Sherlock's Culture

Sherlock's culture is fast-moving, intense, and not right for everyone. Here are some common attributes among historically successful team members at Sherlock:

Mission-focus
Anyone in this for reasons other than creating the best human coordination mechanism in history will either get too demotivated to last through multi-year bear markets or get too distracted during the frothy bull markets.

Willingness to work long, hard and smart
If Sherlock has any advantage, it is the willingness to work harder and think with more discipline than anyone else. This includes thinking from first principles about all important decisions and always thinking in tradeoffs and bets. 

Owner mentality
Team members get ownership in Sherlock after a short time in this role, and each is expected to act like an owner of a Michelin-star restaurant where no detail is too small.

Builder mentality
Everyone at Sherlock is deep in the arena getting their hands dirty and this is a vulnerable position. There are no pure "idea people" or managers at Sherlock; everyone is in execution mode first and foremost.

Customer focus
The default assumption should be that the customer is always right and if the customer makes a mistake, it is Sherlock's fault for not making the rules, UI or UX, etc. clear enough. It is too easy to sit behind a computer and build in an echo chamber. We must go out of our way to experience the customer's viewpoint as often as possible.

Professional athlete mentality
Professional athletes opt in to a high-performance, meritocratic culture. This creates an environment that brings out the best in people and rewards each for their respective performance. But it's also an environment where being in the 70th percentile in your role means you will have a short tenure on the team. 

Comfort with directness and transparency
You must be comfortable giving direct feedback to others and receiving direct feedback yourself. "Not ruffling feathers" comes at the expense of moving in a suboptimal direction for too long. Sherlock is extremely transparent internally (and with customers) which means you can get involved in decisions made in any part of Sherlock. 

The Role

Your role is simple:

Find high-quality existing and up-and-coming protocol teams in crypto and convey the superiority of Sherlock audits to them.

Of course, in practice this role involves a lot of skills. 

A strong understanding of DeFi and smart contract security is a plus, but it's not needed to get started in this role. 

You'll need to be very skilled at both speaking and writing: Sherlock makes important decisions and weighs tradeoffs exclusively in written communication, and many protocol teams want to see a face and hear a voice before choosing an auditor.

You'll need to find ways to get connected to decision-makers at high-quality teams in crypto, build relationships with them, and share the benefits of Sherlock with them. 

With that in mind, the day-to-day responsibilities of this role include:

- Building relationships with decision-makers on these teams and sharing the benefits of Sherlock with them (10x weight)

- Sourcing and getting in touch with protocol teams (5x weight)

- Being extremely hungry/driven and ready to wear a different hat on any given day to help Sherlock succeed (5x weight)

- Sourcing relationships with ecosystem teams and other parties to make sure Sherlock is a preferred partner for their ecosystem/collective (2x weight)

- Helping out with marketing/events/social media campaigns where relevant in order to get more inbound/attention for Sherlock (1x weight)

- Working to onboard protocol teams to Sherlock bug bounty and smart contract coverage once the audit phase is complete (1x weight)
