Full Job Description
📋 Description
- • We are seeking exceptional talent to create a custom role aligned with Injective Labs’ mission in crypto, DeFi, and emerging technologies, even if no formal position currently matches your background.
- • Candidates are encouraged to propose how they can contribute to Injective’s growth by identifying unmet needs in engineering, product, operations, research, people, or other domains.
- • The role demands high ownership and autonomy, with the expectation that you will proactively identify problems and drive solutions without direct oversight.
- • You will operate within highly technical teams and must be comfortable engaging with complex technical systems, protocols, and product architectures in a fast-paced environment.
- • Adaptability is critical — priorities shift rapidly, and you must be able to pivot quickly while maintaining momentum and delivering results.
- • Strong communication skills are required to collaborate effectively across functions, including engineering, product, design, and business teams.
- • You must be genuinely passionate about cryptocurrency, decentralized finance, and the broader blockchain ecosystem, with a demonstrated interest in its evolution and real-world applications.
- • This is not a traditional role with predefined responsibilities; success depends on your ability to articulate a compelling vision for how your unique skills can add value to Injective.
- • You will be expected to work independently, take initiative, and build relationships across the organization to ensure alignment and execution.
- • The role supports both New York-based and remote US-based candidates, with global remote consideration for exceptional applicants.
- • You must thrive in environments where ambiguity is common and structure is emergent rather than prescribed.
- • Your contributions should reflect a bias for action, a willingness to experiment, and a commitment to continuous learning in a rapidly evolving industry.
- • You will be part of a team that values transparency, integrity, and equal opportunity, and you are expected to uphold these principles in all interactions.
- • All communication regarding this role will originate exclusively from @injective.foundation domain; any other source is not affiliated with Injective Labs.
- • This position is open to individuals from diverse professional backgrounds who can demonstrate impact, initiative, and alignment with Injective’s culture and technical ambitions.
- • You will not be assigned a standard job description — instead, you will define your own scope of work based on your expertise and Injective’s strategic needs.
- • The role requires self-direction, intellectual curiosity, and the ability to operate with minimal supervision while maintaining accountability for outcomes.
- • You must be able to articulate clear, measurable ways in which your involvement will advance Injective’s goals in technology, adoption, or ecosystem development.
- • This opportunity is ideal for builders who prefer shaping the future over following existing frameworks.
🎯 Requirements

- • Strong communication and cross-functional collaboration skills
- • Experience operating within highly technical teams or environments

- • Willingness to create and define your own role based on Injective’s needs
🏖️ Benefits
- • Opportunity to design a personalized role aligned with your skills and Injective’s mission
