Founding Engineer - Fullstack

We need people who can help us build our main web app that all our users interact with.

Examples of stuff you might be working on:

• Build on top of our “learner” product that's 1000s of people today are already using to jump into web3. We’d love to add more multiplayer features — like being able to see other people working on the same project at the same time or being able to connect with other learners who may want to partner up and learn together.
• Create our “web3 board” where companies that use us today (like OpenSea or Uniswap) can post jobs/contract work and then easily have people from the buildspace network easily apply — web3 needs a way for people to easily find work.
• Build our in-app messaging system companies can use to communicate with members of the buildspace network — this would feel sort of like LinkedIn, but focused on web3.
• We already have 1000s of profiles on buildspace and want to build out our “search the network” feature where users can browse and search through other people’s profiles to make new connections in web3 — sorta like AngeList but with more cryptonative signals (ex. when user made a transaction on mainnet last, a user’s NFT collection, a user’s web3 project, etc).

Our stack is pretty straightforward: React, AWS Lambda, and DynamoDB. Massive bonus if you know Dynamo.

🛠 What we’re building.

Hey! We’re buildspace — we’re building the world’s largest network of web3 builders. Today, devs can join our network, build their own web3 projects, earn NFTs, and get access to work opportunities in crypto. As users build more, our treasury grows in value since protocols pay us directly for spreading the word about their chain. As users are hired, our treasury also grows in value since companies pay a recruitment fee when they hire from buildspace. Users are able to govern this treasury and deploy the capital to do things like: invest in projects/companies users are creating, fund irl events, pay others to continue creating more educational web3 content, and anything else proposed and voted on.

🚜 Traction

We started working on buildspace 5-months ago and have grown to over 35,000 devs. We’re partnered with the world’s top protocols like the Ethereum Foundation, Solana, Avalanche, and Polygon. We’ve also partnered w/ the world’s top web3 companies who hire from within buildspace like Alchemy, Uniswap, ThirdWeb, OpenSea, and 40 others.

🌎 Location

We’re a remote company that meets up irl multiple times a year to hack/work together. If you’re good at what you do and want to join us, then we don’t really care where you’re based. We’ll make it work. We do have a preference for people in the US since we usually meet up within the US, so traveling is easier. But, not required.

😈 The type of people we’re looking for

We want builders. Ex-founders, people who have worked at startups in the past, people who have built + shipped their own personal projects/products to real users, and really anyone that’s made an honest effort to do cool shit in the real world. We don’t care about FANNG experience, degrees, your age, or what college you attended. But, we do care deeply about your history building products that shipped to actual users.
