The Opportunity

Join a fast-moving renewable energy developer and IPP focused on distributed solar and storage projects across the U.S. As Counsel on the Structured Finance team, you’ll be a key legal lead on financing transactions that underpin the company’s growth, from tax equity and credit transfers to construction and back-leverage debt.

What You’ll Do

  • Draft, review, and negotiate key transaction documents—credit agreements, security packages, equity structures, etc.
  • Manage closing workflows and timelines, coordinating internal teams, counsel, and external partners
  • Advise on financeability and tax eligibility of project contracts (PPAs, EPCs, etc.)
  • Support ongoing compliance and commercial decision-making tied to financing agreements

What You Bring

  • JD and admission to practice law in the U.S.
  • 4+ years in project finance or structured finance, ideally with renewable energy exposure
  • Deep familiarity with tax equity structures, credit agreements, and multi-party closings
  • Ability to translate legal complexity into actionable advice for business teams
  • Comfortable juggling multiple deals and timelines in a fast-paced, mission-driven environment
