Remote Jobs at DoubleZero

DoubleZero is looking for a highly talented Executive Assistant to join our team as we support the launch of the DoubleZero protocol.

KEY AREAS OF RESPONSIBILITY 

• Be the founder’s right hand. Act as a world-class executive assistant to DoubleZero’s co-founder, Austin Federa. Work closely with him to organize calendars (including personal matters), prioritize correspondence, and manage relationships with key external stakeholders. Doing so will require an ultra-high degree of trust.

• Know when to push. Ensure that our leadership is spending time on the most important things by pushing back on lower priorities. Develop a strong working knowledge of DoubleZero’s network and business to act as an informed operator in the organization.

• Fill gaps as they arise. Operate as a generalist and be the owner on key projects or initiatives - for instance, hiring a vital role, managing internal tools and processes, helping to set people-related policies and practices, etc.

• Be intellectually curious. In order to understand DoubleZero’s complex network, you need passion and intellectual drive. You’ll ask probing questions to learn about how DoubleZero helps the biggest problems facing blockchains and other distributed systems.

• Internal events. Assist with organizing internal events such as team offsites, including travel booking and other logistics.

• External events and PR. Assist with organizing attendance at external events and conferences; work with DoubleZero’s marketing team to coordinate PR activities, including executive interviews, press releases, and more. 

QUALIFICATIONS 

• 4+ years of total EA or operations experience.

• 1+ years of crypto experience preferred but not required.

• Ability to deal with ambiguity; can bring structure and focus to complex questions.

• Ability to prioritize appropriately and meet deadlines in high-pressure environments.

• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and presentation skills.

• Willingness to travel several times per year.

PERSONAL ATTRIBUTES 

• A crypto or decentralized system enthusiast - you understand the potential of the technology for solving some of the world's most vexing problems.

• You are a great communicator with excellent written and verbal communication skills and attention to detail.

• An independent problem-solver - you can understand what’s most important quickly and proactively build solutions.

• A scrappy team player with a high degree of ownership – you thrive in early-stage environments with lots of moving parts, priorities, roles, and responsibilities.

ABOUT DOUBLEZERO

DoubleZero is a decentralized, permissionless protocol that revolutionizes network performance for distributed systems like blockchain. The mission is simple: increase bandwidth and reduce latency.

DoubleZero increases bandwidth by filtering junk data that currently plagues validators and other network operators. DoubleZero reduces latency by connecting these filters with underutilized private fiber links in the form of a mesh network. By combining these improvements and routing the right data through optimized, low-latency paths, the DoubleZero protocol empowers blockchains and other systems to reach performance levels that are currently impossible.

In short, DoubleZero is a new Internet for distributed systems. It is supported by two organizations: DoubleZero Foundation, which drives the adoption, decentralization, security, and advancement of the protocol; and Malbec Labs, which develops the technical components of the protocol itself. We look forward to hearing from you.
