Operating Partner: Capital Formation

Job description

**New York City (Preferred) | Equity-Based Partner Role** **About C10 Labs** C10 Labs is an AI fund and venture studio with operations in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and New York City. We back exceptional founders, researchers, and operators — and we build and invest in AI companies across enterprise software, healthcare, life sciences, energy, climate, manufacturing, and scientific discovery. Our platform combines venture investing, venture creation, founder support, and ecosystem development. Through our accelerator programs, our studio, and a growing network of investors, operators, and industry leaders, we help founders turn breakthrough technology into venture-scale companies. As we prepare for Fund II and expand in New York, we are adding an Operating Partner to grow our LP investor base, build corporate and strategic partnerships, and drive capital formation. **The Opportunity** **This is not a traditional operating role.** It is a partner-level seat for someone who wants real ownership in building one of the leading AI venture platforms in New York and beyond. We are looking for a deeply connected operator, investor, or executive who will work capital formation and high-value partnerships in parallel — bringing capital in and putting the relationships around it to work for C10 and its portfolio companies. The right person brings two things at once: deep limited-partner relationships across venture capital, family offices, institutional investors, and corporate venture; and the standing to open doors with corporates, strategic partners, and commercial buyers. What changes outcomes here is not a title — it is who trusts you, and what you can set in motion on both sides of that ledger. This role is built for someone motivated by long-term ownership — building something durable alongside the C10 leadership team, not collecting a salary.
