Sandeep Bhadra
Sandeep Bhadra is a General Partner at Vertex Ventures US, a $150M early-stage fund focused on B2B software, cloud infrastructure, and developer tools. A Ph.D. engineer turned venture capitalist, he joined Vertex in 2017 as a founding team member after stints at Menlo Ventures and Cisco's corporate development. He's known for concentrated, high-conviction bets - typically 1-2 new investments per year - in companies like Hasura, Docker, Tulip Interfaces, and Gitpod. His background spans semiconductor engineering at Texas Instruments, $425M in cloud M&A at Cisco, and founding-team work that contributed to the creation of Barefoot Networks (later acquired by Intel). He grew up in India, where watching mobile telephony disrupt landline bureaucracy first showed him how software could leapfrog legacy systems.
