New Company Formation Architect

super{set} founds, funds, and builds category-winning SaaS companies. Since its founding in 2019, super{set} has launched over fifteen companies from its first $90M fund. All super{set} companies use data to help businesses unlock the promise of AI/ML while advancing ethical technology. super{set}’s founders are leading technologists and serial entrepreneurs Tom Chavez and Vivek Vaidya.

‍

The New Company Formation Architect is a critical member of our team. super{set} does not invest in outside companies. Every company we build is formed in-house, and we fully seed-fund that company until we invite outside investors in starting at Series A. The Formation Architect is charged with the ideation and diligence process of new market opportunities and the formation of new companies. They work side-by-side Tom and Vivek and the rest of the core super{set} team.

‍

This role is not a traditional venture investor position. This role is hands-on, entrepreneurial, and core to super{set}’s mission of company-building. The Formation Architect will have an outsized impact on setting the soil conditions for success for each new company we deploy our managed capital into. The Formation Architect’s daily responsibilities are closer to that of a product manager and a company founder.
