Who we are

📌 Cosmos Labs is the core team driving development and growth of the Cosmos blockchain ecosystem, Cosmos technology stack, and the Cosmos Hub. Cosmos powers the largest network of vertically integrated Layer 1 blockchains in the world: 200+ blockchains use the Cosmos Stack in production.

At Cosmos Labs, we are responsible for developing new software and products for the Cosmos Stack and its customers, building and maintaining customer relationships, growing the adoption of our Stack, and fostering the community of independent builders and end users in the Cosmos blockchain ecosystem. Cosmos Labs builds open-source blockchain infrastructure used by 200+ networks globally. The Cosmos SDK and IBC protocol are the foundation for chains managing tens of billions in value. We are now applying this stack to bank tokenized deposits — the most significant shift in banking infrastructure since SWIFT, with the goal of delivering 24/7 asset settlement.

We focus on hiring the core team and senior talent to work together in person in NYC and Berlin to build a collaborative and supportive culture. We are open to hiring best-in-class remote talent anywhere within 6 hours of the NYC timezone.

Core team member responsibilities

1. Work to solve hard technical problems at the cutting edge of blockchain research, alongside a world-class team.
2. Be empowered to make bold technical and strategic decisions, including in product development, software engineering, marketing, sales, and operations.
3. Play a critical role in building our culture, our engineering practices, the products we ship, and our customer relationships.

How we work

1. We value ambition and work ethic. This means initiative, self development, and adaptability are non-negotiable, even for the most experienced candidates.
2. We value thoughtful and contentious dialogue over siloed and unilateral decision-making.
3. We value acknowledging uncertainty and seeking support over unabated confidence and solo performances.
4. We’re obsessive about documenting everything, learning, and shipping as fast as possible with short feedback cycles.

Cosmos Labs is committed to inclusion.

Cosmos Labs is committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace and strongly encourages individuals from underrepresented backgrounds to apply. We believe the purpose of blockchain is to expand who has agency in society, which starts at home, by empowering people with diverse gender identities, ethnic backgrounds, and life experiences within our own organization. Cosmos Labs offers dedicated mentorship to support personal growth and a bright career in crypto.

Benefits

We offer competitive, equitable compensation and benefits tailored to your location — including token compensation, paid leave, and health coverage. Our goal is to make sure every team member, wherever they are, has what they need to do their best work.
