Head of Origination - Fintech; AI Infrastructure

Our client is a Series A-funded fintech platform enabling emerging AI infrastructure operators to access efficient, non-recourse capital for GPU expansion. By transforming compute capacity into a bankable asset class, the platform simplifies and accelerates access to growth financing for next-generation cloud providers. Their transparent, technology-driven framework allows borrowers to unlock capital against productive income-generating infrastructure with greater speed and flexibility than traditional financing models.

This is an extremely flat organization that values integrity, high-agency, and the ability to operate in ambiguity above all else.

The team draws experience from DRW, Deutsche Bank, Rockpoint, Nansen, Balancer, and other leading DeFi and Trad Fi institutions. Backed by top-tier investors including Framework Ventures, Dragonfly, DCG, Nascent, and Ethereal. They've built financial and blockchain products facilitating hundreds of millions in transaction volume across diverse asset types. No middle managers—they move quickly from idea to execution.
