Strategic Transactions Manager, Software GTM

Overview 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 45+ 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. At the same time, hundreds of billions of dollars are being invested into domestic supply chains for critical minerals and components. Meeting this moment will require trillions in capital. Today’s capital markets are not built for this scale. They are fragmented, opaque, and highly manual. Crux is building the missing infrastructure: a central capital markets platform designed for the next century of American energy and industry. By connecting counterparties, providing market intelligence, and streamlining execution, we enable faster decisions, lower cost of capital, and more efficient deployment.
