Roles & Responsibilities

ABOUT XORA INNOVATION

Xora Innovation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Temasek, invests in disruptive, world-changing ventures forged by ambitious founders and powered by compelling scientific breakthroughs. Headquartered in Singapore, Xora is an early-stage deep tech investing company, wholly owned by Temasek. We are looking for individuals with creativity, intellect, passion, grit, curiosity, openness, and resilience.


ABOUT THE ROLE

We are seeking a Venture Fellow who will play a crucial role in working with Xora’s Venture Labs (XVLs)/ Venture builds.

The successful candidate will have a high bar of excellence and a ‘thinker-doer’, i.e., a strategically minded, yet hands-on and a strong communicator.

This position requires you to work from the Company’s headquarters in Singapore.


RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Venture Building: Collaborate with the investment team and portfolio companies to help incubate and scale new ventures. This includes working closely with Partners/founders/teams to define their value proposition, market positioning, and go-to-market strategies.
  • Building Key Functions: Assist portfolio companies in building foundational functions such as product development, go to market strategies, and business development. You will be expected to offer strategic insights, help hire key personnel and provide operational guidance.
  • Market Research & Analysis: Conduct deep-dive research on industry trends, emerging technologies, and competitive landscapes to support venture building and inform investment decisions.
  • Deal Sourcing: Help identify and evaluate potential opportunities, particularly in industries aligned with venture-building efforts, through outreach and networking with founders, industry experts, and other investors.
  • Due Diligence: Support the investment team by performing due diligence on prospective investments, with a focus on evaluating the strength of teams, market opportunities, and scalability of business models.
  • Portfolio Support: Work closely with existing portfolio companies, providing operational and strategic assistance, helping them build essential internal functions, and preparing them for subsequent funding rounds.

PROFESSIONAL QUALIFICATIONS

  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent in a relevant field.
  • Candidate must have a commercial or strong research background
  • For Commercial Backgrounds:
    Candidates should have Director-level or more senior experience at multinational corporations (MNCs) or scale up start ups within DeepTech/relevant domains, demonstrating a strong track record in driving growth, innovation, or strategic initiatives.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead strategic initiatives or drive innovation within a corporate environment, particularly those focused on cutting-edge technologies, product commercialization, or new market entry.
  • Strong business acumen and understanding of the technology commercialization process, including go-to-market strategies, product development cycles, and scaling operations from early-stage innovation to market penetration.
  • For Research Backgrounds:
    Candidates should be researchers with promising intellectual property (IP) that shows high potential for commercialization. Exceptional researchers without existing IP, but with a well-defined vision for scouting high-impact technologies, will also be considered.
  • Ability to develop and articulate a clear commercialization roadmap for research, identifying applications and market opportunities for the technology.
  • Researchers are expected to submit a thesis exploration proposal to Xora, which, if aligned with Xora’s objectives, will be supported and developed into a viable venture.
