About Us:

Axiom is using zero knowledge proofs to scale smart contract applications. Our team is building the first trustless solution for developers to access and run compute over all on-chain data. The product unlocks the ability to provide unlimited data and compute to smart contracts. This is critical infrastructure to help blockchain applications scale and will empower developers to build novel decentralized applications with the power of ZK.

We are a small but incredibly strong team backed by the best investors in crypto. We’re looking for exceptional people who are excited to work on challenging and impactful problems in a fast-paced environment. We have an office in NYC and have a preference for candidates based there but we are open to remote candidates too.

The Role

We are looking for a Developer Advocate to join a startup using zero-knowledge proofs to scale smart contract applications. You will be responsible for driving developer adoption of Axiom. Your role will involve writing developer documentation and producing technical content in the form of blogs, videos, and tutorials. You will also plan workshops, events, and hackathons for developers and represent Axiom externally at conferences and meetups. You work will require creating new initiatives to engage developers both online and offline and building a developer community around Axiom.

We are looking for someone with strong empathy for smart contract developers, the ability to explain complex technical concepts to a broad audience, and strong written communication skills. We also value creativity and operational excellence in executing new initiatives and taste in spotting emerging new application areas for Axiom across crypto. This role is remote-friendly and will require frequent travel to conferences and events.

Who you are:

You have experience with developer tools for smart contract application developers (Hardhat, Foundry, wagmi, ethers).

You have used Solidity and Javascript.

You have strong written and verbal communication skills.

You are detail oriented and operationally excellent.

Bonuses:

You have experience in smart contract application development.

You have experience in developer documentation or technical community management.

Why work with us:

As one of the earliest employees, you'll have ownership to make key go-to-market decisions and drive creative initiatives.

You’ll be pushing market adoption for groundbreaking technology with the potential to be a key piece of crypto infrastructure.

You’ll receive a competitive salary with equity.

You will work with and receive mentorship from an exceptional team.
