We're a remote-first company looking to hire the absolute best talent all over the world.

Ready to #LiveCrypto? Who you are: You've got positive energy. You're optimistic about the future and determined to get there. You're never tired of learning. You want to be a pro in bleeding edge tech like DeFi, NFTs, DAOs, and Web 3.0. You appreciate direct communication. You're both an active communicator and an eager listener - because let's face it, you can't have one without the other. You're cool with candid feedback and see every setback as an opportunity to grow. You can pivot on the fly. Crypto is constantly evolving, so our priorities do, too. What you worked on last month may not be what you work on today, and that excites you. You're not looking for a boring job. You have a "can do" attitude. Our teams create high-quality work on quick timelines. Owning a problem doesn't scare you, but rather empowers you to take 100% responsibility for achieving our mission. You want to be part of a winning team. We're stronger together, and you're a person who embraces being pushed out of your comfort zone.
