We are technical investors that like to dive deep into segments of the market where we believe technology can be most transformative, and in this role you will build conviction in your search for future industry leading companies by talking to founders and domain experts throughout the ecosystem. You will also effectively share your findings by modeling out scenarios, testing assumptions, synthesizing their learnings, and iterating with the team’s feedback. Our VPs gain exposure to our networks and deal processes, and have the opportunity to find, lead, and support multiple promising investments each year.
