Job Description

Welcome to Energy Vault® (NYSE:NRGV), a global energy storage and power infrastructure company focused on owning, operating, and enabling resilient, dispatchable energy assets.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead end-to-end legal structuring and negotiation of project finance transactions, including construction loans, term debt, tax equity, back-leverage facilities, and permanent financing for battery storage, renewable energy, and data center projects. • Draft and negotiate credit agreements, security packages, depositary and accounts agreements, consent and assignment agreements, and all related financing documents with lenders, tax equity investors, and institutional counterparties. • Advise on financing structures for build-own-operate (BOO) assets, including collateral structures, security interests, and intercreditor arrangements. • Manage lender due diligence processes and coordinate with lenders' counsel through financial close. • Advise on IRA tax credit structures, including investment tax credits (ITC) and production tax credits (PTC), domestic content requirements, energy communities, and Foreign Entity of Concern (FEOC) compliance as it relates to financing eligibility and tax credit qualification. • Support refinancings, amendments, waivers, and ongoing lender compliance matters post-close. • Simultaneously manage multiple transactions at varying stages of execution without loss of quality or attention to detail. • Support corporate-level debt facilities, revolving credit lines, and other balance sheet financing activities. • Advise on entity structuring and capitalization for project-level subsidiaries and holding company arrangements. • Assist with corporate governance matters tied to financing transactions. • Familiarity with EPC contracts, equipment procurement agreements, PPAs, and interconnection agreements is a plus, primarily in the context of bankability review and lender consent processes.

Requirements

• J.D. from an accredited law school. • Member of a state bar in good standing. • 8–15 years of project finance experience, with significant exposure to energy, battery storage, infrastructure, or data center financings. • Demonstrated track record closing complex project finance transactions from term sheet through financial close, including tax equity structures (ITC and/or PTC). • Working knowledge of IRA incentive structures, domestic content and FEOC compliance requirements, and how they interact with project financing and tax credit eligibility. • Experience with construction financing and term conversion is highly valued. • Corporate finance or capital markets experience is a plus. • Proven ability to manage a high-volume workload — multiple active deals, competing priorities, and tight deadlines — with composure and sound commercial judgment. • Commercially minded with strong instincts for practical risk allocation; able to distinguish issues worth fighting for from those that are not. • Excellent drafting and negotiation skills; confident advising and presenting to senior leadership and external counterparties. • Willingness to travel domestically and/or internationally, up to 10%. • Comfortable thriving in fast-paced, rapid growth environments. • A passion for sustainability, our mission, and our vision is a bonus!

Benefits & Perks

• Annual bonus plan. • Restricted Stock Units (RSUs). • 401K employer matching. • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision plans for employees and family. • Flexible Spending Account. • Company-paid Life insurance, Short- and Long-term disability insurance. • 8-weeks for Paternity leave. • Generous holiday allowance. • Flexible time off plus sick leave. • Reimbursement for home office equipment, phone, and internet expenses.
