About QAI Ventures QAI Ventures is a Swiss-based global venture capital firm and ecosystem builder headquartered in Basel, Switzerland.
We invest across the advanced computing value chain, from quantum technologies to enabling technologies, from pre‑seed through Series C.
Our platform combines a venture fund, accelerator programs in Switzerland, Singapore, and Canada, and a corporate offering.
This combination is what sets us apart from pure‑play VCs: we not only fund companies, we help create them.
Tasks You will run QAI's venture‑building practice hands‑on: from opportunity sourcing and company creation to the moment a venture is ready for our Investment Committee.
This is an operational role: you build companies, set up founding teams, design financing structures, and ensure every case that reaches IC is fund‑ready.
Venture building at QAI means turning deep scientific capability into investable companies, and you are accountable for the results.
You report to the Head of Investments.
QAI is organized as a matrix: you will work across the fund team, the science there is no team to delegate to.
Comfort working across teams, functions, and time zones through defined coordination points; this is a delivery role, not a cross‑functional leadership mandate.
Experience within a regulated fund environment (AIFMD or comparable) is a plus.
Based in Basel or within commuting distance, or ready to relocate.
Benefits How We Work Responsibility at QAI sits close to the work: you get a clearly defined domain, make decisions within it, and report transparently.
No surprises, in either direction.
Coordination happens across teams and offices through defined handoffs, which means clarity about roles and goals matters more here than hierarchy.
What we expect from each other: open and direct dialogue, also when it is uncomfortable.
Psychological safety: mistakes, questions, and uncertainty can be raised without fear.
Respect, especially in disagreement.
No ego games: the overall result counts, not the defense of one's own turf.
Commitments hold, and whoever cannot deliver says so early.
Results matter, not hours or presence.
Engagement is seen and recognized.
And most importantly, we are kind.
Humanity and clarity are not a contradiction here.
What We Offer A clearly defined mandate with real responsibility for venture‑building delivery, within a global platform dedicated to quantum and next‑generation compute.
Close collaboration with the investment team, including presenting your cases directly at the Investment Committee.
An international working environment: Basel headquarters, offices in Singapore and Canada, and a global portfolio and ecosystem.
Room to develop the venture‑building methodology, with the support of an experienced team.
A hybrid working model with roughly 50% of your time at our Basel headquarters. #J-18808-Ljbffr
