VC Senior Associate

About the role

The VC Senior Associate at Inflection Club will play a central role in the investment engine. Reporting directly to the Director of Investments, this individual will run deal processes end-to-end, from initial screening through diligence, investment memos, and SPV execution. The ideal candidate has 3 to 5 years of experience in venture capital, growth equity, private equity, investment banking, or strategic finance at a high-growth startup.

Responsibilities

• Deal Screening & Pipeline Management
• Maintain the deal tracker - stage, status, IC decisions, follow-ups
• Present qualified deals to the Investment Committee
• Build proprietary deal flow over time
• Support the Director of Investments in hitting the pipeline target
• Co-present deals to the IC alongside the Director of Investments
• Document the decision and track post-IC actions
• 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
• Prepare for and support the Director of Investments in Roundtable preparation
• Produce deal summaries, investment theses, and portfolio updates
• Sourcing (Ramping Through Year 1)
• Build a personal pipeline of founders, syndicate leads, and co-investors
• Represent Inflection Club selectively at conferences, demo days, and investor events

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
• Led diligence on at least one deal that closed - not just supported it
• Can walk a partner through the model you built
• Writes well. Investment memos are the kind people forward, not skim
• Can build a financial model from a blank tab - cohort analyses, LTV/CAC, scenario builds, cap-table waterfalls, dilution math - without a template
• Reads primary sources. Knows the difference between a sourced fact and a TechCrunch headline
• Operates in a high-trust, low-bureaucracy environment. Doesn't need to be told to follow up
• 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 - built or scaled something yourself before going into investing
