About Heliax
Heliax is a remote-first public goods lab which researches, develops, deploys, and maintains open-source protocols and mechanisms designed to serve the everyday needs of humanity. Using this, we build vertically integrated open-source products and networks that form coherent open systems which are capable of acting as an alternative to existing exploitative paradigms.
Heliax’s work includes Anoma, a novel architecture that is intent-centric for decentralized counterparty discovery, solving, information flow control, and multi-chain atomic settlement; Namada, a proof-of-stake L1 for interchain asset-agnostic privacy, designed to bring the best privacy to the multichain and with the vision of building a portal between public and private worlds.
Role overview
We are looking for a communications lead to join Heliax as soon as possible. You’ll be working directly with the co-founders and frequently collaborate with the rest of the team members across all functions, including community, research, and engineering teams.
You will support and contribute to content, from press coordination to social media, community platforms and everything in between. You will also manage and oversee programs, narratives, and campaigns to tell the story of Namada and privacy as a public good to the rest of the world.
The ideal candidate will be a hyper-motivated, creative, flexible, and detail-oriented storyteller, with clear focus on solving problems, bringing ideas to the table, and building relationships – and most importantly, who is maximally aligned with the vision and values of Namada, Anoma, and Heliax.
What you’ll do
- Create and execute key communication campaigns aiming to reach various target audiences, maximise brand awareness, further the reputation
- Craft compelling and differentiated communication materials, which include articles, social media posts (Twitter, Telegram, Reddit, newsletters, etc)
- Ensure that all the research, products, innovations, and ecosystem-wide updates are known to the world
- Collaborate with the community and community programs to amplify the contents
- Craft PR materials – position pieces, reactive statements, media pitches, etc. – to tell the story of the products and elevate co-founder’s POV
- Research, identify, and track new opportunities to elevate Namada’s story and co-founders
- Develop, prepare and execute thought leadership campaigns for Namada co-founders, counselling them to more effectively tell stories, manage crises, and model Namada’s vision and values through storytelling
- Manage all aspects of media and partner relations, including building and maintaining relationships with media of all kinds
- Coordination and communications for physical events
- Build and maintain relationships with partners and teams in the broader ecosystem and proactively seek for collaboration
- Help lead crisis response. You’ll also help refine our strategic response process
- Monitor media, social media, and community platforms, be the key point of contact for support and respond appropriately to inquiries and issues as they arise
- Represent Namada and Heliax as a spokesperson as needed
Your background
- Obviously, you're excellent at verbal and written communication skills and love doing it. Make sure to share your past work, including blog posts, tweets, posts in forums, etc.
- You’re super, super organised and have a lot of attention to detail. You’re a creative, strategic, self-starter who can synthesise complex information, problem solving, and project management – basically you can make big contributions without requiring constant management and guidance
- A good baseline in understanding of protocols, technology and crypto – otherwise you’re able to get yourself up-to-speed very quickly with the latest, no matter how technical the topics are
- A knowledge of and interest in video creation and editing, as well as any other formats of content
- Telling stories feels natural to you: you’re inspired by what you read about and observe, have intuition about what will “work,” and can synthesise multiple inputs to bring strong storylines to life with minimal oversight
- You’re empathetic, can work with many different types of people and you’re highly patient, humble, and receptive in taking feedback
- You love working with other humans, deeply collaborative, and look for opportunities to have a greater impact through cross-functional, integrated communications
- You have past experience navigating complex issues / crises, and the ability to see around corners and anticipate questions
- You’re personally aligned with the vision and values of Namada and believe that privacy is a fundamental human right
Misc.
Remote, but you can join the team at our current offices in London, or Berlin.
When remote, preferred if mostly located within (+/- 3 hours) Central European time zones.
Ideally someone who enjoys travel, nature and hiking. Often we find that protocols are best designed not in a meeting room but rather on a trail 🏔️.
What is Zero-knowledge?
Zero-knowledge is a concept in cryptography that allows two parties to exchange information without revealing any additional information beyond what is necessary to prove a particular fact
In other words, zero-knowledge is a way of proving something without actually revealing any details about the proof
Here are some examples of zero-knowledge:
- Password authentication: When you enter your password to log into an online account, the server doesn't actually know your password. Instead, it checks to see if the hash of your password matches the stored hash in its database. This is a form of zero-knowledge because the server doesn't know your actual password, just the hash that proves you know the correct password.
- Sudoku puzzles: Suppose you want to prove to someone that you've solved a particularly difficult Sudoku puzzle. You could do this by providing them with the completed puzzle, but that would reveal how you solved it. Instead, you could use a zero-knowledge proof where you demonstrate that you know the solution without actually revealing the solution itself.
- Bitcoin transactions: In a Bitcoin transaction, you prove that you have ownership of a certain amount of Bitcoin without revealing your private key. This is done using a zero-knowledge proof called a Schnorr signature, which allows you to prove ownership of a specific transaction output without revealing the private key associated with that output.
- Secure messaging: In a secure messaging app, you can prove to your contacts that you have access to a shared secret without revealing the secret itself. This is done using a zero-knowledge proof, which allows you to prove that you have access to the secret without actually revealing what the secret is.
