Careers at Zynergy
Do the hardest and most meaningful work of your career, alongside people who will hold you to your best and help you reach it.
Zynergy invests in AI, technology and innovation across public and private markets. The problems are hard, the standards are high and the team is small, so your work matters from your first week. If you want to work at the frontier of technology and help build what comes next, we want to hear from you.
“Amateurs practice until they get it right. Professionals practice until they can’t get it wrong.”
Our motto
Veritas mente et manu, fortiter et suaviter.
We value quality of character first, and technical capability and performance second. The two work together: character decides what is worth doing, and capability gets it done.
Veritas · Truth
Character first
Tell the truth when it’s inconvenient, own the outcome when it’s hard, and treat every person with respect. We hire for integrity before anything else.
Mens · Mind
Think deeply
Reason from first principles, question the consensus and see the world as it can be, not as it is.
Manus · Hand
Execute with diligence
Ideas matter only when they’re built. Tactful, process-driven execution means doing the work right every time, until it can’t go wrong.
Fortiter · Suaviter
Resolute in action, grace in manner
Hold the highest standard and pursue it relentlessly, while treating every colleague with grace. We are demanding of the work and generous with each other.
Who thrives here
For leaders who run toward hard problems.
We want the best and the brightest leaders and experts: people who see the world as it can be, not as it is, and who want to take on opportunities that are hard to achieve but rewarding and satisfying to be part of.
