Job description

Role : Chief of Staff – DeVC (pre-seed / seed strategy of Z47)

Location : Bangalore (with travel as required)

About DeVC

DeVC is building a new kind of venture platform - one that brings together India’s top angels, operators, and early-stage investors to source, evaluate, and win the most compelling startup opportunities, together. We believe in the power of the collective - that the best investment decisions come from the shared intelligence, experience, and networks of those who’ve built before.

Role Overview

This is a high-leverage role at the intersection of venture capital, community, and execution. As Chief of Staff, you’ll work directly with Z47 and DeVC Partners to help run DeVC’s operations, drive strategic initiatives, and - most importantly - engage and grow our community of angel and co-investors.

Think of it as a front-row seat to the next generation of Indian startups. You’ll help shape how early-stage investing is done in India, partner with remarkable founders, and learn how funds are built and scaled.

This role is ideal for someone who’s entrepreneurial, deeply curious, and energized by people and systems - someone who wants to learn the inner workings of venture capital and eventually chart their own path as an investor, operator, or founder.

Key Responsibilities

1. Build and Nurture the DeVC Community

  • Be the bridge between DeVC and its network of angels and co-investors.
  • Design and lead initiatives that keep the community informed, engaged, and excited - from curated deal discussions to exclusive investor sessions.
  • Create systems for knowledge sharing, relationship mapping, and collaboration across our investor base.
  • Amplify DeVC’s presence across the ecosystem through thoughtful communication, partnerships, and events.

2. Support Fund operations

  • Partner with founders through the investment lifecycle - diligence, deal closure, and post-investment engagement.
  • Streamline internal fund operations and ensure alignment across investment priorities, partners, and portfolio needs.
  • Help manage fund-level communication, reporting, and stakeholder updates.

    • 3. Lead Strategic and Special Projects

  • Work on high-impact projects - fundraising, investor summits, ecosystem partnerships, or internal process redesign.
  • Identify gaps and drive independent initiatives to strengthen the fund’s effectiveness and brand.
  • Be a multiplier - someone who anticipates challenges, connects dots, and creates leverage for the team.

    • What You’ll Bring / what we are looking for

  • Experience : 2–4 years in consulting, investing, startups, or operating roles where you’ve built and executed under ambiguity.
  • Mindset : Builder-operator DNA - proactive, resourceful, and comfortable wearing multiple hats.
  • Skills : Outstanding communication, relationship management, and structured problem-solving.
  • Curiosity : A genuine interest in startups, venture investing, and the people who make ecosystems thrive.
  • Values : Integrity, velocity, and a founder-first ethos.

    • What This Role Offers

  • Frontline Exposure : Get a ringside view into how early-stage investments are sourced, evaluated, and won.
  • Community Access : Engage with India’s most respected angels, operators, and early-stage VCs.
  • Mentorship : Work directly with Z47’s partners and experienced investors across sectors.
  • Optionality : Use this as a launchpad - whether you want to become an investor, operator, or founder.
  • Impact : Help shape how India’s most collaborative venture platform scales its community and influence.

    • Why This Matters

    At DeVC, we’re proving that the future of venture in India won’t be driven by a few institutions - it’ll be driven by the collective wisdom of many sharp, motivated builders and investors.

    As Chief of Staff, you’ll be at the heart of that movement.
