The posting

Working directly with top founders & investors

We work alongside some of the most ambitious early-stage startups in New York - often at the exact moment when talent strategy and execution determine whether or not they will succeed.

Our backgrounds span building the founding/early teams at Kalshi, Traba, Actively, OpenDoor, Sola, Numeric, Arena AI, Avoca, Clay, Meta, and more. We're also a trusted talent partner to Conviction, support founders across their portfolio company from day zero.

This is not a traditional recruiting role. It will span talent scouting, company building, operations, the essential pieces that give early stage companies lift off - working with founders as we assemble the first teams that matter.

Why This Role Is a Big Deal Early founders spend ~40–50% of their time on hiring — you’ll learn how the best do it. You’ll see how generational companies are built from the ground up, starting with talent You’ll work alongside founders and partners with investments from Sequoia, Kleiner Perkins, Khosla Ventures, Conviction, BCV, and Amplify You’ll build judgment, taste, and a personal network that compounds for years If you’re curious about founders, startups, or the venture ecosystem — this is one of the fastest ways to get close to the action.

What You’ll Actually Do 🔍 Talent Scouting Identify exceptional engineers and builders before they’re actively looking Source creatively across GitHub, niche technical communities, Twitter/X, private networks, and emerging platforms Develop a sharp instinct for signal vs. noise in early-career and senior technical talent 🧠 Pipeline Building Build and maintain high-quality talent maps for critical early-stage roles Track relationships over time — this is long-game relationship building, not transactional outreach ✍️ High-Signal Outreach Write thoughtful, human outreach that resonates with top builders Tell compelling stories about companies, founders, and problems worth working on 🤝 Matchmaking & Advisory Act as a trusted connector between high-caliber talent and top founders Help candidates think through tradeoffs (stage, risk, learning curve, upside) Make warm, thoughtful introductions — quality over quantity Who This Is For You’re early in your career but want exposure to high-growth startups and venture-backed founders You’re curious, resourceful, and comfortable operating without a script You don’t rely on LinkedIn alone — you enjoy finding people others miss You care deeply about your craft and have strong taste You’re NYC-based and want to be plugged into the local startup ecosystem, in person

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
