Jerry Stesel is a founding partner at OIF Ventures who helped build the firm from its original roots into a leading Australian early-stage platform, serving as one of the core architects behind major exits including XM Cyber, Eftsure, Assignar, and Instaclustr's >$500m acquisition. He focuses on backing technically complex infrastructure-style software companies and positions himself as a long-term company-building partner who helps founders navigate complex global acquirers through multiple growth phases.

Notable Investments
OIF Ventures is led by founding partner David Shein, who built and sold Com Tech Communications for over A$1 billion, giving the firm direct experience creating a billion-dollar Australian tech business rather than just investing in one. The firm operates with a humility-driven approach where Shein positions himself as "the dumbest guy at the table," preferring to back founders by asking questions and learning from them rather than positioning itself as the smartest person in the room.
