Wefunder helps everyday people invest in the startups they love

Wefunder is the largest funding platform connecting founders with their communities. We spent years lobbying congress to fix the law, and in turn, created this industry. Since then, we've helped fund thousands of pre-IPO startups with $500M+, from early-stage moonshots to unicorns. We built this space from the ground up, and now we’re looking for someone help more founders launch a Community Round.

We’re a team of founder types. Your potential matters more than your background or experience; we’re the company where you can take your shot. Everyone is here to learn and grow, to work on a meaningful product, and to fix capitalism.

Skills & Experience

• You ruthlessly prioritize. You will be the primary point person for founders as they go through the crazy process of fundraising and you’ll have dozens of competing priorities. You know how to separate the wheat from the chaff.
• You have incredible attention to detail. You can catch errors in investment contracts and make sure that balls don’t get dropped when dealing with dozens of founders. You take pride in a job well done.
• You’re an excellent communicator. You can code-switch between building rapport with CEOs, alleviating concerns from skeptical CFOs, discussing valuations with investors, and fielding questions from diligent attorneys. You can clearly translate complex ideas and processes into easy to understand next steps.
• You’re extremely accountable and reliable. If you say you’ll do something, it’ll get done.
• You thrive in ambiguity. You’re comfortable learning quickly and asking a lot of questions. You prefer being thrown in the deep end and aspire to learn every small detail about the fundraising process.
• You believe #ABC (Always Be Closing). You know how to look for selling opportunities throughout the funnel.
