Founder & Ecosystem Development - Build a dense, trusted network across founders, angels, scouts, venture funds, operators, and entrepreneurial communities. Develop real market presence in the places where exceptional founders actually emerge. Expand Redesign’s network and visibility in the AI healthcare ecosystem by tracking which operators are turning into founders, which micro-communities are producing breakout talent, and where conviction is building before the rest of the market catches up. Bring those insights back into Redesign’s investment process and broader platform.
Active Founder Sourcing - Source high-potential pre-seed investment opportunities through relationship-driven founder sourcing. Identify founders who fit Redesign’s from pre-idea founders just starting to explore their next venture to founders leading pre-seed stage companies. Sourcing should cover operator networks, universities, accelerators, founder communities, events/dinners, and other relevant digital channels via a combination of active in-market engagement and desk sourcing. You’ll maintain an active, high-quality pipeline of founders / deals and have a strong point of view on the level of attention needed for each to convert.
Maintaining Our Founder Bar - Understand what exceptional founders look like and ensure that our founders in our pipeline reflect that expectation. As you continue to engage founders, you should be relaying learnings for founder attributes and signals we should prioritize as part of any future sourcing activities.
Team Ecosystem Orchestration Design and orchestrate Redesign’s broader ecosystem presence. Map the universities, accelerators, regional ecosystems, founder communities, and events where Redesign should have sustained relationships, and create opportunities for other members of the investment team to engage directly. You are both a pilot and air traffic controller: personally deep in the highest-priority networks while routing teammates into the right rooms, relationships, and conversations so that Redesign’s coverage multiplies beyond any single person’s reach.
Partnering with Founders from Sourcing Through Diligence & IC - Build trust quickly with founders and engage credibly from the first conversation. You’ll work alongside founders through evaluation, diligence, and the lead-up to their IC pitch. For founders just starting to explore what’s next, you’ll speak competently across Redesign thesis areas to both entice them and demonstrate our insight into the healthcare market. During diligence, you’ll surface key questions that would impact an investment decision and support process management with speed and rigor. While the role is sourcing-first, it offers meaningful exposure to how conviction is built and how investment decisions get made.
AI-Native Sourcing Systems - Build and continuously refine an AI-enabled sourcing engine. Use data signals, workflow automation, network mapping, market monitoring, and AI tools to identify founder targets, prioritize outreach, track ecosystem movement, and improve sourcing productivity.
