About the Job
As Director, Finance and Strategy, you will translate Panthalassa's frontier technology into the language of capital markets and strategic partners. Reporting to the heads of strategy and finance and working closely with the CEO, you will:
- Craft decks with clear, digestible narratives that seamlessly incorporate robust financial projections, significant technical complexity, and multi-phased global strategic plans. Telling stories with data is your superpower.
- Produce in-depth reports on the AI-compute, data-center, and clean-energy markets; turn insights into decision-ready memos. You will live and breathe these markets and become an industry expert over time.
- Draft communications at a high volume: emails, one-pagers, follow-up analyses, and more.
- Maintain a robust CRM of key financial and strategic partners, and help to build critical relationships that lead to long-term, high-value deals.
- Occasionally participate in meetings, conferences, and events with external parties and partners, bringing clear and valuable input and strong relationship-building skills to every interaction.
Responsibilities
- Deck Creation - Build visually beautiful and compelling narratives in PowerPoint/Keynote/Figma.
- Financial Modeling - Develop and maintain dynamic models in Excel/GSheets/Quantrix (unit economics, financing waterfalls, sensitivities).
- Data Visualization - Turn insights into best-in-class charts and graphs, reducing complex market dynamics to simple, digestible visualizations.
- Market & Competitive Research - Size TAMs, benchmark costs, and monitor deals across data-center and energy-transition markets where public information isn't always available.
- Pipeline Management - Coordinate investor/partner contact lists, draft and polish email updates, and track engagement.
- Executive Support -Prepare briefing docs, Q&A, and redlines for meetings; capture and drive follow-ups to closure.
Required:
- 5+ years in venture capital, investment banking, high-growth infrastructure or energy tech startups, project-finance advisory, strategy consulting, or similar.
- Expert-level Excel (advanced formulas, macros a plus) and investor-grade presentation skills.
- Demonstrated "extreme ownership" and comfort with tight deadlines, ambiguous data, and senior-level scrutiny.
- Exceptional written communication; able to condense complex ideas into crisp bullets and headlines, and flex communication style for various consumers of documents.
- Bonus: expertise in data-center markets, energy economics, or GPU/cloud-compute capacity planning.
- Based in Portland, OR or willing to relocate or travel at least part-time (relocation assistance provided).
- Willingness to work non-standard hours, including evenings/weekends, to hit aggressive goals that occasionally span time zones.
- Some travel on short notice to meetings and conferences.
If hired for this full-time role, you will receive:
- Cash compensation of $250,000 - $320,000, depending on experience
- Equity in the company. We're all owners and if we're successful, this equity should be far and away the most valuable component of your compensation.
- A benefits package that helps you take care of yourself and your family, including:
- Flexible paid time off
- Health insurance (the company pays 100% of gold level PPO plan for full time employees, their partners, and dependents)
- Dental insurance (the company pays 100% for full time employees and 100% for their partners and dependents)
- Vision insurance (the company pays 100% for full time employees, their partners, and dependents)
- Disability insurance (the company pays 100% for a policy to provide long term financial support if you become disabled)
- Ability to contribute to tax-advantaged accounts, including 401(k), health FSA, and dependent care FSA
- Relocation assistance to facilitate your move to Portland (if needed).
Location
The ideal candidate will be based in Portland, Oregon, though we are open to remote/hybrid applicants who can travel to Portland up to 50% of the time. Our offices are located in Portland, Oregon.
