Summary
- A six-month, paid opportunity in VC and startups. Opportunity will begin in July (training to begin remotely in mid-June)
- A unique opportunity to grow your career. Past Venture Fellows have a rich experience and have gone on to roles in our portfolio, founding startups, or joining other VCs
- Applications are open!
We're looking for our next Venture Fellows who will join us starting July 2022 for a six month period. Our Venture Fellowship is geared towards those who are no more than a year out of an undergraduate program and looking to break into the world of venture capital and startups in a "learn by doing" environment. Our Venture Fellows are a key member of our team and get exposure to all aspects of running a venture firm: sourcing, diligence, post-investment support, and investor relations.
“Dynamo’s culture and Venture Fellow role is truly unique. Not only you get to work with world-class partners on projects that actually add value and learn from experts in the space, but you also get to meet and analyze early-stage startups across the world that are shaping the future of supply chain and mobility every day.”
Leo Girlando Current Venture Fellow, Dynamo Ventures
Our Venture Fellows have a rich experience and have gone on to roles in our portfolio, founding business, or joining other VCs.
“As a Venture Fellow, I was provided with hands-on venture capital experience and mentorship that spanned much further than my time at Dynamo. The experience helped me understand the startup landscape at a deeper level, allowing me to find my place in the community now running social media for Jason Calacanis’ This Week in Startups.”
Rachel Braun Producer, This Week in Startups
We value diversity and encourage candidates from all backgrounds and fields of study.
