Job description

Venture Capitalist, Entrepreneur in Residence, Startup Founder, CEO

Build a company. Lead growth. Raise capital. Earn meaningful ownership.

Altura Ventures is seeking a Venture Capitalist and/or an Entrepreneur in Residence (EIR) to work directly with founder Lee Lorenzen to help fund and scale one of the ideas that the EIR already has or one of the ones that Altura Ventures has been incubating. This includes the Fallen Angels Fund for stalled startups in VC portfolios -- see www.AlturaVC.com.

This role is designed for venture capitalists or entrepreneurial operators who want more than a traditional executive position. You will begin as a fractional Founder/CEO of your own startup or an existing startup, helping shape product, growth, fundraising, and execution—with the opportunity based on the quality of the concept and the initial fundraising success (which Altura Ventures will manage) to transition into a full-time Founder/CEO role.

Through Altura Ventures' GEM System, you will receive hands-on support for fundraising, go-to-market strategy, pricing, and growth execution.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Optimize your existing startup's positioning and/or brainstorm a new idea with Lee Lorenzen (see www.leelorenzen.com)
• Select the opportunity in an existing startup that best fits your experience and interests
• Work alongside Altura Ventures using the GEM System (www.altura.net/gem) to raise $250K in 3 months
• Operate as a fractional Founder / CEO during the initial fundraising and growth (or restart) phase
• Transition to a full-time Founder / CEO role as milestones are achieved

The Big Question

Do you have what it takes to be the Founder, CEO of one of Altura Ventures' existing startups?

WHO YOU ARE

• Founder mentality with high ownership and accountability
• Comfortable operating in ambiguity and making fast decisions
• Strong growth, product, GTM, or operational experience
• Excited by startups and motivated by building long-term value
• Demonstrated GRIT, resilience, and execution under uncertainty

COMPENSATION

• Fundraising success bonuses of up to $25,000 as the first $250,000 is raised with Altura's help
• Initial fractional Founder/CEO equity grant of 25% -- it is your company
• Monthly salary when you transition to a full-time Founder/CEO -- expected to be in 6 to 12 months

If you have ever been or wanted to be a Venture Capitalist, Founder, and/or CEO and help build a company-not just manage one-this role was designed for you.
