Our mission is to power electrified fleets with the most reliable network of charging centers. With increasing demand for electric vehicles, we are facing a once-in-a-century technology transition. The market for EV charging infrastructure is expected to grow to $1 trillion by 2040. The nation needs a long-term partner in the inevitable transition to all-electric transportation. At Terawatt, you will join your team in delivering quality end-to-end charging solutions. 

At Terawatt, we own, develop, operate, and maintain charging sites and operational solutions to form the backbone of commercial EV transport in the U.S. We execute humbly and with urgency to provide energy and charging solutions that delight our clients and support the transition to clean, electrified transport.

Impact to Climate Change:

Transportation creates 23% of all greenhouse gas emissions each year. Electrifying transportation is priority #1 to impact climate change. By electrifying fleets, we can mitigate more than 70% of mobility CO2 urban emissions, remove 50% of city air pollution, and help fleet operators meet Net Zero commitments.

We are building a team that represents a variety of backgrounds, perspectives, and skills. At Terawatt, we continuously strive to foster inclusion, humility, energizing relationships, and belonging, and welcome new ideas. We're growing and want you to grow with us. We encourage people from all backgrounds to apply.

Role Description As a Strategic Finance Analyst, you will be expected to analyze the financial feasibility of EV charging hub projects across multiple sectors and customer use cases as we work to bring our sites to live operations. You will work closely with all teams across Terawatt to incorporate cost estimates, energy and tariff structures, federal and state incentive information, and other critical assumptions into our financial underwriting models. You will prepare detailed reports, memos, and presentations for Company leadership, investors, and other key stakeholders to communicate complex financial and underwriting analysis in a clear and succinct manner. In addition to conducting investment analysis for new projects, you will support the Finance team’s long-term budgeting and planning efforts, as well as any capital markets and investor relations needs as they arise. You should also have a strong desire to take on responsibility outside of the core development underwriting workstreams to support other deal structures, financing arrangements, customer partnerships, and other internal initiatives. Your ability to work both independently and as a member of a small but nimble team is critical, as well as your desire and innovative mindset to operate as a key contributor within a fast-paced, early-stage company.
