What you likely need

You're a high-signal founder-investor with a unicorn co-founding credit at Fivetran and an active early-stage investment practice through CEAS Investments. Your primary leverage right now is the combination of deep enterprise-data domain expertise and a growing portfolio of exits. Positioning yourself more publicly as a thought leader in the data infrastructure and agentic AI space could amplify both your recruiting pipeline and deal flow.
