Arielle Zuckerberg is reportedly joining venture capital firm Kleiner Perkins

Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg’s younger sister, Arielle Zuckerberg, is to join Silicon Valley venture capital firm Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers (KPCB) on October 19, according to TechCrunch.

The VC is widely considered one of the best in the word, and the move to hire Zuckerberg as an associate partner seems to check a number of important boxes for the firm.

“Our source tells us that the 26-year-old — the youngest of the four Zuckerberg siblings — is being brought on as ‘personable’ partner to interface with and relate to early-stage startups for [KPCB’s] growth fund,” TechCrunch wrote.

Zuckerberg is currently a product manager at Humin, and previously held the same title at Google for more than two years (she landed there via its 2012 acquisition of Wildfire).

KPCB has been vocal of late about the industry’s lack of women, with managing partner John Doerr calling it “pathetic” in one interview. The firm recently won a gender discrimination lawsuit filed against it by former junior investing partner Ellen Pao.

Lawsuits aside, in June KPCB launched its new $4 million seed-stage Edge Fund, which is expected to focus on software.

Doerr also announced two new partners at TechCrunch Disrupt on Tuesday: Swati Mylavarapu (formerly in product marketing at Square) and Muzzammil Zaveri (formerly a strategic initiatives manager at Tencent).
