micro1 is engaging Venture Capital Associates to contribute to a groundbreaking project focused on building datasets that capture the nuanced workflows of modern venture capital. In this role, you'll apply your expertise to help train next-generation AI systems. Your work will shape how models learn, reason, and perform through high-quality, real-world input. No prior experience in AI is required — your domain knowledge is what matters.
Scope of Work
- Design and author project tasks that reflect authentic VC workflows, including deal screening, market sizing (TAM/SAM/SOM), competitive analysis, founder evaluation, and investment committee (IC) memorandum drafting.
- Analyze early-stage and growth startups across financials, product-market fit, market opportunities, competitive positioning, and team effectiveness with the rigor and depth expected at partner meetings.
- Construct and interpret financial projections, cap tables, and scenario analyses for early-stage companies.
- Assess and provide qualitative feedback on AI-generated content, evaluating pattern-matching, market sizing, and how well outputs mirror real-world VC judgment.
- Collaborate with project leads to calibrate evaluation rubrics, refine task complexity, and identify content gaps across sectors and company stages.
- Document methodologies and standardize best practices that reflect modern VC analysis and decision-making processes.
Preferred Qualifications
- 3–6+ years of experience at a venture capital, growth equity firm, or as an operator/founder with significant deal evaluation exposure.
- MBA, Master’s in Finance, or equivalent advanced degree; graduates of Wharton or other top-tier programs strongly welcomed.
- Direct experience crafting IC memos and performing diligence on deals reviewed by investment partners.
- Proven ability to conduct market sizing, founder assessment, and competitive landscape analysis under ambiguity.
- Exceptional written communication skills, demonstrated by concise, precise, and analytical documentation at a professional or IC-memo standard.
- Strong analytical reasoning, especially in situations with incomplete or ambiguous data.
- Experience working across various company stages (pre-seed to growth) and across multiple sectors is a plus.

Skills and AI tools this role asks for
Questions you could be asked
- How do you check AI-generated content before it ships?
- This role expects you to use AI tools as part of the job. Which ones have you used, and for what?
- Tell me about a time an AI tool got something wrong. How did you catch it?
Adapt your resume
- List these exact terms on your resume: AI Content. An applicant tracking system matches the wording, not the idea.
- Attach one line of real, concrete experience to at least one of them. A tool named with nothing behind it rarely survives a human read.
- Put the AI tool in a bullet point about what you did, not just in a skills list. This role treats it as a required part of the job.
