Private equity meets product mgmt
The Atom Group builds and invests in businesses through a product-led approach where tech is an enabler of growth and efficiency, creating value alongside the founders we back. We’ve built and scaled companies worth over $1B — and we’re excited to build what’s next together.
In a space where our peers prefer warm intros & fancy hotel lobbies …we rather Uber eats over a working session.
Traditional PE and VC firms spread risk across portfolios — we don’t invest from a distance, we build from the inside. Before cutting a check, we embed with founders to understand the business from numerous perspectives.
Our team of product leaders, exited founders, investors, and world-class designers / engineers work side by side to uncover opportunities, sharpen strategy, and build partnerships that create lasting value + capital.
Run a company with us
Our team has built billion-dollar businesses at some of the world’s top companies — now we’re looking for smart, hungry founders to lead new ventures.
Equity stake + meaningful upside
Access to capital and design, product, engineering teams
Proven operational playbook
We want builders who see opportunity where others don’t and have the grit and ownership to turn potential into performance.
Our mission
At The Atom Group, we believe true value is built in the trenches — through curiosity, grit, and collaboration. Our mission is to create meaningful businesses that serve others, empower the people behind them, and stand the test of time.
We build with intention, evolve with purpose, and measure success by the lasting impact we make together, not just contextless P&L statements and QBR’s.
Our operating model
The Atom Group invests from the earliest stages of venture through private equity, partnering with businesses ready to scale. If your business has unlocked product-market fit and generates $1–5M ARR, we’d love to connect.

Product = engine
At heart, we’re a product-led firm, we’re the builders for the builders. Every feature, every AI agent we deploy is designed to make teams faster, leaner, smarter. It’s how we compound value and turn small plays into meaningful returns.
Ship > perfect
We sweat the details but don’t worship them. Perfection slows momentum; and it compounds. Whether it’s a product feature or an operating model, we’d rather get something live, learn fast, and keep moving.
People over playbooks
Spreadsheets, frameworks, and dashboards should guide us but never in isolation. Real edge comes from the people we work with — our team and the operators we back. Shared intent out performs any datapoint.
Builders + owners
We don’t just underwrite deals — we build alongside them. We’re willing to get our hands dirty, whether it’s tightening operations or co-piloting, we approach every decision like the outcome actually lands on our own balance sheet.
Play the long game
We’re not chasing immediate vanity metrics or short-term flips. The real prize is building durable companies and systems. If it doesn’t hold up five years from now, it’s not worth chasing today.
