Job description

Director, Technology, Media & Internet Research

Head of TMT Research - Build a best-in-class product for elite investors

Own the Technology, Media & Internet research product for top hedge funds

You’ll take the lead on building a best-in-class Technology, Media, and Internet (TMT) primary research product used by leading hedge funds and institutional investors.

This is your platform to design the strategy, own the P&L impact for TMT, and turn differentiated conversations with private company executives into the reports smart money actually reads.

You’ll lead associates, shape the roadmap, and drive both research depth and business growth.

If you’re an entrepreneurial TMT investor-type with real Wall Street relationships and a passion for markets, we want to talk to you.

What You'll Work On

You’ll build and scale the TMT sector franchise for a boutique, high-touch primary research platform:

• Technology industry subsectors
• Media industry subsectors
• Internet and digital platforms
• Primary research and expert conversations
• Sector strategy and product vision
• Proprietary expert network development
• Client-facing investment insights
• Internal data and tech initiatives

Your mandate: turn raw market conversations into differentiated, actionable TMT insights for elite investors.

What You'll Be Doing

• Build out and lead the Technology, Media, and Internet sector business
• Define and execute the strategy for a best-in-class TMT primary research product
• Lead and mentor a team of associates supporting the TMT franchise
• Research and map out industries, subsectors, and key TMT themes
• Speak daily with private company executives to surface trends and insights
• Synthesize conversations and data into written reports for institutional investors
• Deliver differentiated, actionable insights tailored to hedge fund and professional investment clients
• Drive recruiting initiatives to grow the firm’s proprietary expert network
• Train associates on research, writing, and investor-focused analysis
• Contribute to business development efforts across the TMT sector
• Work on data and technology initiatives tied to the research and expert network platform
• Manage and deepen relationships with existing institutional clients

What We're Looking For

• Several years of experience in markets, investing, or related Wall Street-facing roles
• Deep relationships across Wall Street and institutional investors
• Strong subject matter interest in technology, media, and internet sectors
• Comfort and competence as a writer of professional, investor-grade research
• Genuine passion for markets, investing, and primary research
• Intellectual curiosity and a drive to build an exceptional product and business
• Entrepreneurial mindset with comfort owning a sector and its P&L impact
• Creative problem solver who enjoys mapping new spaces and finding angles others miss

The Experience That Will Really Get Our Attention

You’ve already built trust with hedge funds or institutional investors, and know what “differentiated insight” actually looks like to them. You can sit down with a private company CEO, drive a sharp, thoughtful conversation, and then turn that into crisp written work that investors can trade or position around.

The ideal fit is someone who thrives in a small, cohesive team, wants real ownership of a sector franchise, and loves living deep in TMT — from emerging technologies and platforms to shifting media and internet business models.

High-signal background: TMT research ★ hedge fund or institutional investor coverage ★ Wall Street relationship network ★ primary research ★ report writing ★ sector strategy ★ P&L awareness ★ expert network exposure

Why This Opportunity?

Step into a leadership role at a fast-paced, growing boutique where your judgment and relationships directly shape the TMT product.

Deepen your subject matter expertise across technology, media, and internet while working with world-class senior executives and investors.

Enjoy a competitive base salary with a performance-based bonus tied directly to TMT sector P&L.

Build a strong career foundation from Golden, Colorado — with the Rockies in your backyard, fully-paid health care benefits, a 401(k) with employer match, and even a free Ikon or Epic Pass.
