How can software engineers work with VCs and PEs?

Welcome back to I'm a Software Engineer ~ What Next? The podcast for devs figuring out their next move. Hosted by James Wilson and Matt Sinclair, we talk honestly about what it takes to build a meaningful career in tech.

In this episode, we speak with Danielle Ullner, a veteran venture builder with extensive experience in the US VC space as an operator and executor and, more recently, with BCG Digital Ventures and BCG X in London and North America. She helps us, as engineers, understand how to work with one of the most critical segments of the digital venture building workforce: VCs.

In this episode, we cover:

  • Understanding the VC and PE ecosystem
  • How software engineers can effectively work with venture capitalists
  • The role of desirability, viability, and feasibility in venture building
  • Navigating career transitions into venture-backed startups
  • Building relationships with investors and stakeholders
