Intern – Pipeline Engineering & Deal Execution Infrastructure (Private Markets / M&A)
March 27, 2026
by an investor from IPADE in Milan, Metropolitan City of Milan, Italy
Mandate Note
This is a systems and execution role, not a general internship.
We are not looking for:
• no-code automation profiles
• CRM operators
• candidates exploring finance
We are looking for candidates who can design and implement logic-driven systems that support how capital raising and M&A mandates are filtered, structured, and executed.
Strong programming capability (Python preferred, SQL or equivalent accepted) and the ability to think in structured systems are essential.
⸻
Firm Context
Ravencourt Capital operates as a mandate-driven execution platform across capital formation and strategic transactions.
We work at the intersection of:
• sell-side mandate structuring
• investor / buyer alignment
• execution infrastructure
Our internal system, FulfillmentOS, governs how opportunities are:
• qualified
• filtered
• structured
• and routed toward execution
This role contributes directly to upgrading that infrastructure.
⸻
The Role
You will work on improving the internal execution layer of our FulfilmentOS.
This includes:
• structuring sell-side opportunities
• updating qualification logic
• building matching frameworks
• maintaining clean and scalable data systems
The focus is not on tools, but on logic, structure, and durability of the system.
⸻
Core Responsibilities
• Design structured data models supporting mandate evaluation and execution
• Implement qualification and scoring logic for sell-side opportunities
• Build matching frameworks between investors, acquirers, and mandates
• Translate execution logic into working systems (Airtable + code)
• Support the build-out of FulfillmentOS
• Ensure systems remain stable, interpretable, and scalable
⸻
Requirements
• Strong programming capability (Python preferred; SQL or equivalent accepted)
• Ability to design logic-driven systems, not just workflows
• Experience working with structured data (relational thinking required)
• Ability to work independently with minimal guidance
• Clear thinking and attention to detail
⸻
Candidate Fit (Important)
This role is best suited for candidates who have already:
• built a system, pipeline, or structured project
• worked with data beyond surface-level tools
Candidates whose experience is limited to no-code tools without underlying programming logic will not be considered.
⸻
Working Style
• Minimum 10–15 hours per week
• Independent execution expected
• Output and timelines matter more than activity
⸻
Working Hours
Candidates should be able to consistently overlap with Central European Time (CET) for coordination.
⸻
Selection Process
Step 1: Technical Task
A short task will be shared covering:
• data structuring
• scoring logic
• pipeline thinking
We do not schedule introductory calls. Applications are reviewed only after completion of the initial technical task.
⸻
Step 2: Short Evaluation Sprint (3–5 days)
• Output-based
• Designed to assess execution capability
⸻
Compensation
• No fixed compensation at this stage
• Potential to move into performance-based collaboration upon demonstrated capability
⸻
Important Clarification
This is not:
• a capital raising role
• a business development role
• a lead generation role
This is a systems + execution infrastructure role
⸻
Application Process (Mandatory)
To be considered, you must send your application via email.
Please include:
• CV
• GitHub / project links (if available)
• A short note outlining your technical experience
📩 Send to: redacted
Applications submitted only via platform without email will not be reviewed.
⸻
This role is suited to individuals who are comfortable working at the intersection of:
• structured thinking
• execution logic
• and real-world application
