M&A

$200K – $300K • Offers Equity
Sequence acquires established businesses in the service economy and refounds them as market leaders. Refounding means rebuilding a business around what is now possible with AI, combining its existing strengths with new ways of operating.
We bring capital, engineering and operational expertise, working alongside each company’s leaders and employees. At the center is Atlas, our shared technology platform. What we build and learn in one business strengthens Atlas for the next.
Based in New York City, Sequence is backed by 8VC, Conviction, Lux Capital and other strategic partners.
What You Will Do:You will find, evaluate, and close acquisitions for Sequence Holdings - and then help build the businesses you acquire. This is not a traditional investing role. We are a permanent holding company, which means every deal you work on is one you will live with. There is no exit timeline, no portfolio rotation. The quality of your judgment compounds.
You will own the full investment lifecycle: sourcing proprietary opportunities, building relationships with founders and owners, underwriting businesses, leading diligence, and driving transactions to close. But the work doesn’t stop at signing. You will stay close to the businesses post-acquisition — shaping operating models, working alongside management, and helping define how Sequence’s technology platform transforms each company from the inside.
We are reimagining how M&A gets done. There are no layers between you and the work. No VP reviewing your model before a partner sees it, no analysts drafting your memos. You run your own processes, build your own relationships, and make recommendations directly to the people who make decisions. The structure is flat because the work demands it.
As Sequence grows, this role scales with it. You will develop deep expertise in the sectors we target, build a network of owners, bankers, and operators, and help shape the M&A strategy that defines what Sequence becomes.
