Position Overview

SyntheticFi is growing at an extraordinary 20%+ MoM over the past year, powered by a product that our target customers - financial advisors (RIAs) - already view as a true differentiator for their practice, helping them retain AUM and win new clients.

With a proven product and strong inbound demand, we’re now at an inflection point. Scaling further requires building a durable, flexible capital layer that can support rapid client onboarding and refinancing activity.

We are hiring a Head of Capital Markets to join our leadership team to design and execute SyntheticFi’s capital strategy, including structuring and securing credit facilities (e.g., delayed draw / warehouse lines) that power our lending platform.

You’ll work directly with our cofounder and CIO Joseph Wang, to build and scale SyntheticFi’s financing infrastructure to support its rapid growth.

As the Head of Capital Markets, you will:

  1. Structure, execute, maintain, and expand SyntheticFi’s core credit facilities, including delayed draw and warehouse lines to support client refinancing.
  2. Lead end-to-end debt fundraising processes, including outreach, negotiation, diligence, and closing.
  3. Manage relationships with lenders, including family offices, HNW/UHNW individuals, credit funds, and other structured capital providers.
  4. Translate SyntheticFi’s product, collateral, and performance data into clear, compelling materials for external capital providers.
  5. Support broader fundraising efforts, including preparation of investor materials and data rooms for both debt and equity processes.

What Success Looks Like:

  1. A scalable, cost-efficient credit facility that supports SyntheticFi’s growth
  2. Efficient and successful execution of capital raises
  3. Strong relationships with high-quality lending partners
  4. Clear, investor-ready data and reporting infrastructure
  5. A capital strategy that compounds and expands as the company grows

Required Qualifications

  1. 5+ years of experience in capital markets, structured finance, private credit, or investment banking (LevFin / structured products)
  2. Direct experience in structuring or executing credit facilities, warehouse lines, or asset-backed financing
  3. Experience working with external capital providers, both individuals (UHNW/family office) and institutional lenders (credit funds)
  4. Excellent communication skills, with the ability to translate complex financial concepts and operational processes to diverse audiences
  5. Ability to operate independently and drive complex processes end-to-end

Preferred Qualifications

  1. Experience working in a high-growth startup or building new financial products
  2. Experience in fintech, lending platforms, or asset-backed businesses
  3. Demonstrated ability to independently drive outreach to lenders and manage financing processes end-to-end
  4. Exposure to both debt and equity fundraising processes

Compensation

We care about talent, and we show it. SyntheticFi offers a top-tier compensation and benefits package with meaningful upside options.

  1. Base Salary: $125,000 - $175,000
  2. Bonus: up to 10% of base salary.
  3. Stock option compensation: 0.25-1.00%.

About SyntheticFi

SyntheticFi was founded by Tony and Joseph after recognizing a critical gap in the market: affordable borrowing options for advisors and their clients. Drawing on deep expertise in both finance and technology, we built the first viable securities-backed line of credit product powered by box spreads, an institutional borrowing strategy now made accessible at scale. Since launch, SyntheticFi has grown at an extraordinary pace, sustaining 20%+ MoM growth, and is the category-defining leader in wealthtech.

SyntheticFi is a YC company with a recent round from partner RIAs and wealth-tech VCs (Ritholtz, Social Leverage, NextGenVP / Brown Advisory).
