XCLAIM is the online global marketplace for trading bankruptcy claims. Our platform connects creditors—who are owed money from bankrupt companies—with financial institutions and other investors who want to buy bankruptcy claims. We enable creditors to get paid much faster than waiting for the court to settle a claim, and enable financial institution buyers to more efficiently access, bid on, and purchase these claims. This process was previously done manually and we are disrupting the bankruptcy industry, a $2 Trillion FinTech market. While bankruptcy may sound a little dry, in actuality, it’s a space begging for digital transformation.


XCLAIM was founded in 2018, is based in Los Angeles, CA, and backed by top investors including First Round Capital and General Catalyst.

What you’ll do

  • Drive adoption throughout the bankruptcy claims trading ecosystem by leading direct engagement with key stakeholders.
  • Identify and prioritize prospective business opportunities and develop strategies to maximize the benefit.
  • Serve as the primary relationship manager with existing and prospective buy-side clients.
  • Liaise with creditors and distressed debt investors to identify attractive investment / trading opportunities.
  • Work collaboratively with the product, engineering, marketing and marketplace support teams to respond to and meet clients’ needs and objectives
  • Lead XCLAIM’s market research efforts (claims trading market data, bankruptcy case analysis, buyer strategy, etc.), in coordination with the marketing and product teams
  • Provide legal counsel and support product development related to legal innovation.
  • Support fundraising processes.

You'll do well in this role if this describes you:

  • Distressed experience: At least eight (8) years of distressed markets exposure, and specifically in bankruptcy a plus.
  • Industry or business model experience: Experience in FinTech, LegalTech, B2B services, 2-sided marketplace platforms, and/or self-serve businesses, experience strongly preferred.
  • Experience setting strategy AND executing: This is an early-stage startup and you will be doing both.
  • Strong writing abilities: You understand how to effectively communicate in writing and in person. 
  • Prioritization & team communication: A strong voice on the team and in daily decisions for making the right prioritization trade-offs to support our marketplace participants.
  • Values alignment: Approach your work with sound product judgment, positive attitude, and clear goals. 

XCLAIM is an equal opportunity employer. We recruit, employ, train, compensate, and promote without regard to race, religion, creed, color, national origin, age, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, disability, veteran status, genetic information, or any other basis protected by applicable federal, state or local law.
