San Francisco, California, United States
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolTheodor Marcu is a product growth leader and former founder with 9 years of software and startup experience, currently heading Product Growth at Cognition and serving as a Scout for Sequoia Capital from San Francisco. He co-founded Superdrop (acquired 2024) and scaled heycami.com to 3.3M users, attracting backing from Lux, Box Group, and notable angels, proving his ability to grow consumer products to scale. His background blends hands-on engineering at Retool and Orbital Insight with product and technical founding experience, informed by a Computer Science degree from Princeton. He’s comfortable switching hats between shipping code, leading growth, and evaluating early-stage startups, which explains his dual operator/investor roles. Less obvious: he’s built open-source mapping tools used in civic projects (Representable) and has a consistent track record of turning technical prototypes into funded, high-engagement products.
