LayerZero

The Future is Omnichain.

Founded in 2021, LayerZero’s vision is to create a community of cross-chain developers, building dApps that are no longer constrained by individual blockchain capabilities. With LayerZero's simple, generic messaging protocol, builders will develop cross-chain dApps designed to unify the power of individual blockchains.

We have built and launched the first dApp, Stargate, a fully composable native asset bridge that will allow users to swap one asset to another securely and without additional fees.

We are funded by the best investors in the world including:

a16z, Sequoia, PayPal, Binance Ventures, Coinbase Ventures, Uniswap Labs, Circle Ventures, Delphi Digital, and many more.

ABOUT THE ROLE

We are seeking a talented Account Executive to drive and own opportunity development and revenue generation across key Capital Markets accounts in the world. Like us, you’re a high performer who’s an expert at your craft, constantly challenging the status quo. You are motivated, driven by challenge and personal achievement. You have a presence that is fired up with enthusiasm and passion for what you do. It’s how you move, it’s how you approach another person, it’s your handshake, and you stand and face the person. Your energy can make or break the sales call. You understand how to create demand, compelling the customer to consider a solution that may never have been under consideration. You effectively adapt to situations and overcome objections, build rapport, stay calm under pressure, and empathize with the customer.
