Deviation

In pursuit of the exceptions. Early-stage VC backing technical founders harnessing the accelerating forces of data and computing.

Introducing Deviation Capital.

Era-defining companies are the exception. They break almost every rule of conventional wisdom as they rise, but start the same way. A founder encounters something broken, invents a way forward others couldn't see, and bets everything on bringing it to life.

We launch today as the spinout of Two Sigma Ventures to find, fund, and support these founders, backing technical teams harnessing data and computing to build enduring exceptions.

New York venture firms are broadening their geographic reach. Examples: Primary, Work-Bench, and Deviation (formerly Two Sigma) Part of the reason: AI mania in SF is hard to ignore. NY seed investing declined as a share of total in the U.S. last year. https://t.co/C5m9YPyByV

This kind of hustle and complex regulatory wrangling and relentless customer focus is one of those increasingly rare moats investors love! 😍 @remote

For as long as I can remember, I've wanted this job. Apple's "Think Different" posters covered every wall of my teenage bedroom. I got my first taste of venture at Greylock, I learned how to build at Airbnb as their first product manager, scaling with them as they 100x'd over every metric, and I partnered with truly exceptional founders at NEA.

At Deviation Capital, I get to build and invest. @csbeirne, Dusan, Sidney and I started @Deviationcap to find and support the founders operating at the frontier and in the fringes, harnessing data, computing, and AI to build the defining companies of our time.

We're hiring in SF –– reach out.
