What you'll get to work on:

We are seeking individuals with an interest in DAO research, community participation, and governance to join the crypto-economic team at ConsenSys. Our crypto-economic team engages closely in DAO governance, including generating proposals, fostering discussions, and voting with tokens held by ConsenSys or delegated to us. This role will coordinate these efforts for our organization, gain deep exposure to the crypto ecosystem, and understand best practices for DAO community participation and management.

Responsibilities:

  • Join the crypto-economic team within Codefi to be the key accountable lead behind how we participate in governance in DAOs where we are members.
  • Identify, prioritize, and share insights within the organization on key issues affecting DAOs which we can influence through governance. Work internally to gather input from individuals and teams on key governance issues. Distill multiple perspectives into a conclusive governance action.
  • Build a strategy that allows Consensys to add value to DAOs through governance, including developing a point-of-view on key issues and prioritizing proposals we want to make.
  • Gather sentiment on how proposals we may make will be seen by the DAO community.
  • Draft and guide proposals we have conviction in throughout the entire governance process, including formal off-chain and on-chain polling.
  • Shape ideas and proposals not originating from Consensys in a way that will add the most value to the DAO.
  • Participate in discussions related to proposals, whether made by us or others, using logic and persuasion to convince community members to vote in the direction we believe will add the most value to the DAO.
  • Formally vote in proposals, both on-chain and off-chain.
  • Ensure Consensys is available as a potential delegate for governance, where possible, and participate in the community to maximize individuals selecting Consensys as their delegate.
  • Collaborate with product managers to identify opportunities that will allow Consensys to more effectively and efficiently participate in governance.

Background:

  • Degree in economics, computer science, finance, law, or social sciences.
  • Strong ability to understand economic and technical consequences of DAO governance proposals.
  • Strong writing skills to describe complex systems and an informed opinion.
  • Compelling ability to tell stories that appeal across a broad range of audiences and persuade others to a point-of-view.
  • Demonstrated ability to attract followers on social media, participate in decentralized communities, or a positive reputation in Web3.
  • Demonstrated interest in blockchain, crypto, and decentralized economies.
  • Experience working cross functionally with marketing, sales, product, and research.
  • Commitment to promoting the ecosystem and the ConsenSys team.
  • Ability to work independently with senior stakeholders across the firm
