- Partner with Antler India Fund I portfolio companies on GTM, business strategy, fundraising, hiring, and partnerships.
- Develop investment theses and explore white spaces shaping the future of technology in India.
What We’re Looking For:
- Experience: 4–5 years of total work experience, including ideally 2+ years in early-stage venture capital. Exceptional candidates with relevant operating experience in the specified sectors will also be considered.
- Bonus: Experience in a Fintech, Mobility, or B2B Commerce startup in a high-ownership or leadership role.
- Mindset: A winning attitude, exceptionally high levels of curiosity, a genuine hunger and passion to serve founders, an exceptional work ethic, humility, and high individual ownership.
