We've raised more than $120MM across debt and equity, with material room to scale our facilities and loan book. We're looking for a seasoned capital markets professional to work directly with the CEO and Finance teams. ## What You'll Do - Own the borrowing base process end-to-end: weekly and monthly borrowing base certificates, eligibility testing, covenant compliance tracking (advance rates, concentration limits, minimum liquidity, leverage caps), and lender reporting across our warehouse and subordinated facilities. - Source and manage lender relationships: cultivate new potential lenders — credit funds, banks, forward-flow buyers, and warehouse providers — including preparing data rooms, fielding diligence requests, and running processes through to term sheet. - Build and maintain the company's core financial models: loan-level cash flow and vintage models, facility-level advance rate and returns models, the corporate three-statement model, and scenario and sensitivity analysis. - Prepare Board and investor materials: Board presentations, lender updates, and analysis supporting equity and debt fundraising. - Support negotiation of credit agreements and amendments alongside management and outside counsel — advance rate tiers, eligibility criteria, covenants, and intercreditor terms. - Partner with the data, credit, and finance teams to turn portfolio performance into strategic decisions. ## What We're Looking For - 5–15 years in investment banking, private credit, private equity, or capital markets; structured finance, specialty finance, or consumer lending coverage strongly preferred. - Hands-on experience preparing borrowing bases, financial projections, and other detailed lender-facing reporting. - Advanced financial modeling skills in Excel and comfort working with loan-level data; experience using SQL to query data and build automated reports. - Exposure to forward-flow agreements, warehouse facilities, and mezzanine debt. - Experience interacting directly with lenders, investors, or credit committees. - Strong written and visual communication — you can turn a model into a Board-ready story. - Self-starter who thrives in a lean team with high ownership. - Bilingual English/Spanish required. Location Our finance team is based in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, and that's our preference for this role given the close day-to-day work with the CEO and the rest of the team.
