Venture Studio Analyst - Onni Capital

Job Description:

There is an exciting opportunity for a Venture Studio Analyst to join Onni Capital in Vancouver.

Onni Capital is a new investment and company building platform within the Onni Group. Operating at the intersection of a venture studio, private equity firm, and family office, we build new companies, invest in exceptional founders, and pursue opportunities where Onni’s capital, operating platform, real estate portfolio, and industry relationships create a meaningful advantage.

Onni Capital is being built from the ground up with the speed, ambition, and working style of a technology company. Our team works across venture creation, technology, private investments, fund investments, and special opportunities.

This is not a traditional corporate innovation department. This role exists to build companies.

As a Venture Studio Analyst, you will help take ideas from an initial problem through research, validation, financial modelling, product specification, prototyping, launch, and revenue. On a single project, you may interview users, size a market, build a financial model, create a working prototype, define a product roadmap, and present an investment or launch recommendation to senior leadership.

This is an opportunity for someone early in their career to gain unusual exposure to company building, capital allocation, product development, and executive decision making.

What You Will Do

• Build and launch new businesses within Onni, from problem definition through to a live product with real users and revenue

• Identify operational problems and commercial opportunities across Onni’s development, construction, property management, hospitality, finance, and investment businesses

• Interview internal stakeholders, customers, and end users to understand workflows, pain points, and unmet needs

• Translate user and business requirements into clear product specifications that designers and developers can act on

• Rapidly prototype working products, tools, workflows, and automations using modern AI assisted development platforms

• Hand validated and mature prototypes to the development team for production development and hardening

• Build business cases from a blank page, including market sizing, customer segmentation, pricing, revenue models, cost structures, capital requirements, and payback periods

• Quantify opportunities in terms of revenue, operating cost, hours saved, cycle time reduction, risk reduction, and customer value

• Design and run structured pilots with defined users, success metrics, deadlines, budgets, and clear continuation or shutdown criteria

• Develop go to market plans and support the acquisition and onboarding of initial customers

• Track adoption, customer feedback, revenue, costs, and measured impact following launch

• Present findings, recommendations, pilot results, and investment cases directly to senior leadership

• Research markets, competitors, technologies, founders, and vendors to determine what should be built, purchased, partnered with, invested in, or ignored

• Support the evaluation of external startup, private equity, fund, and special opportunity investments

• Document processes, tools, decisions, and operating standards so successful approaches can be repeated across the team

• Contribute to internal product reviews, investment discussions, demonstrations, and Onni Capital events

What You Bring

• Interest in business, engineering, computer science, economics, finance, or a related field

• Strong new graduates with relevant internships, startup experience, founder experience, or a track record of building meaningful projects will be considered

• Strong commercial judgment and the ability to connect customer problems to viable business models

• Strong financial modelling and Excel skills, including the ability to build an understandable business case from a blank sheet

• Demonstrated ability to use modern AI tools and AI assisted development environments to research, analyze, prototype, automate, and produce high quality work

• Working technical literacy, including comfort with APIs, data structures, SQL, basic scripting, automation tools, or a demonstrated ability to learn technical systems quickly

• The ability to write…
