Responsibilities
- Develop and own the strategy for Galaxy's entry into AI infrastructure markets - define where Galaxy will engage across the range of modes (brokerage, dealing, market-making, structured lending) and how to sequence products so the business earns flow, relationships, and market data ahead of financialization
- Originate transactions and build the counterparty network across AI labs, neoclouds, hyperscalers, data-center and power developers, utilities and IPPs, crypto-mining operators, and financial counterparties, developing the proprietary market intelligence that any downstream product depends on
- Design and structure bespoke instruments - forwards, swaps, options, and take-or-pay and capacity-reservation structures - that let clients hedge cost exposure or monetize idle capacity across the AI infrastructure stack, spanning power and electricity, compute and GPU capacity, and inference and token cost
- Develop pricing and risk frameworks for instruments with limited or no existing liquidity, including mark-to-model valuation, basis decomposition, and proxy and cross-hedging methodologies
- Build a credit and structured-lending capability where it fits the opportunity - underwriting GPU fleets and data-center deployments against the quality and durability of their contracted cash flows
- Source liquidity, build exchange and OTC connectivity, and stand up the desk's operational and control infrastructure with legal, credit, and quantitative teams - risk limits, documentation, collateral arrangements, and booking processes - and, as the business matures, design and implement the principal risk-taking framework that integrates proprietary positioning into the client suite
- Build and lead the team across origination, trading, structuring, and credit
- represent Galaxy with exchanges, benchmark and index providers, counterparties, and partners
- 8+ years building and running a markets business - trading, brokerage, structured products, or physical commodities - with a track record of taking a franchise from zero to scale and running risk or structuring transactions
- Demonstrated ability to price and manage risk in illiquid or nascent markets - comfort with basis risk, mark-to-model valuation, and proxy hedging
Requirements
- Working knowledge of the AI compute ecosystem - data-center development, neoclouds, GPU economics, hyperscaler dynamics
Nice to have

- Experience in or alongside an AI business, cloud provider, data-center operator, or large energy offtaker, with corresponding understanding of cost structures and procurement
- Experience financing or operating capital-intensive physical infrastructure
- Crypto-mining operations experience and the associated power and hardware economics
- Creative - many of the relevant instruments do not yet exist and will need to be conceived and brought to market by the desk
- Driven and commercially focused, with a clear ownership mentality appropriate to a role of this scope
