Web3 Head of Content

Paradigm is a San Francisco-based investment firm focused on crypto and blockchain-related technologies across the globe.  We make investments in companies and protocols at all stages, ranging from early-stage venture financing rounds to growth equity to liquid token assets.  Paradigm was co-founded in 2018 by Matt Huang (former Partner at Sequoia Capital) and Fred Ehrsam (Co-founder of Coinbase), and since then we’ve been hard at work building a world-class team to support our portfolio and the crypto ecosystem globally, with the broader goal of accelerating crypto’s ability to improve people’s lives worldwide.

At Paradigm, we believe that crypto will redefine money, finance, and the internet itself. This technological revolution will have a fundamental and long-lasting impact on the global economy.

As the premier VC firm in the crypto ecosystem, we’re at the center of a technological and media environment that’s changing extremely rapidly.  Given that, it’s critical that we make good decisions regarding the public perception of our firm and our investments.  The crypto-native community of entrepreneurs (and future entrepreneurs) will be the lifeblood of our long-term success, and we’re looking for someone to help shape those relationships.
