Lead, Capital Markets - Infrastructure Financing

Details

About the role

We are seeking a lead for Capital Markets - Infrastructure Financing to drive the structuring and execution of financings that support Anthropic's compute infrastructure strategy. In this role, you will lead financing workstreams end-to-end, engage external financing counterparties, and partner closely with our compute, treasury, legal, finance, and accounting teams to bring transactions from structuring through close.

Compute is the foundation of frontier AI progress, and securing it requires tight coordination between our internal teams and external partners. The role may also extend to broader corporate finance and capital markets work as the company grows.

This role combines transaction execution with elements of financial analysis, relationship development, and strategic decision support. You will be an integral part of a team focused on securing the compute resources Anthropic needs to pursue its mission of developing safe, beneficial AI systems.

Responsibilities

• Own financing workstreams end-to-end: structuring, counterparty engagement, term negotiation, and execution support
• Translate infrastructure requirements into clear, investable frameworks and materials for financing counterparties
• Build and maintain rigorous financial models supporting transaction structuring and capital allocation decisions
• Develop repeatable internal frameworks and processes for evaluating and executing financing transactions
• Develop and maintain a credible network of financing and capital markets counterparties
• Partner with compute, treasury, legal, and leadership teams to keep transaction terms aligned with broader company priorities
• Support broader corporate finance and capital markets analysis as needed
• Represent Anthropic independently in negotiations with external counterparties, exercising sound judgment on risk allocation and commercial terms
• Prepare analysis and materials that distill complex financing decisions into clear recommendations for Finance leadership

Requirements

• Have led complex financing transactions through to close, including direct negotiation and documentation with external counterparties
• Able to run a financing workstream with external counterparties independently, without close supervision
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to influence diverse stakeholders and make complex structures legible to non-specialist leadership
• Ability to drive clarity in ambiguous environments and manage competing priorities with high-quality execution
• Strong financial modeling, structuring, credit analysis, and transaction documentation skills
• Commitment to safe AI development

Preferred qualifications

• 8-10 years of experience across infrastructure investing, private equity, private credit, and/or investment banking
• Experience in structured and project finance, including financial analysis of large-scale infrastructure investments
• Capital markets and capital structure experience

Logistics

• Minimum education: Bachelor’s degree or an equivalent combination of education, training, and/or experience
• Location-based hybrid policy: Currently, we expect all staff to be in one of our offices at least 25% of the time. However, some roles may require more time in our offices.
• Visa sponsorship: We do sponsor visas. However, Anthropic isn't able to successfully sponsor visas for every role and every candidate; if an offer is made, they will make every reasonable effort to get you a visa and retain an immigration lawyer to help with this.
