About
David Hirsch is a venture capital investor at Compound who built his career as one of Google's earliest non-engineering hires, helping scale Google New York from a Starbucks location and leading commercialization teams there. He brings an unusually hands-on, operator-style approach to venture investing, focusing specifically on portfolio support and go-to-market strategy rather than just deal-sourcing, and has built his personal brand around being a day-to-day commercialization partner who asks founders "How can I help you?" in practical revenue and customer targeting discussions.
