The Role
We're looking for a passionate data explorer who loves finding stories hidden in blockchain data and sharing them with the world—someone who:
- Enjoys diving into Dune Analytics, Flipside, or raw RPC data to satisfy their curiosity
- Regularly shares interesting discoveries from crypto data through writing or social media
- Can go from raw data to published insight in hours, not weeks
We need someone who treats data exploration as an adventure—not every investigation will yield results, but when you do find something meaningful, it can reshape how people understand crypto.
What You'll Do Day-to-Day
- Explore and publish: Dig through on-chain data, developer activity, and protocol metrics to uncover hidden insights; transform your discoveries into Twitter threads, blog posts, and data visualizations
- Build dashboard sites to drive the narrative: Following our successful launches of developerreport.com, nftpulse.org, and stablepulse.org, you'll identify emerging crypto narratives and collaborate with our team to build dedicated sites that become go-to resources for the community
- Engage with the community: Build your personal brand as a data-driven thought leader, engaging with builders, investors, and enthusiasts who rely on your analysis to understand the crypto landscape
Why This Role is Different
- Your explorations drive what we build, not the other way around
- Your work regularly reaches 100K+ crypto enthusiasts, builders, and operators
- This is a content creation role focused on public storytelling, not an investment analysis position
Requirements
- 2+ years creating data-driven content or analysis
- Strong SQL skills and comfort with complex datasets
- Python proficiency (Pandas, Jupyter, etc.) for analysis and automation
- Excellent storytelling abilities—you turn complexity into clear, compelling insights
- Self-directed and able to thrive in an independent, fast-moving environment
We'd be even more excited if you:
- Have hands-on experience with on-chain data (DeFi, NFTs, staking, infrastructure)
- Build Dune dashboards or use similar blockchain analytics tools
- Already publish crypto analysis online (Twitter, Mirror, Substack, anywhere)
- Are a pro at using AI tools (GPT-4, Claude, Cursor, etc.) to accelerate your work
- Bring a background in content creation, journalism, or technical writing
Send us your best crypto data story along with your resume.

Our values
We hire teammates whose integrity and demand for excellence match our culture and values:
- Founders come first. We come second: Investors lose when they develop an ego or a sense of entitlement. Founders lose when they stop believing in themselves or their companies. Everything we do is in service of supporting the founders who are building iconic companies.
- Be honest: With yourself and with others. Stay honest when it is hardest to be honest; that is when it matters most.
- Have conviction: Work only with people we are willing to fight for and fight for them.
- Demand excellence: Demand excellence from yourself, your colleagues, and founders. Work only with exceptional people and give them tremendous trust. Be unabashedly ambitious.
- Think in decades. Act in seconds: As a venture firm we are investing for the very long term, but we move with the speed and urgency of the startups we partner with.
