- Cultivate and own senior relationships with a global and local network of commercial and investment banks, financial institutions, rating agencies, institutional investors, and key partners to support the Company’s funding, liquidity, and risk management needs.
- Identify, assess, and mitigate financial risks including insurance exposure, guarantee requirements, covenants, foreign exchange (FX), interest rate, counterparty, and liquidity risks.
- Monitor counterparty credit risk across banking relationships and investment counterparties.
- Own financial technology platforms, ensuring optimal configuration, integration, and performance.

- Proven experience building or scaling treasury functions, processes, systems, and controls within startup, newly formed, or rapidly evolving organizations.
- Demonstrated success operating in fast-paced, entrepreneurial environments with the ability to balance strategic leadership and hands-on execution.
- Strong analytical, financial modeling, problem-solving, and decision-making capabilities with exceptional attention to detail.
- Deep experience in capital markets and treasury operations, including execution of credit facilities, term loans, project finance, revolving credit arrangements, and other financing instruments.
