Community Lead

About Aztec

At Aztec we believe privacy isn’t just a fundamental right, but a creative force for web3. Our goal is to unleash the full potential of decentralized technologies by building an open, privacy-first network with no compromises.

 

Privacy enables use cases that otherwise would not be possible and accelerates mainstream adoption. The next wave of web3 applications will require programmable privacy. Aztec’s technology empowers developers with the tools to build private applications and bring their ideas to reality.

 

Our journey started while building an application to bring syndicated loans on chain. We realized that our idea was a nonstarter without privacy. There were no solutions to offer privacy on public blockchains – so we sought out to build it ourselves. Since then, we’ve made industry-leading advances in cryptography, and deployed a private money platform and a private DeFi platform.

 

To realize our vision of implementing privacy on a public blockchain, we are building a world-class team of cryptographers, engineers, and ecosystem builders. Supporting us on this journey are leading investors including Paradigm, Variant, Consensys, and a_capital.

The role

We’re looking for a Community Lead with a deep understanding of Ethereum scaling solutions. You must be web3 native, with familiarity across community, governance, and tooling, and passionate about empowering the Aztec community of privacy-first users and developers.

 

This is a high-impact role, both within Aztec and in the broader Ethereum, crypto, and zero-knowledge communities. You’re not just a Discord degenerate, Twitter tinkerer or Medium monkey, but someone driven by the ideals of decentralization. This role offers significant visibility across the crypto ecosystem.

 

You will help onboard and manage a team of community advocates and contributors, and you’re committed to shepherding Aztec stakeholders through our progressive decentralization roadmap.
