Queue the Job
Investing in Inngest was my first opportunity at PWV, and it highlighted how far developer experience for jobs and queues has come—from brittle Sidekiq runners and missing JAMstack features to elegant, one-line functions. Just as Inngest orchestrates async tasks, venture capital orchestrates deal flow: success depends on queuing the right work, trusting the system, and watching it complete.
