Role: Fifty Years Product Engineer Location: San Francisco, CA (in-person) Type: Full-Time
The climate is heading off a cliff. Thousands die every day of malnutrition. Pandemics put the world at risk. Technology entrepreneurship can solve these problems and many more!
Fifty Years is a different kind of venture capital firm. At Fifty Years we believe technology entrepreneurship can and should solve the world’s biggest problems. We believe massive wealth creation and positive impact can go hand in hand. We support early-stage founders creating massively profitable businesses that can also solve the world’s biggest problems. We pride ourselves on always going the extra mile for our portfolio founders and have built the Fifty Years team around helping our founders create and scale the most important companies of the coming decades.
We support startups working at the forefront of synthetic biology, energy, food, health care, space, construction, genomics, and many other industries. Fifty Years partners with founders in these fields to develop bold new solutions that will move humanity to the next level. And it’s working!
We've seeded companies like Solugen (engineering enzymes to produce industrial chemicals sustainably, now worth $2B), Astranis (small satellites to cover the Earth in Internet, now worth $1.4B), and Opentrons (automated lab platforms to transform healthcare and life sciences, now worth $1.8B). Nearly 20% of the teams Fifty Years backed in our Fund I are now unicorns. All backed from pre-seed or seed. 😎
You’ll be joining our tight-knit team in San Francisco, working closely with everyone on the team and touching every aspect of a venture capital firm in action.
We’re looking for an ambitious builder with experience with web applications, to create tools and services to support portfolio founders, find new founders, and support our team.
You’ll work with world-class product builders and investors in a fast-paced environment, with a front-row seat to the latest deep tech innovation. The products you develop will help founders expand their network, fundraise, recruit, and grow.
