The nerds are having their revenge!
Last week, Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, 33, popped the question to tennis phenom Serena Williams after dating for a little over a year — and the pair even announced their engagement on the Reddit subthread ISaidYes. Meanwhile, the Snapchat co-founder and CEO got engaged to Orlando Bloom’s supermodel ex Miranda Kerr over the summer.
Want to bag your very own NYC tech hunk? We’ve got you covered. Here are four of the Big Apple’s most eligible bachelors.
David Gilboa
Age: 36
Resides: West Village
Claim to fame: Co-founder of eyeglass company Warby Parker
Tech titan: Warby Parker is valued at more than $1.2 billion.
Relationship status: He’s been linked to INSIDER Senior Correspondent Aly Weisman.
Halloween hunk: Gilboa is a trouper when it comes to dressing up. After tearing his ACL and meniscus in October, he still rallied for the company’s Halloween bash and dressed up as Mr. Peanut, complete with a functional and costume-appropriate post-surgery cane.
Rob Fishman
Age: 30
Resides: Soho
Claim to fame: Co-founded Niche, which connects advertisers with social media stars. Fishman sold the company to Twitter in 2015. In November, he left Twitter and tells The Post he’s launching a new company this year.
Tech titan: Niche was rumored to be sold for a cool $30 to $50 million.
Relationship status: Single.
What he’s looking for in a woman: “Ideally she’s seen ‘Hamilton’ no more than three times,” Fishman says.
Tech turnoff: “Slow — or, worse, slow-witted — over text.”
Favorite app: “Slack!”
Bryan Goldberg
Age: 33
Resides: Chelsea
Claim to fame: Launched the sports site Bleacher Report in 2007 in San Francisco with a $1 million investment. In 2013 he moved to NYC, where he launched Bustle, a site aimed at millennial women.
Tech titan: He sold Bleacher Report to Turner Broadcasting for a rumored $200 million in 2012. According to sources, Bustle is currently outperforming Bleacher Report at the time of its sale.
Relationship status: Single
Pad perks: His decked-out midcentury bachelor pad has been featured in Business Insider and comes complete with a whiskey bar and faux-fur pillows.
What he’s looking for in a woman: “I’m not terribly interested in what society dictates you should care about and do with your life,” says Goldberg, “and I hope she’s not either.”
Tech turnoff: “Long text messages in the middle of the day are a red flag,” he says. “Let’s just catch up over dinner.”
Favorite app: “I’m an Instagram fanatic. I cannot lie. The memes crack me up every time. They never get old.”
Navin Thukkaram
Age: 41
Resides: Divides his time among NYC, Stockholm and Park City, Utah.
Claim to fame: Superstar tech investor. While a partner at Vulcan Capital — the private equity firm started by Microsoft’s Paul Allen — his investments reportedly made the company $1.5 billion. He was the COO and an early investor in Qwiki, a mobile-video startup. Recently, he co-founded the non-tech Indie Fresh, a health-food delivery service based in Manhattan. He continues to act as an angel investor to various startups, and he sits on the board of the cloud-management company SkyKick.
Tech titan: Qwiki was reportedly sold for $50 million to Yahoo in 2013.
Relationship status: Single
Street cred: The Princeton and Harvard Business School grad serves as an adviser to the Chief of US Naval Operations.
Work of art: Thukkaram is an avid art collector, including works by Jacob Felländer, a Swedish photo artist also collected by the Clintons.
What he’s looking for in a woman: “Intelligence, ambition and passion,” says Thukkaram.
Favorite app: “Honestly, I love Uber. I use Uber all the time.”
Josh Harris
Age: 31
Resides: Lower East Side
Claim to fame: Works closely with the CEO of Palantir — the big data startup founded by Peter Thiel and credited with playing a role in the capture of Osama bin Laden. Harris oversees all business development and this year is the youngest person to be invited to the World Economic Forum in Davos.
Tech titan: Palantir was recently valued at $20 billion, and insiders say an IPO may not be too far in the future.
Relationship status: Single
What he’s looking for in a woman: “Someone who understands the importance of dark meat chicken over white meat chicken.”
Tech turnoff: “I don’t like read receipts,” Harris says. “I don’t understand why people have them. I’d rather not know. You get a [receipt] and no response.”
Favorite app: I Fly A380. “It’s a new service from Airbus that allows you to plan your itineraries across airlines so you fly only on A380s — my favorite, because it’s quieter and also just the all-around most epic plane.”
Dinner in Paris: Harris travels 75 percent of the month, so a dinner date at Cibus in the City of Light isn’t out of the question. “If you asked me my favorite date spot, it would be anywhere in Paris. It’s a perfect city.”
Josh Kushner
Age: 31
Resides: Nolita
Claim to fame: In 2009, he founded Thrive Capital, a private-equity and venture-capital firm focused on media and Internet investments (Kushner was the youngest investor in Instagram before its sale to Facebook). Next up, he co-founded Oscar Health, a health insurance startup, in 2012. Three years later, Kushner founded Cadre, which helps clients invest in real estate, with his brother, Jared Kushner, and pal Ryan Williams. They’ve raised more than $250 million.
Tech titan: As of last year, Oscar was valued at $2.7 billion. Thrive has raised more than $750 million to date. Plus, Kushner’s got some family money as a cushion — his father, real-estate developer Charles Kushner, is worth an estimated $500 million.
Relationship status: He’s been dating supermodel Karlie Kloss since 2012.
School cred: Kushner is a Harvard grad twice over. He attended the Ivy League for undergrad and then graduated from Harvard Business School in 2011.
Trump card: His brother, Jared Kushner, is married to Donald Trump’s daughter, Ivanka, and is one of the president-elect’s most valued confidants.
