- Coordinate with internal stakeholders (Corporate Development, Capital Markets, FP&A, Treasury, Accounting, Tax, Executive team and others) and manage outside counsel to drive efficiently to signing and close.
- Debt Administration & Compliance :
- In collaboration with crossfunctional partners, build and own a lender deliverables and compliance calendar; prepare and/or review periodic compliance certificates, officer's certificates and required information packages.
- Maintain the collateral and lender reporting package - collateral coverage, lien perfection and account control hygiene, insurance compliance, financial covenant calculations, and rating agency materials.
- Manage ongoing consent, waiver and amendment workstreams, and proactively flag covenant and lender-approval implications of contemplated business actions.
- Process Improvement: Monitor legal and market developments affecting GPU and data center financing; create playbooks, templates, trackers, and closing checklists; streamline financing processes, covenant monitoring, and data room hygiene.
- As‑Needed Legal Support : Collaborate on related corporate, finance, data center infrastructure or tax matters that intersect with capital formation and debt financing; pitch in on special projects as priorities evolve.

- 4+ years of law firm experience (in-house experience a plus) with demonstrated strength in supporting complex debt finance transactions and secured transactions.
- Experience coordinating multi‑stakeholder closings and running diligence processes.
- Exceptional drafting and negotiation skills, with an ability to balance legal risk against business and commercial objectives - particularly in financings where legal terms shape operating mechanics (collateral identification, customer-contract interfaces, deployment cadence).
- Strong interpersonal and communication skills; adept at collaborating with stakeholders at all levels.
- Proactive mindset, meticulous attention to detail, and ability to manage competing priorities in a fast-paced environment.
Requirements
- Direct experience on GPU or AI compute financing transactions (e.g., asset-backed or SPV-level facilities collateralized by GPU assets).
- Project finance, asset‑based lending and equipment financing exposure, ideally in AI infrastructure, digital infrastructure, or other capital‑intensive tech.
