Union Square Ventures2024 USV Core Fund
We recently started investing out of our newest USV Core Fund. As with each of our previous funds, while it is a new vehicle, our approach will stay the same: small fund, thesis driven, high conviction, and low velocity. We’ll focus on being long term and dedicated partners to a small number of teams creating projects and businesses that are aligned with our thesis. We’ll continue to commit once and then partner with the companies throughout their lifetimes. We run a collaborative partnership...

USV is looking for an AI Lead—a technical operator who will help us reimagine how a venture firm develops theses, finds companies, and supports its portfolio in the AI era.
You’ll be the builder-in-chief: prototyping tools that help us source founders earlier, synthesize markets faster, and operate more intelligently. You’ll stand at the edge of what’s possible with language models, embeddings, and retrieval systems—and bring it back to Earth in the form of working tools that matter.
This role isn’t about writing research memos or consulting decks. It’s about building. You’ll be hands on, writing code. You’ll ship things. You’ll experiment constantly, and you’ll shape the future of USV from the inside.
You’ll be joining a small, curious, high-trust team with deep conviction in the transformative power of technology. We’ve been early partners to businesses like Etsy, Cloudflare, Coinbase, Duolingo, Abridge and Radiant that we believed would both become generational companies and important in shaping how society works. Now, we’re rethinking how we work.
If you’re excited by the idea of using AI to amplify human judgment, love chasing edge-case ideas across the web, and want to build systems that make learning and investing more intelligent, please reach out. Please note that this role is in-person, based in NYC. We’ll review applications submitted here, and would be happy to answer any questions at [email protected] - we’re excited to learn more about you.
Base salary for this NYC based role will range between $150,000 - $300,000 base, non-inclusive of bonus or additional benefits. USV is not able to sponsor employment visas at this time.

This sounds like an odd position for what you've posted about the VC industry and model in the past. This sounds like a solution that's a funnel going into USV. I'd expect you'd make a way for entrepreneurs to project what they do across the industry so as to attach to many different funnels. It would be more like how deals are syndicated anyway, just more decentralized from the start.
Really cool that you guys are hiring an AI lead. Love Fred's writings. Btw, I'd love to pitch Replicats.ai. We're building the first fully autonomous portfolio manager using crypto and is live now in beta.
