Base is planning to bring a million developers and a billion users onchain. We need your help to make that happen.

Base is growing, and we’re excited to expand our Developer Relations (DevRel) team. Base is built on Optimism’s open-source OP Stack, and our mission is to build a global onchain economy that increases innovation, creativity, and economic freedom, and DevRel is essential to this effort. We’re joining as the second Core Dev team working on the OP Stack to ensure it’s a public good available to everyone; and contributing a portion of sequencer revenue to funding public goods.

Your work as a Senior Developer Advocate will primarily be focused on building creative onchain experiences with the Base Marketing team in order to help bring the next billion users onchain. You’ll work closely with Base engineering, product, ecosystem, and creative teams and will build on the Developer Relations team.
