Who we are
Melotech is revolutionizing media and entertainment. We create art through technology for humans to enjoy. In just 24 months, our work has been heard, watched and loved for over 4 billion minutes worldwide.
Founded by entrepreneur and investor Soheil Mirpour, we are backed by top VCs Cherry Ventures, Speedinvest and GFC, alongside world-class angels from firms such as Spotify, Blackstone and KKR.
What you will do
In this role, you will build and run our investment activity in media and entertainment, from strategy to execution. We will walk you through exactly what we are building as you go through the process. You'll work autonomously as the driving force behind our investment strategy and fundraising efforts, making independent decisions that directly shape our company's trajectory and establish us as the category-defining platform in this space. On a typical day, your tasks may include:
Building relationships with investors and leading capital conversations, from the first narrative to commitment
Identifying, evaluating and executing investment opportunities across media and entertainment
Structuring transactions and partnerships together with legal, finance and external advisers
Building and maintaining relationships with key stakeholders across the entertainment industry, financial markets, and investment community
Developing innovative transaction frameworks and investment structures in collaboration with legal, finance, and external partners
Managing the performance of our investments over time
Who you are
You're an investment professional with deep expertise in evaluating financial assets and managing transaction workstreams. You thrive working independently in dynamic environments where your decisions directly impact performance, and you excel at translating market insights into actionable investment strategies, while building relationships across investors and peers. Typically, your profile will look like this:
Degree in Finance, Business, Economics, Mathematics, or related quantitative field from a top-tier university
3+ years experience at Tier 1 investment banks, Tier 1 consulting firms, private equity funds, venture capital firms, or specialized entertainment investors
Expert-level proficiency in financial modeling, deal structuring, due diligence, and investor relations
You thrive in a fast-paced and performance-oriented environment
Colleagues would describe you as hard-working, ambitious and persistent
You’re obsessed with music, video or social media
What makes this exciting
You are one of the first employees of an ambitious team, changing the world of media and entertainment. Being early means every decision you make shapes our trajectory. You're not a cog in the machine but the captain of your own ship, rewarded for performance and respected for leadership. Flat hierarchies mean that your voice matters, your ideas get implemented, and your impact is immediate.
We pay competitive salaries and make you an owner of the business with equity. We work remotely to give you complete freedom over your life, while meeting regularly around the world for global offsites where we strategize, bond, and push boundaries together.
