To our new Associate or Principal. Hello.

We are NFX, the fastest growing pre-seed and seed venture firm in the US. 

We’re currently investing our 3rd Fund of $450 Million, after our $325M 2nd Fund and we’re looking to expand our investing team in the SF Bay Area.

We're putting this role out there for karma. If you're the best person in the world for this, you'll find your way to us.

Who are you?

You're local to the San Francisco Bay Area having lived, worked, and networked here for at least a few recent years. You know who to call, where to go, and what's hot or not. 

You're an amazing human being. Strong at heart, generous in spirit. Charismatic, perceptive, humble, humorous, confident, & driven…by that we mean not just “I can do it” confident, but “it’s ok if I can’t do it” confident. You’re a natural psychologist. You understand people and see patterns. You see things others do not about people and the mechanics that make businesses work.

You’ve been a successful Operator or Founder in the SF Bay Area for a few years. You’ve been involved in venture capital and know the drill. You have a strong network particularly in the SF Bay Area. You’re someone that other Founders admire and respect, and can learn from. NFX's brand means people who have been operators themselves. 

You hustle. You need to find the hot teams and companies before others do. It's a sales job. VC is now a highly competitive sport that requires speed, decisiveness, empathy, dexterity, patience, and endurance.  

You like being on a team. You care more about *doing* right than *being* right. 

NFX will probably *not* be a good fit for you if: You think investing is glamorous; you think investing will be a more balanced lifestyle than running a company; you want to work alone; you really like the Rosewood Hotel on Sand Hill; or you’re trying to decide whether to live in the SF Bay Area or somewhere else.

What is NFX like?

We run our venture firm like a startup. 

NFX is a venture firm exclusively focused on pre-seed & seed stage startups.

Creating something of true significance starts with seeing things others do not.

This ability shows up in rare founders. Those who see the world differently and run through walls to make their vision happen.

As founders, we reinvented industries this way. We built 10 companies with more than $10 Billion in exits and know what it takes not just to create massive value, but also enduring change.

As seed investors, our approach is no different – we invest in the best, the anti-normal, the visionaries. We invest in transforming fearless founders into elite leaders.

We fund you first and we fund you fast. Then we help you get it right fast. Then we help you raise your next round fast. And we have your back from there.
