We're hiring again at New Media. Our team does storytelling for our firm and our companies (and in part, our industry) including working closely with SpaceX, OpenAI, and many others. We run many of the firm's networks and we also have a couple incubations in the works. We're focused on helping compound the competitive advantages of the firm. This quarter we’ve hired some great people: @gaby_goldberg @jessicarwolf @karinabao @thedanigrant @mikemcg0, @brookemrtn, @LukeDeNatale @rorhug, and a couple others to be announced. We’ve also spun out some great people who are working closely with us but from incubations or portfolio companies — the amazing @liangsays @netcapgirl @gbrl_dick @humford @davideoks @schisofrenia @ChrisJBakke @knowerofmarkets paving the way for more leadership opportunities on the team. For people who want to learn about operating and investing, for people who want to feel like they get the depth and camaraderie of a startup with the breadth and intellectual curiosity of a VC firm, it’s the perfect place. People here love the work, the people, and the growth–and we’re committed to this being a springboard for their career, as shown from the folks above. If you’re interested and a good fit, we’d love to meet - apply below. We’re also hosting a dinner Thursday. The best way to apply is via proof of work or a strong reference.
