About the Job
We’re supercharging the clean economy:
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 40+ 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. Simultaneously, hundreds of billions of dollars are being invested in domestic supply chains for critical minerals and components. Developers and manufacturers will require trillions of dollars in capital to meet growing needs.
Unfortunately, the capital markets supporting this transformation remain opaque, fragmented, and complex. At Crux, we recognized the missing infrastructure: a central capital markets platform designed specifically for the next century of American energy and industry. By connecting counterparties, providing market intelligence, and streamlining transactions, we unlock faster decision making, lower cost of capital, and accelerated investment.

About the Company

Crux Climate
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Clean energy development is poised to boom, but we urgently need to make sustainable finance more efficient to move as quickly as needed. The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) will make hundreds of billions of dollars of tax credits available to companies building facilities or producing clean power and materials. And for the first time, these credits are transferable – creating a new and powerful market mechanism to fund energy transition projects. The market for transferable tax credits needs new standards, more buyers, expanded financial products, and purpose-built software. </span></p> <p><strong>Crux exists to make sustainable </strong><span style="font-weight: 400;"><strong>finance more efficient and interconnected. </strong></span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Our network and tools help developers, tax credit buyers, and financial institutions transact & manage transferable tax credits by streamlining price discovery, project diligence, transaction closing, and reporting.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Crux Climate is founded by </span><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/alfredjohnson01/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Alfred Johnson</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> & </span><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/allen-kramer-9810883a/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Allen Kramer</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">. They previously founded Mobilize (acquired by Insight Partners-owned EveryAction in 2020). Alfred was most recently Deputy Chief of Staff of the Treasury Department. Before Mobilize, he led Sales/People for Clara Lending, and was a Vice President at BlackRock. Before Mobilize, Allen worked at Bain & Company and Assured Labor. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We are an early-stage mission-driven company backed by some of the best investors, including Lowercarbon Capital, New System Ventures, Overture, Ardent Venture Partners, the Three Cairns Group, and QED via their Bolt program. These funds are joined by individual investors including the founders of multi-billion dollar finance and clean energy companies; top energy finance lawyers; and the partners of leading venture capital firms. Strategic investors in the company collectively generate billions of dollars of tax credits annually.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We are building a company where people care for each other, build and improve rapidly, and focus unremittingly on the needs of our partners and customers. We care about building a team that reflects and embraces the breadth of experiences in the country. </span></p>
