At Offchain, we aren’t just building products: we’re leading a movement.
As pioneers in blockchain scalability and security, we're at the forefront of transforming how the world interacts with decentralized applications.

At the center of this vision is our people. Our team is made up of thinkers and doers that embrace new challenges and seek solutions that push existing boundaries. If you’re energized by solving unprecedented problems, and believe in the role that decentralized systems will play in creating a more equitable digital future, then we want to hear from you.

Why Offchain?

Offchain is setting the pace for the entire Ethereum ecosystem. We built the Arbitrum stack that powers Arbitrum One, the most widely adopted Ethereum scaling solution that exists today.
Arbitrum’s ecosystem is undergoing tremendous growth with hundreds of projects and dApps on Arbitrum One today. Over 100 different teams have used Offchain technology to build their own Arbitrum chains. Major players in the space, Robinhood, BlackRock, Ethena Labs, Securitize, Aave, and Apechain are all using the Arbitrum stack.
Arbitrum’s thriving ecosystem wouldn’t exist without our advanced technology stack. Arbitrum, Prysm, ZeroDev. These aren’t just product names. These are tools that are actively reshaping what's possible on Ethereum and advancing its core infrastructure.
To top it all off? We’re backed by $124 million in funding. We’ve demonstrated consistent execution with billions in secured value, thousands of supported projects, and infrastructure processing millions of transactions seamlessly.

  • Audit & Stakeholder Management: Own relationships with external auditors, tax authorities, and strategic partners, ensuring seamless compliance and sophisticated reporting in a complex regulatory landscape.

What you’ll need:

  • Proven Executive Tenure: 10+ years of progressive finance leadership, with significant scale-up experience in high-growth technology environments.
  • Strategic Visionary: A track record of moving beyond the "numbers" to influence company strategy, fundraising, and organizational design at the Board and executive levels.

View company profile

Offchain Labs is at the forefront of blockchain innovation, dedicated to pioneering and advancing scaling solutions for Ethereum. Founded in 2018 by Ed Felten, Steven Goldfeder, and Harry Kalodner, the company emerged from deep research at Princeton University with a clear mission: to enable developers, businesses, and individuals to fully experience Ethereum's capabilities without compromise. Through groundbreaking technology, Offchain Labs is revolutionizing the Ethereum ecosystem with Arbitrum, its flagship suite of scaling solutions. Arbitrum utilizes an 'Optimistic Rollup' technique, which significantly increases transaction throughput and reduces costs while maintaining the robust security of the Ethereum mainnet. This allows decentralized applications (dApps) to operate with enhanced efficiency and scalability, paving the way for broader adoption and more complex use cases.

The core of Offchain Labs' innovation lies in its commitment to research and development. The team continuously builds upon its foundational technology, introducing enhancements and new products like Arbitrum One, Arbitrum Nova, Arbitrum Orbit, Stylus, BOLD, and Arbitrum Nitro. Arbitrum One is designed for general-purpose dApp scaling, while Arbitrum Nova caters to applications demanding even higher throughput, such as gaming and social platforms. Arbitrum Orbit empowers developers to launch their own customizable Layer 3 chains. A significant milestone in Offchain Labs' journey was the acquisition of Prysmatic Labs in October 2022, the team behind Prysm, Ethereum's leading consensus client. This strategic move further solidified Offchain Labs' dedication to contributing to the core Ethereum infrastructure and its long-term success. By focusing on making blockchain technology more accessible, efficient, and powerful, Offchain Labs is actively shaping the future of decentralized systems and fostering a more scalable and user-friendly Web3 environment.
