About us

Harmonic is the startup discovery engine. We believe in innovation, entrepreneurs, and efficient capital markets. It pains us to see great startup opportunities consistently go undiscovered.

The world’s largest and most prolific venture capital firms rely on us to find and invest in the next Google, AirBnB, Uber, Stripe, and Anduril. We play a crucial part in ensuring hundreds of billions of dollars get routed efficiently and that the innovations the world would most benefit from materialize.

We’re just getting started and have mountains of work ahead of us. If you want to work in a high-growth environment with some of the most talented folks on the planet and resonate with our values, read on.
