Initio Raise powered by Initio Capital Remote
· Independent Contractor

Initio Raise is building a network of Investors in Residence (IIRs)—experienced angels, VCs, and capital allocators who help guide the next generation of investors inside our ecosystem.

This is a coaching and influence role
, not a capital deployment role.

You’ll work directly with angel investors and emerging fund managers
, helping them evaluate deals, refine their investment thesis, and make better decisions—while gaining access to curated deal flow and a growing investor network.

You bring judgment and experience
. We provide deal flow, infrastructure, and distribution
.
