Vaulted Deep is a carbon removal and waste management company that permanently sequesters organic waste deep underground to prevent carbon emissions and protect communities from contamination. The company collects otherwise unusable organic materials such as excess manure, treated sewage, paper sludge, and agricultural byproducts, then injects them into deep subsurface geological formations using technology adapted from the oil and gas industry. This dual-purpose approach simultaneously addresses organic waste disposal challenges and removes carbon from the atmosphere on a permanent, multi-millennial timescale. Vaulted Deep's mission centers on delivering scalable, verifiable carbon removal while providing practical waste management solutions for municipalities, agricultural operations, and industrial facilities. The company works with a network of local partners including trucking companies, waste operators, feedyards, and public works departments, generating economic activity in the communities where it operates. Its carbon removal credits are certified by Isometric, lending scientific credibility to its permanence claims. The company operates its flagship Great Plains Facility in Hutchinson, Kansas, which has been operational since 2023, and is developing additional sites including the Monarch Fields Facility in Weld County, Colorado. Vaulted Deep was recognized as the No. 3 Most Innovative Company in North America by Fast Company in 2026, reflecting its novel positioning at the intersection of waste management and carbon removal.

Vaulted is a waste management company that removes carbon. We take organic waste that can pollute our environment above ground and safely inject it ultra deep underground—permanently removing carbon from the atmosphere while protecting local land, air, and water. Vaulted is based in Houston, San Francisco, and Kansas.

With a growing team of 70+ people across the country, Vaulted signed the second largest carbon removal offtake ever with Microsoft in July 2025 and is rapidly expanding to new sites.

Vaulted's proprietary technology builds on decades of expertise to deliver safe, durable carbon and waste management solutions now, at scale.

About Vaulted Deep

About the Role

We're hiring a Financial Analyst to join our Houston-based team, reporting to the Director of Strategic Finance. This is a true generalist seat at a project-development company: you'll split your time across project financial modeling, debt facility compliance, and corporate financial analysis. You'll work directly with senior leadership and touch nearly every part of the business — site economics, lender reporting, budgeting, and the analysis that supports our capital raising.

This role is well suited to someone with a project finance, infrastructure, or energy background who wants broader exposure than a single-asset or single-function seat provides.

What You'll Do

Site & Project Modeling (second chair)

• Support development and maintenance of site-level financial models

• Run scenarios and sensitivities to support site development decisions, commercial negotiations, and investment approvals

• Maintain model integrity, version control, and documentation

Debt Facility Compliance

• Own the compliance calendar: covenant calculations, compliance certificates, and lender reporting packages

• Track conditions precedent, reserve account requirements, and reporting deadlines across a multi-entity structure

• Coordinate with accounting, legal, and lender counterparties on deliverables

Financial Analysis

• Support monthly reporting, budget vs. actual variance analysis, and cash forecasting across multiple entities

• Build analyses for board materials, investor updates, and fundraising diligence

• Ad hoc analysis for leadership across commercial, operational, and strategic questions

What We're Looking For

Required

• 1–3 years of finance experience in infrastructure, project finance, energy, or a related asset-heavy sector (investment banking, project developer, infrastructure fund, lender, or similar)

• Bachelor's degree with coursework in both finance and accounting

• Advanced Excel proficiency: comfortable building and auditing three-statement and project models from scratch

• Working understanding of debt documentation concepts (covenants, waterfalls, reserve accounts) or demonstrated ability to get up to speed quickly

• Strong attention to detail and ability to manage recurring deadlines independently

• Located in Houston, TX or willing to relocate

Nice to Have

• Exposure to infrastructure tax credit monetization

• Experience with multi-entity structures and consolidation

• Familiarity with carbon markets, waste industry economics, or environmental commodities

• Experience supporting lender or investor diligence processes
