Machine intelligence will soon take over humanity鈥檚 role in knowledge-keeping and creation. What started in the mid-1990s as the gradual off-loading of knowledge and decision making to search engines will be rapidly replaced by vast neural networks - with all knowledge compressed into their artificial neurons. Unlike organic life, machine intelligence, built within silicon, needs protocols to coordinate and grow. And, like nature, these protocols should be open, permissionless, and neutral. Starting with compute hardware, the Gensyn protocol networks together the core resources required for machine intelligence to flourish alongside human intelligence.
The Role
You tell us!
Responsibilities
Further our mission to build the infrastructure to train ultra-high scale, open source, foundation models
Competencies
Must Have
Autonomy - able to drive things forward in a high entropy environment
Deep appreciation of small-scale, high-powered teams
Preferred
- Web3 experience - previously worked on a low-level web3 protocol
- Machine learning experience - previously worked closely with ML technologies as a developer or power user
- Nice to Have
- Cryptography engineering (with a focus on GPUs)
- Understanding and navigating AI & Crypto regulations
- Cryptoeconomics and game theoretic design
Compensation / Benefits
- Competitive salary + share of equity and token pool
- Fully remote work- we currently hire between the West Coast (PT) and Central Europe (CET) time zones
- Visa sponsorship -available for those who would like to relocate to the US after being hired
- 3-4x all expenses paid company retreats around the world, per year
Whatever equipment you need
Paid sick leave and flexible vacation
Company-sponsored health, vision, and dental insurance- including spouse/dependents [馃嚭馃嚫 only]
Our Principles
Autonomy & Independence
- Don鈥檛 ask for permission - we have a constraint culture, not a permission culture.
- Claim ownership of any work stream and set its goals/deadlines, rather than waiting to be assigned work or relying on job specs.
- Push & pull context on your work rather than waiting for information from others and assuming people know what you鈥檙e doing.
- Communicate to be understood rather than pushing out information and expecting others to work to understand it.
- Stay a small team - misalignment and politics scale super-linearly with team size. Small protocol teams rival much larger traditional teams.
- Rejection of mediocrity & high performance
- Give direct feedback to everyone immediately - rather than avoiding unpopularity, expecting things to improve naturally, or trading short-term pain for extreme long-term pain.
- Embrace an extreme learning rate - rather than assuming limits to your ability / knowledge.
- Don鈥檛 quit - push to the final outcome, despite any barriers.
- Be anti-fragile - balance short-term risk for long-term outcomes.
- Reject waste - guard the company鈥檚 time, rather than wasting it in meetings without clear purpose/focus, or bikeshedding.
