Highlights
As a product growth/marketing person your career will be severely limited in early-stage startups if you can't:
- write SQL/Python
- read code
I always recommend hiring people who can do their own data analysis and read code in any function over someone who can't.
You are at least 5x less effective as an early-stage product growth/marketing person if you can't read code and do your own analysis.
Fortunate to have been one of the very first pre-seed investors in Antares and to have had the opportunity to double down in every round (including this one).
Excited for @jordanbramble, @juliadewahl, and team to lead us into the nuclear-powered future!
