at Crusoe
🏢 About Crusoe
Crusoe is uniquely positioned at the intersection of energy innovation and technology, transforming stranded natural gas that would otherwise be flared into eco-friendly power for data centers. This dual mission of reducing environmental impact while powering the digital economy makes it an attractive employer for those seeking purpose-driven finance work. The company's focus on sustainable infrastructure financing creates opportunities to work on cutting-edge projects that combine environmental, social, and governance (ESG) considerations with traditional capital markets.
About This Role
This Analyst role supports Crusoe's capital formation strategy across debt facilities, asset-backed securitizations, and equity issuances, directly contributing to the company's growth and environmental mission. You'll build complex financial models to evaluate financing proposals and analyze how different capital structures impact the balance sheet and cost of capital. Your work will help secure the funding needed to expand Crusoe's innovative energy-to-data-center infrastructure.
💡 A Day in the Life
A typical day might involve updating financial models to analyze a new debt facility proposal, coordinating with legal teams on documentation for an upcoming financing round, and preparing market analysis on interest rate trends affecting Crusoe's capital strategy. You'd likely collaborate with treasury and development teams to align financing options with specific project timelines and requirements.
🚀 Application Tools
🎯 Who Crusoe Is Looking For
- Has 1-3 years at an investment bank, commercial bank, or active corporate treasury group with direct experience in Debt Capital Markets (DCM), Structured Finance, or Leveraged Finance

- Possesses exceptional financial modeling skills specifically for stress-testing capital structures and analyzing financing proposals
- Shows genuine interest in Crusoe's unique business model of converting stranded energy to data center power and understands the capital requirements for infrastructure-heavy companies
📝 Tips for Applying to Crusoe
Quantify your transaction experience: Specify the number, size, and type of financing deals you've worked on (e.g., 'supported 3 debt issuances totaling $500M' rather than 'experience with debt financing')
Tailor your resume to highlight structured finance or asset-backed securitization experience, as Crusoe's infrastructure-heavy business likely utilizes these financing methods

Prepare a portfolio example of a complex financial model you've built for capital structure analysis, ready to discuss during interviews
Emphasize any experience with energy, infrastructure, or technology company financing, as this directly relates to Crusoe's sector
