How Best to Highlight VC Experience for VC/PE/IB Roles?

What accomplishments would VC/PE/IB recruiters value most? I've done lots at my current firm, I simply dont know what to highlight

Here are some highlights Im thinking about including right now:

Identified over X potential investment opportunities, resulting in X successful portfolio additions, and $X committed capital.

Created and implemented an application to automate competitive research, reducing manual analysis time by >4 hours weekly for analysts.

Engineered and integrated advanced features into the firm’s deal flow management system, significantly enhancing the ability to efficiently track and prioritize potential investments.

Played a pivotal role in securing $XM during the firm’s latest fundraising round by co-designing the Limited Partner pitch deck and presenting it to limited partners.

What other accomplishments/areas should I highlight? I've done a lot more at this firm than just this stuff.
