- Help expand our founder network and become a Lemnos brand ambassador by attending conferences, meetups & industry events
- Screen inbound investment proposals
- Craft Lemnos outbound messaging
- Improve our institutional data warehouse, compiling and synthesizing portfolio knowledge

Who we are looking for:
- Inspired by emerging technologies, talented founders and early-stage startups

- One to three years experience in product development, startups, and/or consulting
- Comfortable reviewing engineering designs, business models, and co-writing articles to place on Medium, TechCrunch, etc.
If this opportunity sounds like a great match for your background and ambition, we’d love to hear from you. In addition to a resume or LinkedIn profile, we’d love to hear about why the Lemnos opportunity is so appealing to you, and in less than 750 words have you answer the question “What are the three biggest challenges hardware entrepreneurs face in the first year of their startup’s growth?” Please send this information to associatehiring@lemnoslabs.com and we’ll quickly respond if there is a match!
