Founders Table: Engineering Dinner

​Traditional interview processes are full of standardized tropes… and often limit opportunities to gather insights that help candidates and hiring managers make informed decisions.

​We're trying something different to foster meaningful discovery and conversation between hiring companies and job seekers.

​Founders Table is a talent dinner series hosted by Initialized Capital. These carefully curated talent dinners center depth of conversation and high-ROI connections with technical founders who are actively hiring.

​If you're excited about building at the frontier of software — whether that's AI infrastructure, generative AI, ag-tech, or biotech— and want to go deep with the founders behind some of the most promising early-stage companies in SF, we've got a seat for you.

​This Founders Table dinner brings together our SF-based early-stage startups with some of the best engineering talent in the Bay Area.

​We're hosting this dinner in partnership with Jack & Jill, they're building AI Agents for both people working, and hiring, at fast-growth startups.
