What you likely need

You're the co-founder and CEO of Fivetran, a $5.6B unicorn that has raised over $853M and is a recognized leader in automated data movement. Your technical credibility is strong — you're actively shipping code on GitHub and have deep roots in the YC community. The next phase of your journey likely involves navigating a potential IPO, scaling global enterprise sales, and cementing Fivetran's position as the default data movement layer in an AI-first world.

Are these your current priorities?

We will tune and customize your Founder Festival experience to make sure you get invited to the events that would be most valuable to you.

  • positioningDouble down on positioning Fivetran as the foundational data movement layer for AI workloads, given the current wave of AI infrastructure investment and your existing 5,000+ customer base.
  • hiringAccelerate enterprise go-to-market hiring — with 1,345 employees and 30% YoY headcount growth, focus on senior enterprise AEs and solutions engineers to capture the AI data pipeline opportunity.
  • introsLeverage your YC W13 network to recruit from newer YC batches building AI-native data tools — either as acqui-hire targets or strategic partnership candidates.
  • positioningCapitalize on the Salesforce 'Pay to Connect' controversy by publishing a clear public narrative about open data access — your LinkedIn posts show this is already resonating with customers.
  • tacticalConsider open-sourcing a connector or tooling component on GitHub to build developer community around Fivetran — your active coding presence (push 0 days ago) gives you personal credibility to lead this.
  • wellbeingAt 13+ years as CEO of a high-growth unicorn, proactively invest in executive coaching and peer CEO networks (e.g., YC CEO dinners) to sustain long-term leadership energy.
