Senior Capital Formation Associate
About the role
Enfinity Global is seeking a sharp, detail-focused Senior Associate to join our Capital & Investments team in Miami. This person will own investment underwriting across our pipeline — running deep model reviews, critically checking assumptions, stress testing, and building extensive sensitivities — while mentoring and quality-checking junior team members, leading financing transactions, and preparing and presenting investment committee (IC) memos. The Senior Associate reports to the VP, Capital Formation and partners with them day-to-day across underwriting and capital formation.
It is a high-impact role at the center of scaling a highly ambitious, aggressive multi-gigawatt (GW) power platform. You will underwrite across the frontier of the energy transition — utility-scale renewables, stand-alone battery storage (BESS), behind-the-meter generation, and power for co-located digital infrastructure serving AI compute — placing you at the leading edge of where clean power and the AI buildout converge.
Responsibilities
- Own investment underwriting across the US pipeline: deep model reviews, critical assumptions checks, stress testing, and extensive Monte Carlo and scenario sensitivities
- Act as a quality-control gate on investment analysis — validating model integrity, key value drivers, and downside cases before capital is committed
- Prepare, review, and present IC memos that frame the thesis, risks, returns, and recommended structure for each opportunity
- Act as a player-coach to a fast-developing analyst team — setting the bar for modeling and underwriting rigor, coaching juniors on technique, and quality-checking their analytical output
- Lead financing transactions end-to-end — diligence, structuring, negotiation, and execution through close — across project finance, tax equity, and debt
- Build and pressure-test institutional-grade financial models across the platform's asset classes — utility-scale renewables, stand-alone battery storage, behind-the-meter generation, and co-located digital infrastructure for AI compute — spanning both development-stage and operating assets
- Translate technical, commercial, and market inputs into defensible underwriting assumptions and risk-adjusted return expectations
- Partner with the development, engineering, legal, and finance teams to diligence and de-risk opportunities ahead of IC
- Conduct market research on power market fundamentals, merchant curves, interest rate environments, and tax equity dynamics to inform underwriting
- Play a key role in scaling the platform — building the underwriting frameworks, tools, and standards that hold up as deal volume grows
Requirements
- BA/BS degree in Business, Finance, Economics, Engineering, or a related discipline; advanced degree or CFA a plus
- 5-7 years of transaction and investing experience, ideally in the energy sector (renewables strongly preferred), gained at a developer, sponsor, infrastructure fund, private equity firm, or investment bank
- Demonstrated ownership of investment underwriting — building and critically reviewing project finance models, debt sizing, and DSCR/LLCR analysis, and pressure-testing key assumptions
- Hands-on experience with stress testing, scenario analysis, and Monte Carlo sensitivities
- Experience preparing and presenting IC memos or equivalent investment recommendations to a senior audience
- Strong command of power market fundamentals, renewable energy, energy storage, and tax equity structures (partnership flip, sale-leaseback)
- Track record of leading, or playing a lead role in, financing transactions through financial close
Skills
- Player-Coach Leadership: Sets the bar for modeling and underwriting rigor; coaches and quality-checks a high-potential analyst team without formal line authority and without micromanaging
- Quality-Control Mindset: Relentless attention to detail and personal accountability for accuracy — the instinct to find the one assumption that breaks the model before results reach the IC or investors
- Autonomy & Ownership: Operates independently in a lean team where senior members work as individual contributors; structures own workload and delivers reliable output with no management layer reviewing the work
- Cross-Office Collaboration: Builds trusted day-to-day working relationships with the global team of Senior Analyst and Associate, keeping the cross-border collaboration interface seamless and analytical standards consistent across locations
- Process & Systems Thinking: Drive to automate and standardize — improving current tools and processes rather than working around them, as part of the team's transformation
- Executive & Investor Presence: Credible presenting at senior leadership level; comfortable managing interfaces with long-term investors and existing shareholders on risk appetite, return thresholds, and portfolio strategy
- Communication: Distills complex analysis into clear, concise, IC-ready recommendations, both written and verbal
- Problem-Solving: Analyzes financial data, draws insights, and makes data-driven decisions under time pressure
- Urgency & Adaptability: Comfortable operating with pace and ownership in a fast-scaling, multi-GW, high-growth environment

- Health Care Plan (Medical, Dental & Vision)
- Retirement Plan (401k, IRA)
- Life Insurance (Basic, Voluntary & AD&D)
