Pear VC

50 live roles

A team of scientists, ex-founders, AI and structural engineers, and product builders from Pear and YC companies. Backed by LDV Capital, Pear VC, Foothill Ventures, and strategics. We've designed buildings, contributed to national building codes, and built products people love. Co-founders Omar Issa and Francisco Galvis are structural engineering PhDs out of Stanford's Blume Earthquake Engineering Center — the birthplace of modern catastrophe modeling. Omar is a second-generation structural engineer who deployed on post-disaster response at Ridgecrest and served on NIST and USGS code committees; previously Arup and KATERRA. Francisco is a third-generation engineer who survived the 1999 Armenia, Colombia earthquake, ran post-earthquake inspections in Turkey and after Hurricane Ian, and led San Francisco's non-ductile concrete ordinance work; previously Thornton Tomasetti.
