About the role

Clade is a platform for private investments. Our ambition is to become the premier digital syndication (distribution) platform for direct institutional grade private loans and other alternative investments such as private equity and venture capital investments.

These investments are currently only accessible to some wealthy individuals and institutional investors. At Clade we use technology and our network to make alternative investments accessible to a larger audience.

We’re a small, nimble and fun team based in New York City, about to grow, and looking for more amazing individuals to join us. Remote or in our office.
