  • Comfortable in environments with significant ambiguity, such as early-stage startups or new business lines.
  • Enough technical fluency to work directly with engineers and security architects.
  • Experience in regulated markets and with institutional risk and compliance processes.
  • Clear communication skills and ability to operate reasonably under pressure.
  • Ideally, experience selling custody, wallets, key management, or blockchain infrastructure, and relationships across US and Canadian institutions.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
