Capital Markets Manager - Solar Finance Career

This Manager-level role at Nautilus Solar sits at an intersection of high-demand skills
: renewable energy project finance, tax equity structuring, and capital markets execution. These competencies are increasingly scarce and well-compensated as the clean energy sector scales under the Inflation Reduction Act.

Compensation benchmark: The $155,000–$165,000 base plus bonus is competitive for a Manager in renewable energy project finance. Comparable roles at large developers or investment banks in major cities often command $160,000–$200,000+ with carry, so this is at the lower end for top-tier candidates — though the fully remote structure and 100% employer-paid benefits partially offset this.

Green flags:

• Direct ownership of funding work streams at a relatively senior level — real decision-making exposure, not just support.
• Mentorship responsibility over Associates signals a path to Director/VP.
• Exposure to multiple deal types (tax equity, construction debt, term debt) accelerates specialization in a niche with strong exit options.
• Entrepreneurial environment at what appears to be a growth-stage company — faster career velocity than at large institutions.

Watch for:

• "Fast-paced, entrepreneurial" can mean resource constraints and high workload — clarify team size and deal pipeline volume.
• No mention of equity or profit-sharing, which is common at energy developers of this stage.

Skills developed here — Solar ITC structuring, project finance modeling, lender management — are directly transferable to private equity, infrastructure funds, and large-cap energy developers.

We are seeking a talented and highly motivated Manager to join Nautilus Solar's Capital Markets team.

The Capital Markets team leads capital origination and financing execution for Nautilus' portfolio including construction and term debt as well as tax equity. The Manager will take a leading role in owning funding work streams while helping mentor the team's Associates.

This position is ideal for finance professionals inspired by the opportunity to deepen their experience in renewable energy transactions, financial modeling, and capital provider management in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment. The Manager will work directly with Nautilus' key external partners, including tax equity investors, lenders, and third-party consultants. They will also work directly with multiple teams at Nautilus including Construction, Acquisitions & Delivery, FP&A and Nautilus leadership.

The position is a fully remote opportunity with occasional travel.
