About the Company

The company is transforming the way clean energy projects are financed. Since 2024, its tax credit transfer business has partnered with major corporations to unlock over $8 billion in clean energy investment, including some of the industry’s largest transactions. Its compliance business is building disruptive software for developers to track operations and ensure regulatory compliance.

The company has built a consistently profitable business, focused on building for the long term. It raised a small seed round of funding in 2023, and has since repaid its investors in full. It does not have pressure from VCs or outside investors to chase short-term targets; it has the autonomy to focus on building a great long-term business. The company’s laser focus on solving tough problems has resulted in repeat customers and strong profitability since 2024.

The company has worked hard to build a mission-driven company culture that values creativity, collaboration, excellence, and speed without sacrificing fun. Its talented team includes experienced leaders from SunEdison, SolarCity, Tesla, GoodLeap, and other clean energy companies; the company is consistently amazed by what its 30+ person team of experts can accomplish.

The company looks for curious, smart, and kind colleagues with an entrepreneurial streak (it has quite a few ex-entrepreneurs on its team). The company is a great place to learn from energy finance experts and play a critical role in deploying clean energy technologies such as battery storage, nuclear, manufacturing, solar, and wind.
