Weekday Corporate Development M&A Jobs (NOW HIRING)

The Corporate Development Accounting team supports finance and accounting functions for CoreWeave's inorganic growth opportunities. We are primarily responsible for the accounting and reporting of M&A transactions and strategic investments. The team partners closely with Corporate Development, Legal, Strategic Financing, Operations Accounting, and the broader CAO organization.
