale, this is it.

Where you’ll work

Remote. NYC Preferred

Responsibilities

•   Own capital formation across the portfolio — set the financing strategy for Giga’s full pipeline of power and data center assets, determining how each project gets capitalized across debt, tax equity, sponsor equity, and alternative structures.
•   Lead the project finance function end to end — from originating lender and investor relationships, to structuring and negotiating facilities, to closing deals, to managing post-close compliance and reporting.
•   Build and lead the team — hire, develop, and manage the project finance organization. Define the operating model, the review process, and the bar for financial rigor as the team scales from one to many.
•   Structure and close financings at scale — negotiate non-recourse and limited-recourse debt facilities, construction financing, tax equity partnerships, back-leverage, holdco debt, and other structures with institutional lenders, infrastructure funds, and strategic partners.
•   Serve as Giga’s principal face to the capital markets — own relationships with tier-one project finance banks, infrastructure funds, tax equity investors, and ratings agencies. Build the institutional credibility that unlocks favorable terms across the portfolio.
•   Drive deals to close on Giga’s timelines — lead financial due diligence and lender-facing workstreams, coordinate across legal, engineering, and operations, and hold the pen on the financial narrative from term sheet through funding.
•   Partner with the CEO and CFO on enterprise capital strategy — inform decisions on project selection, portfolio construction, capital allocation, and the corporate financing stack that sits above the project level.
•   Represent the company to the board and investment committees — translate complex multi-layer financing structures into clear risk-return narratives for the board, external investors, and credit committees on the other side of the table.
•   Build the internal financial infrastructure — models, templates, underwriting standards, governance, reporting cadences, and lender compliance systems that scale with deal volume as Giga grows.

Requirements

•   10+ years in project finance, structured finance, or infrastructure finance, with a clear track record of leading deals from origination through close as the principal or lead banker — not as support.
•   Proven record of closing large-scale non-recourse and limited-recourse debt facilities for physical infrastructure assets, including construction-phase financing, at sizes that have materially moved a portfolio.
•   Deep experience structuring and negotiating across the full capital stack — senior debt, mezzanine, tax equity, back-leverage, and sponsor equity — with the judgment to know which structure fits which project.
•   Demonstrated ability to build a function from scratch or rebuild one at inflection, including hiring and managing a team, setting the operating cadence, and establishing the standards.
•   Established relationships across institutional lenders, infrastructure funds, and tax equity investors that you can activate from day one.
•   Elite modeling fluency — you can build a project finance model from a blank spreadsheet, sculpt debt against complex cash flows, and defend every assumption in front of a credit committee. You also know when not to be the one in the model.
•   Executive presence and narrative skill — you’re as credible in a board meeting as you are in a credit committee, and you can turn complex structures into clear risk-return stories for any audience.
•   High agency and builder’s instinct — you are energized, not unnerved, by the prospect of writing the playbook rather than following one.

Bonus Points

•   Direct experience financing power generation, energy, or data center infrastructure assets at scale.
•   Deep familiarity with ITC/PTC tax credit structures and transferability provisions under the Inflation Reduction Act, including structuring transfer deals with corporate buyers.
•   Senior background at an infrastructure-focused investment bank (Macquarie, Guggenheim, RBC, MUFG, KeyBanc) or an infrastructure fund (Stonepeak, GIP, Brookfield, IFM).
•   Experience with equipment-level financing, sale-leaseback structures, or asset-backed lending for industrial or power assets.
•   Experience leading a capital markets or project finance function inside an operating company, not just advising from the sell-side.
•   MBA, CFA, or graduate degree in a quantitative field.
•   Prior experience at a high-growth company during a scaling phase — you know what it feels like when the pace of the business outstrips the infrastructure, and you’re energized by that, not overwhelmed.
