About the role
About Us
Metal is building the world's most powerful intelligence platform for private market investors, putting cutting-edge AI in the hands of the most sophisticated firms on the planet.
In private markets, one thing defines success: the quality of your investment outcomes. Metal is the infrastructure-first platform built to sharpen every decision and build conviction across the full deal lifecycle, from sourcing to exit.
We're growing fast. Top-tier firms like Berkshire Partners and Clearlake Capital already run on Metal to move faster and invest smarter. Adoption is compounding, the category is ours to define, and we're backed to win it.
Our team is sharp, low-ego, and obsessed with the people we build for. We take ownership of hard, ambiguous problems and we move fast. If you do your best work close to the customer and want to shape how the best investors in the world operate, we'd love to meet you.
The Role
Metal is redefining how private markets operate. But lasting impact means our platform has to live inside how firms run their investment process and make decisions. The Forward Deployed Investor is how we get there.
You'll sit at the intersection of top-tier investment teams and their AI evolution, pairing deep private markets expertise with real customer empathy and a strong instinct for how AI reshapes an investment firm. You'll help customers rethink the way they work, and translate what you learn on the ground into Metal's product and go-to-market direction.
You'll work directly with the founding team and our most strategic customers to drive adoption and ROI. You are the voice of the customer across Product and Sales, and one of the people deciding how private investors operate in an AI-driven world.
What You'll Do
-
Define how AI is used in private markets. Identify and expand high-impact use cases across sourcing, diligence, and decision-making, and turn what works into best practices and deployment frameworks for how investment teams adopt Metal.
