About the Job

We’re supercharging the clean economy:

Crux is the capital markets platform changing the way clean energy and manufacturing projects are financed in the U.S. Crux’s platform, market intelligence, and expert team help developers and manufacturers unlock financing through all stages of project development and operation. 

Our team of 40+ is composed of experts in energy, tax, finance, government, and technology. We have raised $77 million in capital from some of the best investors, including Andreessen Horowitz, Lowercarbon Capital, New System Ventures, Overture, Ardent Venture Partners, QED, Canapi, and others. These funds are joined by strategic investors including Pattern Energy, Clearway Energy, EDF Renewables, Intersect Power, LS Power, Orsted, Hartree Partners, Liberty Mutual Strategic Ventures, MassMutual Ventures, and OMERS Ventures.

An inflection point in American energy and manufacturing:

Energy demand is growing for the first time in 20 years, driven by surging manufacturing, transportation, electrification, and data centers. Simultaneously, hundreds of billions of dollars are being invested in domestic supply chains for critical minerals and components. Developers and manufacturers will require trillions of dollars in capital to meet growing needs.

Unfortunately, the capital markets supporting this transformation remain opaque, fragmented, and complex. At Crux, we recognized the missing infrastructure: a central capital markets platform designed specifically for the next century of American energy and industry. By connecting counterparties, providing market intelligence, and streamlining transactions, we unlock faster decision making, lower cost of capital, and accelerated investment.

About The Role

The traditional process for financing clean energy is manual & onerous. We’ve built products that solve part of that problem but now need to expand its breadth & depth in a rigorous, analytical way. We’re excited to add two new mid career product/customer focused engineers to help us with this!

Our tech stack is composed of Typescript, React, SQL, built on top of Vercel and Supabase PaaS/BaaS. Given the complexity of our domain, we look for folks who are deeply motivated to learn, do not hesitate to ask questions, and are committed to perpetual learning in order to leverage the latest technologies and tools (e.g. AI) to execute on our mission.

We are an experienced and highly collaborative group of ten that has prioritized team diversity from the beginning. We take psychological safety and inclusion seriously, and actively encourage sharing lots of ideas and opinions - it’s how we do our best work!

What you’ll do

  • Collaborate with engineers and cross-functional partners to build features that support the renewable energy transition

  • Support customers and/or domain subject matter experts directly with experimentation and prototyping

  • Write readable, well-structured code with an eye towards usability, performance, and scalability

  • Write tests and documentation alongside your code for quality and maintainability

  • Participate in engineering learning and coworking sessions in order to build our team culture and developing our technical best practices

What We Are Looking For

  • 4+ years of professional full-stack engineering experience:

  • B.S. in computer science, computer engineering, related field; or equivalent combination of education and direct professional experience

  • Demonstrated proficiency in Javascript/Typescript, React, and SQL

  • Authorized to work in the US or Canada

  • You are a self-starter with a strong sense of ownership and desire to learn and grow

  • You enjoy building and cultivating a collaborative and inclusive team environment, and have worked on fully remote teams

Compensation 

  • $140,000-$170,000 USD

  • Company wide bonus tied to revenue goals

  • Stock options

  • Full health benefits, 20 days PTO, 10 company holidays

This is a fully remote role, with opportunities to co-work in SF, Seattle, DC, or NYC.

We believe that all people are capable of great things. We encourage you to apply even if you do not meet all of the requirements that are listed within this job description.

We provide equal employment opportunities to all applicants without regard to race, color, religion, age, sex, national origin, disability status, genetics, protected veteran status, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, or any other characteristic protected by law.

About the Company

Crux Climate

Clean energy development is poised to boom, but we urgently need to make sustainable finance more efficient to move as quickly as needed. The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) will make hundreds of billions of dollars of tax credits available to companies building facilities or producing clean power and materials. And for the first time, these credits are transferable – creating a new and powerful market mechanism to fund energy transition projects. The market for transferable tax credits needs new standards, more buyers, expanded financial products, and purpose-built software. 

Crux exists to make sustainable finance more efficient and interconnected.

Our network and tools help developers, tax credit buyers, and financial institutions transact & manage transferable tax credits by streamlining price discovery, project diligence, transaction closing, and reporting.

Crux Climate is founded by Alfred Johnson & Allen Kramer. They previously founded Mobilize (acquired by Insight Partners-owned EveryAction in 2020). Alfred was most recently Deputy Chief of Staff of the Treasury Department. Before Mobilize, he led Sales/People for Clara Lending, and was a Vice President at BlackRock. Before Mobilize, Allen worked at Bain & Company and Assured Labor. 

We are an early-stage mission-driven company backed by some of the best investors, including Lowercarbon Capital, New System Ventures, Overture, Ardent Venture Partners, the Three Cairns Group, and QED via their Bolt program. These funds are joined by individual investors including the founders of multi-billion dollar finance and clean energy companies; top energy finance lawyers; and the partners of leading venture capital firms. Strategic investors in the company collectively generate billions of dollars of tax credits annually.

We are building a company where people care for each other, build and improve rapidly, and focus unremittingly on the needs of our partners and customers. We care about building a team that reflects and embraces the breadth of experiences in the country.
