Background

About Shaun Goh

I invest in B2B software and core infrastructure across developer tools, AI workflows, and cybersecurity that make developers faster, products smarter, and organizations more secure, at Peak XV (formerly Sequoia), a $9B+ venture firm. I spend most of my time with founders who work on solving hard technical problems that compound over time to quietly become the backbone of industries. Before venture, I spent nearly a decade in strategic development and investment banking at Sequoia, Goldman Sachs, and Credit Suisse, working with founders at category-defining companies to raise capital, execute acquisitions, and go public, from Zomato’s $510M market dribble to TDCX’s $2.6B NYSE listing. Those years shaped my views on how defensibility, distribution leverage, and capital efficiency interplay with market structure over time — lessons I apply with founders we partner with. I occasionally write about AI infra, DevTools, and venture craft, translating technical and market shifts into frameworks that help founders and investors navigate what’s next.
