Who we are:


We're an ambitious team of researchers, builders, and entrepreneurs with many years of experience in crypto, and we are passionate about digital assets.

We strive to understand our users’ needs and behaviours to help create useful, usable, and engaging products and features.


Role Summary:


This position is a sleeve up, heels dug in, high quality and high output research role in an equally high revving team that serves 100% of the company's design and research needs. At the end of your four months, you will have supported the Research, Design, and Product teams by finding the right people to talk to, conducting studies using different research methods, making sense of the gathered data, and presenting impactful and actionable insights.
