Today, we’re announcing a new initiative to help technical founders launch a company that serves startups and / or venture capital investors.

The Technical Entrepreneur in Residence (EIR) program is designed for engineers who anticipate starting a company in the next 2-3 years. The program will combine real-world product & engineering work at AngelList Venture with the ability to meet top founders and investors. EIRs will gain a deep understanding of how venture capital and startups work by building products that serve VCs and founders.

At the end of the two-year program, AngelList plans to invest at least $150k in companies started by EIRs and introduce participants to top investors.

EIRs will:

  • Work on a product line within AngelList that serves startup founders or venture capitalists, either through zero to one products within AngelList Stack or on fundraising products like Rolling Funds.
  • Build & ship software every day.
  • Interact with top founders and emerging fund managers.
  • Learn about venture capital & scaling a startup.
  • Receive a competitive salary & benefits.

Apply if you:

  • Have a technical background.
  • Want to start a company sometime in the next three years.

The first batch of applications opens today and is open for two weeks, until March 21st.

FAQ

Do I need to be based in the U.S.?

  • No. This program is remote.

Do I have to be technical?

  • Yes, this program is best suited for full-stack software engineers.

What is the application process?

  1. Submit application
  2. Technical evaluation
  3. Panel of interviews and reference check

Can I work on my own idea during the program? What if I already have an idea and want to work on it today?

  • The program is designed for participants who do not have a specific idea they want to work on. If you already have an idea that you want to work on, you should start a financing-ready company on AngelList Stack.

  • No.

What if I’m ready to start something before the two year program is up?

  • That’s great. The two year program length is intended as a guideline.
