Need help in evaluating offer I just received from a late stage, NYC-based startup. Position is VP, Head of Information Security and is fully remote. They’re offering $290K base with $750k worth of equity to vest over 4 years ($187k annually). Never really looked at equity compensation in detail but they’re modeling their own valuation off a similar acquisition ($3.3B). Is this in line with NY market? What other questions should I ask when I speak to the recruiter next week regarding this

This sounds a decent comp, you may want to evaluate the viability of its stock offering I.e. Will it be worth what they expect it to be? Look into similar product/service offerings in that industry.
