About the role

At Shaper, we're on a mission to partner with incredible people to build companies that shape the world. We're the company-building engine of Travis May, who co-founded and led the two largest data exits of the last 20 years: LiveRamp (NYSE: RAMP, $200M+ revenue) and Datavant ($7B merger with Ciox). Now he's applying that playbook to solve data fragmentation across every major industry, from healthcare to national security to supply chain to AI. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • We care most that you can show you've handled ambiguous, demanding work and delivered, whether in consulting or another high-throughput environment. Prior startup experience is not required
  • Figure-it-out operator: You find a path through ambiguity instead of waiting for one to be defined
  • High throughput: You move multiple projects at once, quickly and to a high bar
  • Resourceful: When there's no obvious answer, you find one
  • Humble and hands-on: No task is beneath you, and you're comfortable doing the work yourself
  • Eager to learn: You want to learn how startups actually operate
