Web3 Research Writer

Monad is creating the foundation for a new world of powerful decentralized applications. We're doing this by building a new ultra high-performance blockchain supporting 10,000 TPS, and by supporting a growing ecosystem of app developers leveraging the high throughput and interactivity of this new platform.

Our mission is to enable a new universe of apps—use cases and user flows that are currently impossible—that take advantage of this efficient, interconnected environment, ultimately unleashing the power of decentralization to make the world more efficient and fair.

About Monad

Monad Labs is an early-stage venture-backed crypto startup founded by HFT engineers from Jump Trading. We are working on the most impactful problem in crypto: building a high-performance blockchain to address severe bottlenecks in existing systems.

The Monad blockchain offers the best of both worlds for dapp developers: performance and portability. Our key differentiator is the combination of extremely high performance while continuing to support the Ethereum Virtual Machine, the existing standard in which most existing apps and libraries are implemented. To do this, our team solves challenging problems in distributed systems and low-level optimization.

The Role

After strict focus on developing our core infra and technology, Monad blockchain is quickly approaching its Testnet v0 release. Ahead of that launch, we are excited to welcome our first growth hires to lead our community engagement efforts.

As Research Writer, you will become the voice of Monad Labs and an evangelist for the Monad blockchain. Your work will educate many users and developers, and will help Monad's community grow rapidly.

This role is on the critical path of Monad's growth.
