Apply by API
If you can code (or have a friend who can), hit our API to apply. Extra credit if this is new for you. Submit a POST request to our careers endpoint with a raw JSON request body.
Please include your basic information and a 3 sentence note on an investing idea you find compelling and why. If it’s private, note how you’d access it.
If you want to include a write-up (2 pages max), have some fun with it. Go deeper than the company’s investment presentations and the latest sellside coverage. We'll be interested in your take on both the product and the capital flows impacting the equity. Goes without saying, but no inside information on public companies.
We’re looking for creativity and enthusiasm, not a checklist of skills on a resume.
And lastly, if you can't code or find someone who can, no worries – just email us at careers@lampacapital.com. (Also, if you don't get an email notification from our API, drop us a note.)

Who we are looking for
Investors
We're always looking for great investors who think creatively about companies’ products, teams, and investor bases.
STEM, Humanities, & Non-Traditional backgrounds are all warmly welcome to apply. We're also open to interns.
Engineers
The median number of software engineers at a typical fundamental investment fund is 0.
There are a lot of reasons why this is the case, and we think we've solved them. We also aim to be the most fun and interesting place you've ever worked. Drop us a line if you're interested in the investing world.
Ops & IR
Ops & IR are a seriously underrated part of every successful fund's story. They make the team jell. And in a world where LPs are available across the globe and potential talent can come from anywhere, Ops & IR are more important than ever.
If you're looking for a place where you can contribute and grow over the long term, reach out.
