About the role
Index Industries is a venture-backed startup, with a mission to build the financial infrastructure for a new era of real estate investing, one that opens the largest asset classes to investors across the globe. The company is currently in stealth and launching its first technology in 2026.
About the Role We're at the stage where the product vision is clear and we need someone to open doors, close partnerships, and help fuel the next phase of growth. This role sits at the intersection of BD and capital markets — you'll build strategic relationships while actively supporting our fundraising strategy.
Responsibilities
- Own the end-to-end partnership pipeline: sourcing, negotiating, and closing strategic deals with fintechs, banks, protocols, and enterprise clients
- Lead capital raising efforts alongside the CEO — managing VC/LP relationships, preparing materials, and running diligence processes
- Represent the company at industry events, conferences, and investor forums
- Develop go-to-market strategies for new verticals and distribution channels
- Build and manage a network of advisors, angels, and institutional investors in fintech and blockchain
- Work cross-functionally with product and legal to structure and execute partnership agreements
Requirements
- 7+ years in BD, corporate development, investment banking, or venture capital
- Deep network in fintech, blockchain, or digital asset ecosystems — you have relationships, not just contacts
- Experience supporting or leading capital raises (Series A and beyond)
- Strong deal structuring skills and comfort reading term sheets, LOIs, and partnership agreements
- Exceptional communication and executive presence — you're credible in a boardroom and at a crypto conference
- Bonus: prior experience at a startup in a BD or capital markets role; relationships with tier-1 crypto/fintech VCs
Compensation: $160K–$200K base + carry/equity + performance bonus
