Founder

Plus Plus helps founders hire the research and engineering talent to build the coming generation of AI-first businesses. We see both near-term (e.g., AI for code, AI to augment intelligence) and long-term (e.g. AI for biology, Embodied AI) opportunities to create foundational new businesses amidst all the hype. We build companies with exceptionally high talent density. We are technical recruiters who are actually technical. We can hold an intelligent conversation with anyone. We geek out on startups, products, markets, research papers, leadership, all of it. We operate with integrity, curiosity and excellence.
