About Amplify Capital
Amplify Capital is a leading seed-stage fund backing technologies that improve global health, education, and the climate. We back founders turning hard science into real-world progress and have written early cheques into pioneers like Hydrostor, Planetary, Future Fields, ThinkLabs, Pathway, Valence, and Carbon Upcycling - companies now impacting millions of lives and proving that deep impact can drive returns.
We're growing: We're now investing out of Fund III, a $75M fund writing $1-3 million lead, co-lead, or follow-on cheques across North America. We believe Canada’s 0.5 % of global population punches far above its weight in quantum, fusion, carbon capture, health innovation, and the future of work - so long as someone shows up early with conviction. That’s our focus. If you’re excited to channel capital, operator know-how, and a world-class network into companies that actually matter, read on.
Why This Role Exists
Canadian and US founders are poised to build breakout companies in climate tech, healthcare, and education - but most lack a dedicated institutional Seed partner on the ground. You will be our first full-time senior investor in Western Canada, turning local deal-flow into fund-defining wins and helping to grow and manage Amplify’s pipeline as we expand.
