What the job involves
- Phi Labs is seeking a talented and motivated Business Development Lead to join our global team
- We are looking for self-starters and mission-driven individuals to join us as we expand Archway across Web3
- The ideal candidate for this role takes initiative and ownership over their work, thrives in fast-paced and highly collaborative remote settings, and is capable of rapidly adapting to evolving needs as required
- You'll be at the helm of pioneering Web3 solutions on top of one of the most developer-friendly blockchain in the Cosmos ecosystem
- You will work closely with our team to bring users, experienced teams, capital providers/funds, exchanges, wallets, infrastructure providers, and novel primitives to the Archway, engaging with groups at the earliest stages in their development and identifying opportunities to play a key role in the broader ecosystem
Our take
Decentralised app developers add immense value to the platforms they build on, but do not share enough in the network's success. Regardless of how many users their work brings into the blockchain, revenue mostly goes towards validators and miners. Phi Labs hopes to change this with Archway, a protocol that rewards developers fairly for the value they add to the blockchain.
Though there are other smart contracting platforms in the market, they have focused mainly on scalability and decentralisation. Phi Labs stands out with its focus on rewarding developers for the users they bring into the network rather than rewarding early participants. If the developer-first approach works, Phi Lab's Archway protocol stands to make a big splash in the $120B Cosmos ecosystem.
Phi Labs has secured early funding, led by notable investors CoinFund and Hashed. The capital raised is being strategically allocated towards product development, scaling up operational capacity, and talent acquisition, with the ambitious goal of more than doubling the size of the team. This infusion of resources is not only crucial for Phi Labs' immediate plans but also bodes well for the long-term trajectory and future success of the company.
