Job description

Join to apply for the Entrepreneur in Residence role at Lightcone Capital .

Responsibilities

  • Discover attractive market opportunities, Jobs To Be Done / customer pain points, and business models for new high‑margin digital‑first companies. Identify the problems we are solving, the target audience, the reason, and market size.
  • Define the value proposition, go‑to‑market strategy, roadmap, and financial model. Include unit economics, scaling levers, and success metrics for 1‑3 years.
  • Launch and iterate on the Minimum Lovable Product / Service (MLP / S) using low / no‑code tools. Measure the KPIs that matter.

  • No work is beneath you . Adopt a get‑shit‑done attitude and an on‑it‑now approach.
  • Strong opinions, loosely held . Love numbers and back everything with evidence; research, track, clean, and crunch data to support an evidence‑driven approach.
  • Optimism as an Operating System . Maintain a high happiness baseline, handle high‑pressure situations calmly, and provide candid feedback.
  • Benefits

  • Work directly with Founding Partners with a track record of three exits and eight companies.
  • Low to no bureaucracy.
