Job Description

Senior VC Associate

Decentralized Masters

• The VC Senior Associate sits at the center of the investment engine. • You will run deal processes end-to-end - from initial screen through diligence, memo, IC presentation, and SPV close - alongside the Director of Investments. • You will start sourcing independently within your first six months and set the bar for the analyst pool that comes in behind you. • You will own deals. • You will own diligence. • You will own the relationships that come from running a process well. • You report directly to the Director of Investments at Inflection Club. • You will have regular exposure to the Investment Committee. • Responsibilities: • Deal Screening & Pipeline Management • Run the top of the funnel: review inbound deals, conduct first-screen calls, and triage opportunities against our thesis in AI, robotics, longevity, infrastructure, and digital assets. • Maintain the deal tracker - stage, status, IC decisions, follow-ups - as the single source of truth for the investment team. • Support the Director of Investments in hitting the pipeline target: minimum 3 qualified deals presented to IC per quarter, scaling to 5 in Q3-Q4. • Build proprietary deal flow over time: VC syndicates, angel networks, founder relationships, family-office co-investors, and direct-to-founder outreach. • Due Diligence & Investment Memos • Lead diligence on specific deals end-to-end using institutional VC frameworks: TAM/SAM, team quality, traction metrics, tokenomics (where applicable), cap table, round terms, and competitive landscape. • Build the financial models. • Pressure-test the founder’s assumptions. • Reference-check operators, investors, and customers. • Produce institutional-quality investment memos for every deal presented to IC -d the kind a top-tier fund would put in front of its partners. • Investment Committee Process • Co-present deals to the IC alongside the Director of Investments. • Defend the thesis. • Take the hard questions. • Document the decision. • Track post-IC actions: open diligence items, term-sheet redlines, member-facing materials. • Maintain the deal tracker with full stage, status, and IC decision history. • SPV Execution & Legal Coordination • Coordinate with outside counsel on SPV formation, subscription documents, Reg D 506(c) compliance, and accredited investor verification. • Support the deal product: term sheets, carry waterfalls, distribution mechanics. • Project-manage the close: tracking subscriptions, liaising with members through the Director of Community, and ensuring the deal closes cleanly. • Roundtable & Member-Facing Content • Support the Director of Investments in Roundtable preparation: discussion materials, deal showcases, and follow-up briefings. • Produce the deal summaries, investment theses, and portfolio updates that members interact with - written with the rigor of an investor and the clarity of an operator. • Sourcing (Ramping Through Year 1) • Begin sourcing independently within the first six months. • Build a personal pipeline of founders, syndicate leads, and co-investors. • Represent Inflection Club selectively at conferences, demo days, and investor events as you grow into the role. • Mentoring (As the Team Grows) • Mentor and review the work of analyst-level hires once the team scales. • Set the bar for memo quality, model rigor, and process discipline.

Job Requirements

  • Y3 to 5 years of full-time experience in venture capital, growth equity, private equity, investment banking (TMT, healthcare, or fintech), or a strategic-finance role at a high-growth startup.
  • You have led diligence on at least one deal that closed - not just supported it. You can walk a partner through the model you built.
  • You write well. Your investment memos are the kind people forward, not skim.
  • You can build a financial model from a blank tab - cohort analyses, LTV/CAC, scenario builds, cap-table waterfalls, dilution math - without a template.
  • You read primary sources. You know the difference between a sourced fact and a TechCrunch headline.
  • You operate in a high-trust, low-bureaucracy environment. You don’t need to be told to follow up.
  • You can hold your own in a room of accredited investors and operators without performing or shrinking.
  • You are comfortable working at an uncomfortable pace without sacrificing quality.
  • Bonus Points
  • Direct experience underwriting AI infrastructure, robotics, longevity/biotech, or digital-asset deals.
  • Fluency in tokenomics, on-chain metrics, and crypto cap-table structures.
  • CFA, MBA, or equivalent credential. Not required, but noticed.
  • Network across Tier-1 VC funds, angel syndicates, or family offices.
  • Prior exposure to SPV mechanics, Reg D 506(c) compliance, or QSBS / Section 1202.
  • Operating background - you’ve built or scaled something yourself before going into investing.

Benefits

  • Build Your Legacy: This is a chance to build a category-defining company from the ground up, with your vision at the center.
  • Unfair Advantage: You are not starting from zero. You have a built-in distribution channel of thousands of engaged, high-trust members from Day 1.
  • Significant Upside: You will receive a competitive base salary, a performance bonus tied to growth, and an equity/carry package that gives you a direct stake in the club's success.
