Joining Paradigm

I'm excited to announce that I've joined Paradigm as a Research Engineer, to help Fred Ehrsam, Matt Huang, and the rest of the team as they push the boundaries in building a crypto-native investment firm.

I've had the pleasure of collaborating with the research team over the past few months, as I speed-ran the Paradigm blog, hacking together prototypes of RICKS, Mortys, Smart Batched Auctions, and TWAMM. Talking about mechanism design with Dave White and Dan Robinson, crypto tooling with Georgios Konstantopoulos, security with samczsun, and prototyping with Anish Agnihotri all felt like rare privileges.

Throughout our interactions, I was struck by their focus on pushing the crypto space forward. Paradigm has assembled a world-class team of builders, and is uniquely equipped to support those at the spearhead. I'm grateful that my focus at the firm will be continuing to build, with both the research and engineering teams, as well as with our portfolio companies.

If you are also a builder, we want to hear from you. Whether you're an anon writing your first lines of Solidity, or an experienced founder, you can DM me on Twitter, or reach me by email at frankie@paradigm.xyz. There's a lot of work to be done.
