Jay Zhao, Jenny Xiao · The Thesis by Leonis

When we started building Leonis Capital, we made a decision early: we’d rather be early and right than loud and late. So we built the firm around research, technical depth, and a healthy allergy to consensus.

Along the way, our partners backed companies like Anthropic, Airbnb, Marqeta, MaintainX, and Motion.

Now we’re at a new chapter: we’re hiring a Partner-Track VC Associate (SF-based) — someone to operate as our right hand, and take the third seat on the rocket as we build a true Seed/Pre-Seed firm from the ground up.

If you’ve ever thought, “I wish I could help build the venture firm, not just work at one,” this is that shot.

And if someone comes to mind, forward this email — we’ve got Leonis swag for great referrals :)
