Erik Nordlander​

I'm Erik, a General Partner at GV where we invest in startups solving complex technical problems. I have backed leaders like Cockroach, Warp, and CTRL-Labs. I also have the privilege of leading GV operations in New York and the wider firm’s technical team.

Before VC I was an engineer at Google for years, working on Search, Gmail, and other systems. I got pulled into venture after helping Google's corporate development team evaluate acquisitions, got curious about the early chapters of company-building, and made the leap to GV at the end of 2010.

Ask me about: how I evaluate startups, what GV brings beyond capital, or AI and building.
