8i Ventures is an early stage venture firm backing India's best founders. Since 2019, we have backed companies like Blue Tokai Coffee, M2P Technologies, Slice, Easebuzz, Boba Bhai & Transbnk - early believers in some category defining startups.
We're not looking for someone who's watched growth happen from a spreadsheet. We're looking for someone who's caused it.
What you'll do
Find founders early in their journey - meet, engage and attract the best founders to our firm
Do the grind - meet the customers, the team, the suppliers - diligence happens on the road, not on excel
Help our companies grow- find talent to recruit, customers to sign up, problem solve for the companies we partner with
You'll thrive here if
You've built something - as a founder or an early employee
You've worked product, tech or growth at an early or fast growth startup - owned an outcome and moved the needle on it
You already know which founders we should meet - they're in your contacts
What's in it for you
You work directly with the partners - no layers or filters. Your work lands on the decision - not on someone else's desk first
Decisions get made with you in the room - you influence them through the quality of your work and insights - not opinions or tenure
If your work is positive - you move up. The org doesn't have the hierarchy to slow you down even if it wanted to
You'll work on areas that are recent to us, recent to the world - helping us build our thesis from scratch
Freedom to take initiative and drive projects you believe in
Background
2+ years in product, growth, or a tech-adjacent role at a startup - big, small, or one that folded. Doesn't matter which. What matters is you moved the needle somewhere and can point to exactly how.
