About Radiant

Radiant is an El Segundo, CA-based company building the world's only mass-produced, transportable nuclear microreactors. The U.S. grid is under growing strain, with power demand accelerating, driving higher utility costs, rising carbon emissions, and interconnection backlogs. Radiant has a solution, transportable, on-site power. Our first reactor, Kaleidos, is 1 megawatt: small enough to be factory-built, transported by land, sea, or air, and deployed wherever power is needed. 1 MW can power 1000 homes for five years. Ship it back and we refuel for a 20 year operating life. We made energy a product that can be used for critical infrastructure like military bases, data centers, hospitals, and remote sites, as well as the commercial main street businesses that keep America running. Founded in 2020, Radiant is under contract to deliver power to the U.S. Army, Navy and Air Force and has signed pre-order agreements with Equinix, with deployments beginning in 2028.

About the Role

Radiant is executing a significant, multi-year capital program across a range of financing vehicles to support our manufacturing scale up, R&D and internal CapEx. As Structured Finance Manager, you will own designing and executing ITC (Investment Tax Credits) monetization strategy, governing compliance obligations, and providing financial structuring analysis on major contracts and capital transactions.

This is a high-visibility, largely individual-contributor-to-start role reporting to the VP of Finance with the mandate to scale into a broader structured finance function as our capital program grows.

What You'll Own

ITC Strategy

Structure ITC elections and monetization pathways working with tax and legal advisors to select the optimal framework, as well as own qualification and optimization of bonus adders.

Structure contracting to ensure credit eligibility and rate terms ahead of phase-downs or rule changes, working proactively against deadlines.

Build documentation infrastructure needed to withstand IRS, lender, and tax equity diligence and keep it audit-ready on an ongoing basis.

Own recurring reporting obligations tied to the credit (Treasury/IRS filings, transferability registration, and investor/lender reporting) ensuring nothing is missed as Radiant scales.

Monitor recapture risk across each asset's required compliance period following placed-in-service, flagging any operational or ownership changes.

Coordinate with EPC/construction contractors, third-party auditors, Legal and Accounting so compliance obligations are built into contracts up front and monitored continuously.

Structured Financial Product Management

Map out structured financing options, identify key terms and implications / exposure for Radiant.

Lead or support negotiations and deal executions with lenders and other financial partners.

Lead tracking and internal/investor reporting related to structured financial products.

Liaise with Strategic Finance, Risk & Compliance, and other Radiant teams on forward-looking exposure and risk mitigation.

Government Contracting & Multi-Entity Structuring

Provide financial structuring analysis on major government and commercial contracts, including deal economics, financing implications, and entity-level considerations.

Support liability structuring across Radiant's multi-entity architecture in coordination with Legal, Accounting, and the Risk & Compliance function.

Advise on the financial implications of government contracting structures as they relate to capital deployment and financing.

Required Qualifications & Skills

8+ years of experience in structured finance, project finance, tax equity, or a related capital markets discipline; experience in manufacturing, energy, or capital-intensive infrastructure sectors strongly preferred.

Bachelor's degree in finance, accounting, economics, or a related field; MBA or relevant advanced degree a plus.

Direct experience with Investment Tax Credit (ITC) or similar tax credit monetization structures (tax equity, transferability).
