It’s an exciting time here at Newcomer. It’s crazy to think that seven months ago, it was just me.

With my chief of staff, so far this year we’ve co-hosted the Cerebral Valley AI Summit, launched a YouTube channel, reinvented our podcast, and crossed 60,000 signups for our newsletter.

Our revenue is on track to more than double from last year — and we’re profitable and cash-flow positive. Newcomer is funded entirely based on its profits.

So, we’re excited to announce that we’re ready to expand our editorial team, bring on some interns, and solicit freelance pitches. If you want to work closely with me and be part of a fast-growing and innovative media startup, I’d love to hear from you.

Check out our open roles below.


Venture Capital and Startups Reporter
