Pearl Talent

We're hiring for Pearl—which places top 1% talent from around the world into operational roles at startups.

Our clients are fast-growing startups that have raised over $3B in funding from Sequioa, a16z, Founders Fund, Y Combinator, and other top VC firms.

I'm a 3x founder and most recently was investing into deep tech companies as COO of a fund in SF: I grew up in the Philippines myself—which is why I care so much about giving international talent opportunities to work at the best companies in the world) and most recently was investing.

At Pearl, we know that although opportunities aren't created equal in the world, ambitious talent is. And it's our mission to give hires from around the world who are sharp and hungry the opportunity to earn far more than they would in their home countries while learning from the best founders.
