This role is based in New York City.
Ideal Candidate:
- 1-4 years of relevant work experience from a VC/PE firm, investment bank, consulting firm, startup or something so great we can’t easily envision.

- A relevant network to help find aspiring entrepreneurs and unearth exciting new startups.
- Strong written and analytical skills for deal analysis and internal reporting.

How to Apply:
Our team is constantly sharing and debating new ideas, and we want to make sure that’s an environment you will thrive in. For that reason, our process begins with everyone submitting an investment idea, thesis, or memo that proposes something we should invest in.
The idea should be focused on either a specific early-stage company in the digital finance space that you believe we should invest in or a thesis you believe we should build into one of our existing strategies.
