TL;DR: Fast-growing early-stage startup seeking scrappy generalist to take on special projects at Goldsky. In doing so, we’ll build the most powerful onchain data platform. Details below!

About Goldsky

Blockchains will enable a new era of unique onchain experiences and applications.

However, today it’s impossible to build high-quality products due to the difficulties of processing onchain data effectively. This complexity is only increasing as more chains and smart contracts are deployed across the ecosystem. Teams are forced to build complex data infrastructure in-house, distracting them from focusing on their core product.

Goldsky bridges this gap by making it seamless for developers to power their applications with realtime onchain data. Our infrastructure powers hundreds of projects across the industry building rich, instant, data-driven experiences.

We’ve raised over $20M from Dragonfly Capital, Felicis Ventures, prominent players in the industry such as 0x Labs, Uniswap Labs, and Protocol Labs, and angel investors including Elad Gil, Plaid founders Zach Perret and William Hockey, and Zhuoxun Yin of Magic Eden.

We’d love for you to join us in our mission to unlock the full potential of on chain data.

Role Overview

Opportunity Multiplies. As we continue to grow and launch new products, more opportunities continue to pop up. We have lots of projects we want to see in the world, with many of them being very obvious business opportunities for us.

Our only constraint is finding an all-star to tackle them. That's where you come in.

We need a scrappy ambitious generalist who can take projects from 0-1.

They need to be able to both build (with code or no-code) and execute.

This is an incredibly exciting role, with lots of opportunities to learn, get your hands dirty, take on lots of responsibility from day 1, and bring something from a mere concept into a full-fledged business function.

The team is growing fast, so you'll get an inside seat at a company in rapid scaling mode.

If you love hacking and building you will love this role.

Responsibilities / What you'll do

• Work closely with Goldsky leadership to spearhead special projects – ranging from strategic initiatives, to new internal tooling, to mission critical business functions etc.

• Be a jack-of-all-trades for the projects you own: handle everything from strategy, project management, development (code/no-code), operations, communications, etc.

• You'll be a true generalist, doing whatever it takes to successfully go 0 to 1 on each project to get it off the ground.

• Work cross-functionally with the Goldsky team and relevant stakeholders to bring projects to life.

• Understand business levers to analyze and prioritize highest impact proposed projects, and prepare business cases.

• Work within no-code to set up automations, infrastructure, landing pages, etc.

• Analyze proposed projects, quantify impact as projected on business, and prepare business cases.

Requirements / Who you are

• Has strong experience building MVPs.

• Has ability to build products themselves (either with code/engineering, or no-code tools)

• Extremely versatile skillset – utility player who can work across a wide variety of project scopes.

• Comfortable in ambiguity, where you'll often need to write the playbook, rather than follow an existing one. Helpful if have experience taking projects from 0 to 1.

• High output, execution, and hustle – an ability to own all operations, and an eagerness to dive into the nitty-gritty

• Thrives in a fast-paced, often scrappy, sometimes chaotic environment

• Has a strong "spirit of service", where you think first how you can give, rather than take, and always seeking opportunities to support the team to the max of your ability

• Meticulously detail-oriented and organized – able to juggle many priorities while not dropping any balls

What might excite you about us:

• We’re tackling a big problem with even bigger potential. Goldsky customers like Polymarket and Dora say great things about us.

• You'll have a lot of flexibility in your role, and will be able to help define what our operations infrastructure looks like going forward.

• You’ll be able to work remotely and (mostly) set your own schedule. Goldsky is a remote-first team and we know what makes for a great remote environment.

• Goldsky is run by experienced founders and operators. We know how to win and this is not our first rodeo. Our team members have previously built mission-critical, scalable infrastructure at Meta, Google, Dune, Ox Labs, Shopify, Uber, Activision, and more.

Why you might not be excited about us:

• We're small (~25 people in the company now), so if you like more established companies, this role isn’t for you. You'll help create our company's culture.

• We're an early stage startup. Projects and priorities are likely to shift.

• Everyone on the team is extremely mission-driven, and works incredibly hard to push towards our lofty ambitions. Most people won’t be cut out for it.

• You should be comfortable with just a dash of chaos. This is not the kind of job where you show up and we tell you exactly what to do every day.

• Goldsky lives onchain. If that’s not your thing, this isn’t the place for you.

Benefits

• Competitive salary and equity in Goldsky.

• Fully paid health plans for U.S. based employees — this includes medical, dental, and vision coverage for you and your family at no cost to you.

• Unlimited vacation - Take time to recharge as you need it. We’re serious.

• Home office setup fund - Expense up to $2,000 for home office equipment (e.g. desk, chair)

• Company provided laptop - we’ll make sure you’ve got the hardware to keep up with you

• Regular self-care days - Every other Friday is a company holiday to decompress. We go hiking, learn to cook, or trade jpegs.

• Paid travel - We’ll cover any costs for work-related conferences and quarterly company offsites all around the globe.
