About Nectar Social
We\'re living through a fundamental shift in how people discover, evaluate, and purchase products. The next generation doesn\'t respond to traditional marketing—they build relationships with brands through authentic social interactions, seek recommendations from communities they trust, and expect personalized experiences that feel human, not corporate. At Nectar Social, we\'re building the AI-native social operating system that enables this new era of commerce. We believe every social interaction should deepen the relationship between brands and their communities while creating genuine value for both sides. Founded by ex-Meta product and engineering leaders, we\'ve recently raised $10.6M in funding co-led by GV (Google Ventures) and True Ventures. We\'re building the future of social commerce—where community, conversation, and commerce converge. The Role
