About the role

Senior role leading end-to-end corporate development and deal structuring for Fluidstack's strategic finance initiatives in AI infrastructure and frontier compute.

Responsibilities

  • Own the corporate development pipeline end to end: which situations are worth pursuing, which instrument fits each one, and which to walk away from.
  • Structure deals that have no template, including joint ventures, minority stakes carrying governance rights, convertible and warrant-linked instruments, and opportunistic control acquisitions built for the specific situation.
  • Underwrite each opportunity against strategic and financial objectives, test against the critical path of the build with strategic sourcing and capacity planning, and decide when these diverge.
  • Negotiate terms with principals and their counsel on governance, exclusivity, offtake commitments, anti-dilution, information and board rights, and exit mechanics.
  • Carry each deal into the company, align CEO and legal on commitments and responsibilities, and deliver a clean close.

Qualifications

  • Leadership in principal-seat deal making: private equity, growth equity, special situations, infrastructure or energy investing, or corporate development within a company acquiring its own supply chain.
  • Direct involvement as the primary deal owner (the name on the deal) through from initial conversations to close or abandonment.
  • Ability to architect bespoke instruments and governance structures when no clean comparables exist.
