About SourceIQ
SourceIQ is building the AI-powered infrastructure layer for enterprise procurement and supplier intelligence.

We are creating a multi-tenant SaaS platform that helps enterprises discover, evaluate, onboard, manage, and engage suppliers through AI-driven workflows, compliance automation, sourcing intelligence, and supplier analytics.

Our long-term vision is to become the system of record for supplier intelligence and procurement operations — consolidating a fragmented market through a unified intelligence and workflow platform.

Today, procurement teams operate across disconnected spreadsheets, portals, ERPs, supplier databases, sourcing tools, and compliance systems.

SourceIQ is building the centralized operating layer that connects all of it.

Where We Are Today

We are beyond the “idea stage.”

SourceIQ has already built significant platform infrastructure across:

• AI-powered supplier search and matching
• Multi-tenant enterprise architecture
• RBAC and enterprise-grade access control
• Supplier onboarding and workflow systems
• Spend analytics and supplier management
• Databricks + vector search infrastructure
• Azure-native cloud architecture
• Compliance and auditability foundations
• RFP matching and supplier intelligence systems

We have:

• Active enterprise GTM discussions underway
• A documented enterprise pilot strategy
• A growing technical and AI infrastructure foundation
• Institutional-grade product architecture
• Enterprise-focused security and governance models
• A developing network of strategic relationships across procurement and supply chain

The company is currently positioning for:

• Enterprise pilot expansion
• Strategic partnerships
• Institutional fundraising
• Long-term category leadership in supplier intelligence and procurement infrastructure

The Opportunity

We are looking for a highly connected operator, investor, procurement executive, supply chain leader, venture partner, or strategic advisor who can help us:

1. Lead and administer a rolling fund structure for SourceIQ
2. Activate investor and LP relationships
3. Introduce strategic procurement and enterprise relationships
4. Support fundraising operations and investor communications
5. Help position SourceIQ for its next stage of enterprise growth

This is not a traditional “fundraising consultant” role.

We are specifically looking for someone who understands:

• Enterprise SaaS
• Procurement and supply chain ecosystems
• Venture fundraising dynamics
• Operator-led growth
• Relationship-driven capital formation
• Strategic positioning for institutional investors

The ideal person is both:

• Commercially strategic
• Operationally execution-oriented

Someone who can help build the machine — not just make introductions.

About the Rolling Fund Initiative

SourceIQ is currently structuring a rolling fund initiative designed to:

• Accelerate GTM execution
• Create proof-of-momentum for institutional investors

• Activate procurement and supply chain investor networks
• Support enterprise pilot execution and expansion

The framework targets:

• $1.5M rolling fund structure
• Supply chain and procurement-aligned LPs
• Strategic operators and industry insiders
• Enterprise-focused capital partners

The initiative is designed as a momentum and relationship vehicle ahead of a larger institutional raise.

We are looking for someone capable of helping:

• Structure and administer LP workflows
• Coordinate fundraising operations
• Manage investor communication cadences
• Help build and maintain the investor pipeline
• Activate strategic procurement and supply chain relationships
• Support fund operations and fundraising execution
