We’re an emerging manager and will opportunistically consider adding team members who can help build our unique firm. We are primarily interested in people with a strong analytic and/or technical background, who can help us execute our vision of building a best-in-class VC in our use of technology and analytics.
Why join?
- Join an emerging manager as effectively a co-founder
- Work with a very experienced VC and mentor
- Learn about venture capital, particularly fintech
- Learn the behind-the-scenes of building a venture fund
- Learn more about how to launch a company
- Transparency
- If you want to start a company later, we’ll likely be your earliest and biggest backer
- High risk, high reward
Expertise/skill sets sought
We love working with individuals from diverse, underestimated backgrounds. A few markers we look for:
- You built something nobody told you to build
- Technical, or at least comfortable talking with technical people
- Strong writing/presentation skills valued
- High energy
- Broadly literate about VC/startups. Our industry is very transparent. It’s easy to self-educate, and a bad sign if you haven’t. See Reading list for Associates and Analysts in private equity and venture capital.
- History of associating with high-caliber people
Logistics
Hours and location are flexible. We are physically based in NYC but work remotely much of the time.
To apply:
Please mail careers(@)teten.com:
- a detailed resume (see How to Write a Resume that Sells)
- location and time zone
- writing sample(s)
- availability (hours/week and dates)
- most important: a summary of how you think you can add value to a new VC firm. We recommend being as precise as possible: what projects can you lead and deliver on? What deliverables can you commit to?
