Venture Capital Jobs and Internships at Outlander VC

We support founders from first check to exit.

To change the world, you'll need more than just capital; you need experts to embark on this expedition with you. That’s where we come in.

We fund tech to solve the world's biggest problems from startups with:

1. Team: You are a visionary founder or an established founding team. Ideally, one founder is technical and another is focused on another key part of the business.
2. Vision: You’ve got outlandish ideas to solve big problems. You have a clear vision and are uniquely qualified to solve your customer’s problem.
3. Strategy: Your business idea is fully-developed, including supporting market research and analysis. You have a business plan in place or—for pre-revenue companies—a plan for how the business will eventually generate revenue.
4. Customer: Whether you are selling to other enterprises or directly to consumers, you understand your customer and what problem you are solving for them.
5. MVP: From a landing page validating your idea to a prototype, you are ready to show us what your vision looks like in practice, not just in theory.

What categories of tech do we invest in?

We are generalists who don't fit neatly into any single category. Lately, we've been excited about founders innovating in:

• Future of Commerce + Work
• Hardware + AI
• Web3

...but that's just a handful of our latest portfolio additions! Keep exploring our Funding FAQs to see if you're a good fit.

A strong founding team is our #1 investment criterion.

The Outlander Founder Framework empowers our team to build conviction for early-stage startups before most investors—often pre-product and pre-revenue—by screening for founding teams with extraordinary:

• VISION — innovative solution to a clearly defined problem
• INTELLIGENCE — extraordinary IQ + EQ to solve the world's biggest problems
• CHARACTER — strength to persevere through hardship + rally others to join you
• EXECUTION — ability to act quickly, decisively, + advance into the unknown

Currently, the Framework consists of 38 characteristics divided into these four categories. Outstanding founders need strength in each area.
