We are hiring AI/ML engineers across multiple portfolio companies simultaneously. A single conversation with our team opens the door to many of the most exciting AI companies being built right now. You tell us what you're excited about, and we introduce you to the right founders.This is not a role at Felicis. You would join one of our portfolio companies as a full-time engineer.
What You'd Work On The specific work depends on which company you join. Broadly, we're looking for engineers who fit one or more of these profiles:
The common thread: you build things that work, move fast, and are genuinely excited about what AI can do.
At Felicis, we back founders with the courage to build before success is obvious. Felicis means “fortunate” and while there’s a tremendous amount of luck involved in building a market-defining company, we believe luck is something you engineer through courage, imagination, and decisive action. In the early days, founders need a trusted partner who shares their conviction (ahead of traction or validation) and can give them exactly what they need to accelerate their growth curve. We move fast and commit early. We always vote our shares alongside founders. Beyond capital, we invest 1% on top of every first check to support founders’ performance. Since our founding in 2006, we’ve raised 10 funds and have more than $3.9B AUM. Felicis-backed founders have built 50+ $1B+ companies, achieved 125+ exits, and generated $220B+ in market value, including Shopify, Adyen, Credit Karma, Cruise, Twitch, Plaid, Ginkgo Bioworks, Guardant Health, Meraki, and Ring. Active portfolio includes Canva, Crusoe, LMArena, Mercor, n8n, Notion, poolside, Runway, Revel, Skild AI, Supabase, Tines, and Semgrep.

No applications, no recruiter spam. Just the intro.
A few questions to make sure this role is the right shape for you. Two minutes.
I write the intro, send it to the founder, and handle the back-and-forth.
If they’re a yes, I book the chat. You show up — that’s the whole job-hunt.
