We’re hiring a new investor at @btv_vc!

We are small and collaborative team, so you’ll get exposure to nearly every aspect of being a VC.

We’ll expect you to play a critical role in sourcing new investments, conducting due diligence, and supporting portfolio companies.

We're looking for someone who is curious and ambitious, builds relationships easily, has a passion for working with founders, operates in a high sense of urgency by default, and maintains high standards of excellence in their work.

Bonus points for startup or technology company operating experience and a passion for fintech. We absolutely love our work and hope you have the same level of passion for it as we do.

We’re looking for someone early in their career (~4-6 years in) in the Bay Area or willing to move.

~~ eXciTed t0 anNouNCe ~~ @typecapital, the 𝐚𝐛𝐬𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞 for founders to take their first check. I spoke with @FortuneMagazine about building Type –still in its earliest stages– and how excited I am about the next-generation of founders and fund managers. There’s still a ton more work to do, but I haven’t felt this excited, focused, and (dare I say) convicted in a long time.

To the builders, always. You’re exactly our type.
