FirstMate Labs is hiring a

Web3 Founding Engineer

About us

FirstMate’s mission is to unlock the future of the NFT space by providing tools and platforms for NFT creators.

We believe that creators in the web3 space should be free to focus on what they do best: creating. We’ll take care of the rest.

FirstMate is led by an experienced founder team with experience ranging from taking multiple products from conception to launch and beyond at both acquired start ups, and Fortune 100 Companies, to building and managing multi billion dollar products at Instagram.

We’re focused on making bespoke NFT secondary marketplaces tailored to the unique needs of each project. In the last few months we'e launched over 20 of these by hand, raised a sizeable seed round from investors, including Dragonfly, Coinbase Ventures, and NextView, and have grown our inbound pipeline as we've picked up recognition along the way.

With those wins in our pocket, we're looking for someone to come in and help us scale and iterate on our core product.
