We’re seeking a Senior Technical Product Manager for our Cryptography and
Protocol teams.
O(1) Labs recently launched Mina Protocol, the world’s lightest blockchain
(22KB - the size of a couple tweets) powered by Recursive Snarks technology.
Mina’s small size blockchain solves three of the most difficult challenges in
the blockchain space - privacy, scalability, and decentralization.
The Cryptography team is responsible for our revolutionary recursive proof
systems Kimchi and Pickles. The Protocol team leverages these libraries to
build the foundation of the Mina blockchain including consensus, networking,
block production and more!
The Sr. Technical Product Manager will:
Talk to customers and build up customer segments and ideal customer profiles
Analyze the industry to establish trends and opportunities
Develop product roadmap & strategy
Identify and track metrics
Evaluate and prioritize specific opportunities and areas of improvement (e.g.
TPS, node operator experience, block time, etc) for the Mina protocol
Develop product requirements
Collaborate with engineering, cryptography & other teams in the O(1)Labs to
design, develop, build, QA, and release new products & developer tools for the
Mina protocol
Collaborate with the ecosystem participants (e.g. node operators and
developers) to address their needs, communicate product roadmap, and
incorporate their feedback into product roadmap
Ideal candidates will have:
5+ years of previous experience in product management of one or more
successful products or services
Some understanding of blockchain or distributed systems
Strong technical background (ideally a software engineering or CS background)
Strong communication skills
Familiarity with technical concepts such as API’s, GraphQL, blockchains or
distributed systems, etc
Experience with cryptography or proof systems is a bonus
**About Us**
O(1) Labs has developed the first cryptocurrency protocol that can deliver on
the promise of supporting real-world applications and widespread use. Our
remote team is spread across the world, and we are funded by top investors
(including Polychain, Metastable, Max Levchin, and Naval Ravikant).
The US base salary range for this full-time position is for $220k to $225k
(Level 6) + equity + benefits and $190k to $205k (Level 5) + equity +
benefits. Our salary ranges are determined by role and level. The range
displayed on each job posting reflects the minimum and maximum target for new
hire salaries for the position for remote roles. Within the range, individual
pay is determined by role, level, and additional factors, including job-
related skills and experience. Your recruiter can share more about the
specific salary range during the hiring process.
We have recently brought Mina Protocol to market, a cryptocurrency that
compresses the blockchain from hundreds of gigabytes down to the size of a few
tweets (22KB). Mina can scale to thousands of transactions per second and
millions of users while remaining decentralized enough for cell phones to be
fully verifying nodes. We're now working on catalyzing a new generation of
apps powered by zero-knowledge cryptography
We believe it's important to incorporate diverse perspectives from conception
through realization. This is a chance to join a small, collaborative team and
have a ton of independence while working on fascinating cross-disciplinary
problems that span cryptography, engineering, product design, economics, and
sociology. We also offer competitive compensation both in salary and equity as
well as top-of-the-market benefits.
We are committed to building a diverse, inclusive company. People of color,
LGBTQ individuals, women, and people with disabilities are strongly encouraged
to apply.
O(1) Labs focuses on Cryptocurrency and Blockchains. Their company has offices
in San Francisco. They have a small team that's between 11-50 employees.
