Making hedge funds easy to create and operate.
ABOUT US:
Repool is a fintech software company that is modernizing infrastructure for hedge funds. US hedge funds account for $3.5T of assets but rely upon antiquated services and technology from fractured service providers, and there's an enormous opportunity to challenge longstanding incumbents and gain significant market share.
Founded in 2021, Repool is a YC S21 with over $4M in funding from top firms like Canaan, Matrix, and Uncorrelated, as well as angel investors including founders from unicorns like Brex, Jeeves, Mercury, Flexport, Outschool, Pilot, and Forge.
The team currently has 8 employees, primarily in NYC. This role will be in-person approximately 4 days a week in NYC.
THE ROLE:
We're hiring for an organized, smart, and ambitious junior account executive to join our team as our second business-facing hire. We're open to taking a bet on someone who has not yet been an AE and is trying to advance their career and learn real sales skills - which, in candor, many tech companies do not teach.
At Repool, you'll own and run a primarily inbound based deal funnel end-to-end, working directly with emerging and existing fund managers, typically in the range of single digit to double digit millions of assets. You'll develop highly transferable skills, learn complex regulatory and legal frameworks, and bring managers onto the Repool platform.
Our co-founder, Kevin Fu, is an award-winning sales executive who has been the first sales hire at an early stage startup twice, including as the Head of Revenue at Vitally. He's built out SDR and AE teams and you'll work closely with him to build out your sales skillset and become an exceptional salesperson.

REPOOL BENEFITS:
Despite being an early stage startup, you'll find that we provide benefits better than most companies our stage. We don't want joining early to mean critical concessions in security or your well being. Consequently, we're proud to offer:
WHAT'S IMPORTANT TO US:
Repool is building modern hedge fund infrastructure. We make it extremely easy and fast to launch and operate hedge funds, like Carta/Angellist for hedge funds.
We're attacking the legacy fund services space, which is a multi-dozen-billion dollar industry, yet comprised almost entirely by antiquated, manual-workflow heavy incumbents with human-capital intensive workflow. There's an immense opportunity for disruption as a true first-mover (see Angellist's $4B valuation doing something very similar with venture) that's incredibly exciting, and investors agree - just two months after being founded, we raised $3.7M in our Seed round from top investors like Canaan, Matrix, and Global Founders Capital, with angel investors like the founders of Brex, Mercury, Jeeves, and Forge.
Repool is an extremely transparent company with a focus on making sure we provide a transformative career experience for our employees - regardless of our own growth trajectory. We care deeply about avoiding common startup pitfalls and building a strong, reasonable, and formidable culture that helps employees with their next step, whether that be in 2 years or 10 years, and whether that be as a manager or IC. We also think that we are - given the space we're in - taking on some truly novel fintech and regtech challenges that are intellectually interesting no matter where you sit in the org.
At Repool, you'll closely with two founders who have robust prior operating experience at extremely successful growth startups. Justin was a senior and early engineer at Brex, where he was known for being an exceptional project manager and particularly strong at solving complex regulatory challenges via engineering. Kevin was the Head of Revenue and employee #4 at Vitally, where he lead the team to a Series A from a16z.
