Job description

Opportunity Overview

Epic Sports VC invites driven individuals to become a Founder in Residence, building a new venture aimed at Lifetime Athletes. The company delivers the foundational elements including the strategic thesis, domain knowledge, audience, funding, and operational framework, while seeking passionate leaders to accelerate growth and innovation to establish a market-leading business.

Key Qualifications

The ideal candidates embody four essential qualities:

  • Lifetime Athlete: Deeply engaged in sports through competition, training, or coaching, possessing intimate understanding of athlete needs and perspectives.
  • Builder DNA: Proven track record of launching a company, product, or community with nimble execution and attention to detail.
  • Owner Mindset: Motivated by equity ownership rather than salary, prepared to lead the venture as if it were their own.
  • Studio Native: Prefers building upon an established thesis and domain expertise to leverage prior groundwork over starting from zero.

Application Process

Applicants are asked to specify which of the 49 available ventures they wish to develop or propose their own, describe their relevant experience, and articulate why they are the best fit to lead the venture. A cover letter and optional resume or portfolio links are also part of the submission.
