Venture Capital Jobs and Internships at Goodwater

We believe in the power of consumer technology to measurably improve billions of lives across the globe.

We invest in the world’s most promising entrepreneurs to help companies solve the most pressing problems that people face every day.

The world’s first closed-loop investment platform. 

We don’t seek to extract value.

Instead, we seek out new ways to nurture sustainable and mutually-beneficial cycles of growth.

THE GOODWATER APPROACH

Our investment approach starts with Genesis, a program that provides resources and wisdom to an unprecedented population of seed-stage entrepreneurs. It grows through Capital, with powerful investments in consumer technology startups that are shaping global culture and transforming the global economy. And finally, the loop closes with Collective, reinvesting profits back into Goodwater portfolio companies to provide consumer technology services for those in need.

1. Genesis: Our Genesis program is built to democratize access to seed funding and entrepreneurial guidance, opening doors that have traditionally felt more like hurdles than opportunities. It equips founders everywhere with startup curriculum, data, software, insights, wisdom, and a curated community that allows entrepreneurs to learn from our deep experiences, and from one another.
2. Capital: We invest in consumer technology companies across seven categories that enable human flourishing — housing, health care, food, financial services, transportation, education, and entertainment. We provide founders and their leadership teams with access to decades of experience and wisdom, tools to help them build successful products, and a like-minded community of entrepreneurs. Altogether, this helps founders effectively scale their companies on the path to becoming market leaders.
3. Collective: Goodwater Collective reinvests our profits back into our network of companies. Through grant funding, we enable companies in our portfolio to deliver their products to underserved communities at affordable prices, or for free. Designed and funded here at Goodwater, the Collective enables companies to improve access to scalable, high-quality services for people who most need it, while also embedding an ethos of service into the core of a business from the earliest stages.

We have decades of experience. Our ecosystem includes hundreds of companies from around the world, serving every major consumer need, and impacting hundreds of millions of lives for the better.

We back the world’s most promising entrepreneurs, and help them build tangible, scalable solutions.

Our software-enabled model combined with our values-driven investment practices ensures consistently exceptional outcomes not only for entrepreneurs, employees and LP’s, but also for society at large.
