Job Summary
Our Requirements
📍We've divided up our requirements into a strategic level where you will be driving change and a tactical level which is already on-going tasks that simply need more manpower.
Strategic Level
📍Our Head of Strategic Investments is extremely strong at brainstorming and idea generation, deal structuring, and networking / dealflow.
They would like you to take the lead in the following areas to bring the team to the next level:
📍Creating a framework to prioritize and rank the many projects that ask us to invest in them. 📍Right now, it is an overwhelming number, and the lack of a framework causes great inbounds to sometimes fall through the cracks. 📍 The best deals are often time-sensitive. Remind the team what is important each day and week. 📍Be an intellectual sparring partner / ad-hoc investment committee to ensure we don't miss great projects from subjective biases. 📍Help the team go from being reactive to proactive so we don't suffer from adverse selection. Many of the best projects may not reach out to us. 📍Taking all inbounds and first calls, especially on the market making and VC side. 📍Dealing with all nitty gritty post-management part of advisory. 📍Come up with additional ideas to save our Head time and prioritize the most promising projects. 📍Be in charge of writing and communicating our plans to the rest of the team. 📍Take our team's vision, fill out the details, and communicate it to the organization what we need to succeed. 📍We often have many synergies with our discretionary and on-chain research counter-parts and need to make sure we're sharing our plans, needs, and discoveries. 📍In summary, most of the requirements on the strategic level have to do with soft-skills (organization, detail-orientation, writing/communication), and your ability to complement our Head.
Tactical Level
📍Our Head of Strategic Investments is extremely strong in the perp DEX and stablecoin space. We envisage eventually expanding beyond these areas (e.g. ZK, NFT, Web3 Gaming, infrastructure-related outside exchange and trading space), but in the initial stage of this team, we want to first focus on dominating the perp DEX and stablecoin space.
