Job Description
ABOUT VECTORS CAPITAL Vectors Capital is a venture capital firm investing in breakthrough technologies that accelerate global decarbonization. We back founders building transformative solutions across energy systems, AI infrastructure, semiconductors, industrial innovation, and climate infrastructure. Our platform combines venture capital with strategic corporate partnerships, helping technologies scale across major global industries. We operate globally — with portfolio companies, partners, and investors across North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. WHY WE'RE HIRING Vectors Capital is launching our next fund. As we prepare for this next chapter, we are building a talent pool to support different functions across the firm — investment, accelerator and program management, ecosystem and partnerships, and operations. Our next fund invests across the AI compute value chain and its energy backbone — the interconnected stack that runs from chips to data centers to power, and the AI applications that this infrastructure enables. Specifically, we focus on four themes: Energy transition and the energy tech value chain — clean power generation, grid and transmission, storage, and the electrification stack that powers the AI buildout Data center efficiency across the value chain — compute, cooling, power delivery, siting, and the infrastructure layer between energy and AI Semiconductors and chips — AI compute, power and specialty semiconductors, advanced packaging, and energy-efficient architectures AI applications that drive sustainability and net zero — across transportation, energy, logistics, materials discovery, and other industries where AI can meaningfully reduce emissions Candidates with backgrounds across any of these areas are ideal, though we remain open to strong candidates from adjacent climate and deep-tech fields. We are hiring at the Analyst, Associate, and Principal level. This is a hands-on role at a lean firm — team members are expected to wear many hats across investing, program management, partnerships, and operations. INVESTMENT FOCUS Vectors invests across Energy Transition & Energy Tech Value Chain — clean power, grid, storage, electrification (next fund focus) Data Center Efficiency — compute, cooling, power delivery, siting infrastructure (next fund focus) Semiconductors & Chips — AI compute, power semiconductors, advanced packaging, energy-efficient architectures (next fund focus) AI for Sustainability — applications across transportation, energy, logistics, materials discovery, and other industries (next fund focus) Clean Transportation & Sustainable Fuels — batteries, charging, hydrogen, SAF, mobility Industrial Decarbonization & Biomanufacturing — sustainable chemicals, next-gen industrial processes Carbon Capture & Carbon Markets — CCUS, carbon tracking, carbon credit infrastructure Circular Economy & Materials — recycling, sustainable materials, waste-to-value Climate Adaptation & Intelligence — climate risk analytics, resilient infrastructure, data platforms THE ROLE You'll get exposure to the full venture investment lifecycle: sourcing, diligence, execution, portfolio support, and ecosystem building. Because we operate as a lean and entrepreneurial team, team members gain hands-on experience across venture investing, accelerator programs, corporate partnerships, and global venture ecosystems. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES Deal Sourcing & Theses Identify and build relationships with founders developing breakthrough technologies across the AI–compute–energy value chain Conduct market research and develop investment theses in emerging sectors Build networks across startups, research labs, corporates, and venture investors Investment Analysis & Execution Lead diligence including market research, technology evaluation, and financial analysis Prepare investment memos and present opportunities to the investment team Support investment structuring and negotiations Senior team members may lead deals end-to-end and serve as board observers or members Portfolio Support Work with founders on strategic initiatives, partnerships, and follow-on financing Introduce portfolio companies to corporate partners, customers, and co-investors Accelerator & Venture Programs Vectors runs different types of venture programs from time to time.
