I’ve been in your seat—pitching in the morning, fixing bugs at lunch, interviewing before dinner. I needed operators, not theory. People who understood runway, customers, and the next hire’s impact on revenue.
That’s why I started Funded.club.
We help startups do three things better:
-
Manage money — clear pitch, clean process, and management reporting that investors trust.
-
Predict success — combine data with hard-won judgment to make better growth bets.
-
Hire smarter — Hiring Sprints that put interview-ready candidates in front of you fast (first candidates in 7 days, shortlist in 14). Focused on GTM, Product & Engineering, and leadership.
AI + humans when it matters, human judgment where it counts:
-
Helped teams across six continents sharpen the story and get funded, faster.
-
Serving >400 startups and scale-ups; clients save time and money by hiring smarter and faster.
-
67% of our placed candidates are still in role after 24 months (and counting).
If you’re scaling and want a partner who’s been there and gets things done, let’s talk—happy to hold a Hiring Sprint slot for your next key role.
