Lead EVM engineer

About Firm

Corporations are one of the greatest forms of human coordination ever invented. The best companies of our time live and thrive because of the internet. Personal computing and the web removed physical barriers and created incredible network effects. 

But though companies produce internet-native products, their organizational structure is stuck in the past. Game-changing companies run on legacy systems built during an era that relied on letters and handshakes, not software. 

Thus, Firm is upgrading the corporation to the internet age. We’re using smart contracts to build technical and legal infrastructure to create and operate internet-native companies.

To make this happen, we are building an elite team. People who hold each other accountable, who believe in working hard and the value of spending a meaningful amount of time working together in person. 

Firm has been running on Firm from day one. We believe this is the best way to run an internet-native company, and so is how we run ours.
