VCMintHyderabad, Telangana, India17 days ago
Job descriptionRun fast screens (team / market / traction / unit economics) and deep dives (market sizing, competition, moat, risks). Build and audit financial models; scenario / cap table simulations; exit pathways. Draft crisp Investment Memos with clear theses, risks, mitigants, and decision checkpoints. Prepare materials for an efficient Investment Committee cadence. Define diligence scope; select / manage external partners for Legal Due Diligence (LDD) and Financial Due Diligence (FDD) ; commission tech / commercial work as needed. Coordinate data‑room requests, red‑flag logs, and management Q&A. Synthesize findings into go / no‑go recommendations with practical remedies and terms. Support term sheet design, valuation rationale, rights, and protections aligned to founder‑friendly principles. Coordinate with counsel on definitive docs; ensure clean close checklists and post‑close obligations. Maintain accurate closing files; hand off smoothly to finance / ops for compliance. Onboard each company into VCMint’s advisor network ; drive targeted, time‑boxed help (hiring, GTM, ops, partnerships, governance). Track portfolio health (cadenced updates, KPI dashboards, cash runway). Prepare follow‑on cases; manage co‑investor communications. Where relevant, take board / observer seats with a coach‑not‑cop ethos. Partner with finance on allocations, wires, compliance, and record‑keeping.

Empathy first : default to curiosity and respect in every founder interaction. Speed with clarity : first response within 48–72 hours; crisp feedback even when passing. No black box : explain how we decide, what we need next, and timelines. Value on every touch : intro, resource, or concrete suggestion—even when it’s a “no.” Sourcing : Curate 400–600 quality opportunities / year; maintain a living map of priority themes. Conversion : Advance 15–25% to deep dive; recommend 12-15 investments / year (mix of early and selective growth). Diligence Quality : Every close accompanied by a clear red‑flag register and mitigants; zero avoidable surprises post‑close. Portfolio NPS : Founder NPS ≥ 60; measurable advisor engagements per company per quarter. Cadence : IC memos that enable decisions within 2–3 weeks from first call (deal‑dependent). Background : Ex‑founder / operator or investor with meaningful deal evaluation experience; comfort spanning seed to growth. Networked : Credible access across founders, angels, bankers, and operators—especially within India (Hyderabad a plus). Analytical : Strong grasp of unit economics, cohort / retention, marketplaces, SaaS metrics, working‑capital cycles, and path to profitability. Diligence‑ready : Hands‑on with LDD / FDD scopes; ability to frame key questions and pressure‑test assumptions. Execution : Structured writer (memos), fast modeler (Excel / Sheets), and organized operator (pipeline discipline). Style : Hustle, bias to action, low‑ego; founder‑friendly communicator with high empathy. Nice‑to‑have : Board / observer experience; prior term‑sheet negotiations; sector depth in fintech / SaaS / AI / consumer. Competitive base + performance bonus tied to sourcing quality, diligence excellence, and portfolio outcomes. Potential carry % across the portfolio Open to entrepreneurial structures (e.g., transition from an operating role, flexible arrangement while building your next thing). Tools / enablement budget for research, CRM, expert calls, and travel. Internal : Founders (Aditya & Neelima), Finance / Compliance, Portfolio Success / Advisor Ops. External : Founders, co‑investors, bankers, accelerators, legal / accounting diligence partners, expert networks.
