Senior Portfolio Manager

About Wunder

Wunder was founded with one simple vision: to address the greatest crisis of our generation by accelerating the proliferation of solar energy. Members of our team have raised hundreds of millions of dollars in private equity, developed innovative energy infrastructure solutions for the Department of Energy, and built digital products that are used and loved by millions of people. Now, we’re saving the world.

Our team is a unique hybrid of finance, engineering, design, and business development. Although our backgrounds and responsibilities vary wildly, we’re a tight-knit bunch that loves cross-pollination. And while our mission is big, we try to keep things light. We provide a happy, productive workplace, and we’re constantly improving it! You’ll find our hybrid team taking coffee walks or collaborating on Zoom to solve complex problems together, while also cycling, hiking, climbing, skiing, camping, and dining all over our mile-high home: Colorado.

​​Wunder is committed to creating and maintaining an inclusive workplace in which all employees have an opportunity to participate and contribute to the success of the business. At Wunder, people are valued for their skills, experiences, and unique perspectives. Our commitment to equity is of course embodied in company policy, but it’s also evident every day in how we conduct business and the internal initiatives and programs we provide for our team.

The Role

We have an amazing opportunity for an energetic, analytical, detail-oriented, and experienced operations professional to join our fast-growing team. Like the rest of us, this person will wear many hats; you will work closely with our founders, partners, customers, and investors to deploy solar into the commercial and industrial market. Internally, as a member of Wunder’s Operations team, you will ensure that our rapidly growing portfolio of solar projects is built of the highest caliber and will hold a key role in the deployment of solar assets. This will also require implementing and improving processes and procedures to ensure data quality, mitigate potential transaction errors, and manage logistical complexity as we scale our platform. Daily activities will include, but not be limited to, leading our capital management, insurance management, and payment processes, developing and iterating workflows to maximize efficacy and efficiency, and collaborating with team members across the organization. Externally, you’ll be engaging with service providers and capital partners to solve problems, answer questions, refine processes, and ensure their experience with Wunder is top-notch.

If you get excited about bringing an entirely new asset class to market, building an organization aimed at saving the world, and ensuring that all of the details needed to make all of that happen are covered, this is the role for you.
