Tech spend fell 15%+ across 6 portfolio companies.
Two GTM motions went live at a portfolio company after a GTM analysis for its leadership team. A portfolio CEO's raise got a prioritized list of 20+ VCs. AWS partner acceptance came through for the portfolio.
The role
In-house CIO at a $500M+ growth equity fund, then technical diligence lead at a deep-tech AI fund, working with portfolio CEOs and CTOs on roadmaps and capital efficiency.
The build
A repeatable audit of AI architecture, data pipelines and benchmarks against each company's roadmap. At AIC, the same lens went into a GTM analysis for a portfolio leadership team and an investor-outreach plan with a portfolio CEO.
Key calls
Audited the stack against the roadmap.
Each audit checked whether the architecture and data pipelines could carry the plan the executives had set.
Read every roadmap against the runway.
Burn plan, financial model and revenue by product line, to see whether the company had the capital to deliver it.
