Kindred Partners

Kindred was founded and designed to help entrepreneurs succeed. We were the first team to specialize in recruiting executive talent to the venture-backed technology sector, and we deeply understand the unique challenges of building teams in early and growth stage companies. We care passionately about the long-term success of our portfolio, and will go to extraordinary lengths to help our companies succeed. Our search process, our commitment to diversity, our collaborative team structure, our internal limits on bandwidth and our portfolio selectivity are designed so that we can partner with founders, CEOs, and BODs to build great companies. Industry leading companies are built around strong executives, but the need for talent isn’t limited to the C-suite. The ability to identify, attract and close talent below the C-suite is one of the biggest challenges that hyper-growth companies face. Kindred Scale helps our portfolio companies solve that problem by specializing in team build-outs across sales, customer success and operations. We are proud to have helped build industry leading companies like Amazon, Anaplan, Asana, Auris Surgical, Bill.com, Coupa, Facebook, Gainsight, GitLab, Gusto, HashiCorp, Looker Data, MuleSoft, Proofpoint, Ripple, Samsara, SiSense, TeamSnap, The Real Real, Quizlet and many others.
