[Hiring] Founders Associate - Fundraise Lead @Melotech

Role Description

Melotech is scaling fast, and fundraising is not a once-a-cycle sprint for us, it is a standing capability. As the Fundraise Lead, you own everything around our investor story and run it constantly. You work directly alongside our founder and CEO on the highest-stakes work in the company. On a typical day, your tasks may include:

• Crafting our fundraising story and sparring with the founder until every line lands
• Creating amazing pitch decks, visuals, and demos that make investors lean forward
• Establishing and maintaining a network of investors across the globe
• Leading and preparing investor calls
• Running the machine behind the raise
• Living in the financial model: building and maintaining the financial models
• Staying plugged into the venture ecosystem, always on top of what is hot, who is writing checks, and what works

Qualifications

• A very structured, capable generalist: consulting or banking trained, with the polish and rigor that comes with it
• Real venture experience on top, and plenty of it: you have sat on the investor side and know how funds actually decide
• Your VC exposure leans growth: you understand how Series B and beyond gets done
• You are fully at home in a financial model and can build one from scratch that survives diligence
• You craft narratives and slides at a level where people ask who made them
• You run processes tightly: pipelines, follow-ups, and data rooms are never stale on your watch
• You are plugged into the ecosystem: you know the funds, the partners, and the rounds that are happening right now
• You thrive in a fast-paced and performance-oriented environment
• A big plus: you have supported a raise end to end before, on either side of the table, and you bring an investor network of your own

Benefits

• Competitive salaries
• Equity ownership in the business
• Remote work for complete freedom over your life
• Regular global offsites for strategizing, bonding, and pushing boundaries together

Process

We hire on a rolling basis. Earliest starting date is always ASAP. Once you begin our process, you can progress from start to offer within a week, depending on how quickly you can move through each stage:

• Initial interview: 30-minute introductory call - getting to know you
• Case interview: 90-minute case discussion - present and debate your skills
• Founder interview: 90-minute interview with our CEO - going deep on all topics
• Offer, contract signing, and onboarding

Note: As we are still in stealth, you will learn more about Melotech as you progress through the stages. By the end of the Founder interview, you will have a full grasp of our business and the details of your role.
