About the Digital Products Team

The Digital Products team is building software to support our mission of uplifting people and economies around the world. We create internal tools to bring efficiency and superpowers to our team. We create software that adds value to our founders and the startup community worldwide.
To better understand what we do: Picture yourself as a founder, navigating through the perks, knowledge, mentors and other resources that we provide you. They’re awesome, but they’re a lot, too. Creating and maintaining a catalog isn’t easy. How to improve its discoverability? Can we assess what’s helpful and what isn’t? Can we proactively determine what’s helpful to you at any given time?
Now think about similar problems faced by investors, and our teams. With so much information, spread throughout different chapters and organized differently, it can be a bit hard to keep up and find discoverability and synergy opportunities. These are the kind of questions we’re trying to answer, and find solutions to, with the power of software. This is what you will help us build.
