Our mission is to unlock the collaborative power of communities by making Web3
universally easy to use, access, and build on.
Working with Consensys puts you at the **forefront of an evolving paradigm** ,
transforming our society for the better. We fundamentally believe blockchain

tools, infrastructure, and apps that scale these platforms to billions of
users.
You’ll be constantly exposed to new concepts, ideas, and frameworks from your
peers, and as you work on different projects — challenging you to stay at the

that reaches the **edge of our ecosystem**. Consensys alumni have moved on to
become tech entrepreneurs, CEOs, and team leads at tech companies.

People and Talent support the entire Consensys community. We strive to be the
destination employer of choice for our ecosystem. That goal is embedded in all

put ‘people first’ and are designing and building the workplace of the future.
