We’re inviting you to apply for a very important role with Giveth, because we require major support in this area to accomplish our goals!
The world is in a grand transition as more and more humans are recognizing that we must change how we interact with shared resources - what we call “Public"Goods”. It’s time to shift from systems that extract, pollute and waste and transition to regenerative, healthy and resilient systems Many are working to change through a myriad of non-profit, for-impact organizations, but too often comes down to having good sources of funding.
And this is where Giveth can help.
Giveth’s Mission
Giveth is designed to be an interface between the prosocial value-driven collective-focused magic-makers, and the revolutionary funding streams that the crypto space (especially the Ethereum community) has opened up.
Crypto economic systems are creating value-based economies that can enable non-profits around the world to support themselves without personal sacrifice. And that is revolutionary!
These funding mechanisms give donors the confidence needed to collaborate with non-profits in achieving shared goals, including becoming self-sustainable while giving organizations that are caring for Public Goods the ability to cooperate with each other instead of competing for traditional funding. Giveth hopes to be the place where every organization that wants to support Public Goods is able to COOPERATE and COORDINATE in doing so.
This focus on cooperation between our allies is the only attitude that is required to join this organization. Otherwise we prefer to have a diversity of opinion and temperament styles. :-D
If you want to glimpse a piece of this vision… Our Founder Griff Green’s talk at ETHCC in 2019 is probably the best overview of it.
And if you’d like to check out our new Dapp we recently launched, please visit giveth.io.
This job offer is focused on the development and launch of a donor-owned token economy. We need support to accomplish our mission - we need solidity development.
Giveth’s Smart Contract Cred
Giveth has a great reputation and a powerful legacy to uphold. Created in 2016 by the White Hat Group, rising like a phoenix out of the ashes of TheDAO. Most notably we created the Minime Token and Liquid Pledging, which have been adopted by many notable projects in the space. For instance, Aragon uses the Minime token for every Aragon DAO and Status used Liquid Pledging to build ## Assemble which they use for funding their projects https://assemble.fund/#/. In 2017, we rescued 210 million dollars from vulnerable parity multisigs at a Giveth all-hands meeting.
Who are we looking for?
We are seeking an experienced Solidity Dev that has significantly contributed to the build and launch of a project. Ideally this developer would be familiar with Defi, DAOs and yield farming. We love passionate people and hope to call in someone excited about charitable nonprofit work who wants to help us Build the Future of Giving.
Further qualifications include understanding how to fork and adapting previously audited contracts from other projects to re-purpose them for our own use and a willingness to do other backend development work, not only Solidity, as we are a small collaborative team.
