- Be mission-focused. Anyone who is in this for reasons other than creating the best worldwide financial system in history will either get too demotivated to last through multi-year bear markets or get too distracted during the frothy bull markets.
- Be willing to work long, hard and smart. If EtherAuthority has any advantage, it is the willingness to work harder and think with more discipline than anyone else. This includes thinking from first principles about all important decisions and always thinking in tradeoffs and bets.
- Be an owner. You will get ownership in EtherAuthority after a short time in this role, so you will be expected to act like you are the owner of a Michelin-star restaurant where no effort or detail is too small for you.
- Be a builder. Everyone at EtherAuthority is deep in the arena and we are reminded of that every day by the people who sit in the stands (on Twitter or elsewhere) and criticize. There are no "idea people" or managers at EtherAuthority; everyone is in execution mode first and foremost and gets their hands dirty.
- Be a customer at all times. we must experience the customer's viewpoint as often as possible.
- You thrive in a direct, transparent environment. You must be comfortable giving direct feedback to others and receiving direct feedback yourself. "Not ruffling feathers" comes at the expense of moving in a suboptimal direction for too long. EtherAuthority is extremely transparent internally (and with customers) which means you can get involved in decisions made in any part of EtherAuthority.

Senior Business Development Executive - India - EtherAuthority

Description
Company Description
EtherAuthority is a company dedicated to empowering blockchain businesses by helping them utilize Blockchain Technology to transform their operations. We provide smart contract security audit service, which helps secure their smart contracts from potential bugs and vulnerabilities.
EtherAuthority's Culture
EtherAuthority's culture is fast-moving, intense, and not right for everyone. To excel on this team, you must:
Role Description
As a Senior Business Development Executive, your main task will be to find high-quality existing and up-and-coming protocol teams in crypto (all the up-coming and existing Dapps and token projects ) and convey the superiority of EtherAuthority audits to them.
For the past 12 months, EtherAuthority has done lot more audits (~100). But the vast majority of these audits have come to EtherAuthority from word of mouth and repeat customers. This is incredible, but it means that there are vast swaths of the ecosystem that still have never heard of EtherAuthority or don't know why EtherAuthority is superior to other auditors. Every time a high-quality crypto project chooses an inferior auditor (instead of EtherAuthority) it holds the space back from its full potential and puts the life savings of end users at risk. If you're serious about applying for this job and you've read this far, please email contact at etherauthority dot io with 4-sentence answers to these three questions: In what ways have you creatively gotten in touch with people you wanted to meet in the past? Why will you be able to get connected to the best protocol teams in crypto? Why should EtherAuthority select you over hundreds of other applicants?
Your role is simple:
Find high-quality existing and up-and-coming protocol teams (and dapps and token projects) in crypto and convey the superiority of EtherAuthority audits to them.
Of course, in practice this job involves a lot of skills.
An understanding of smart contract security and a protocol development cycle is a plus, but it's not needed to get started in this role.
You'll need to be very skilled at both speaking and writing: EtherAuthority makes important decisions and weighs tradeoffs exclusively in written communication, and many protocol teams want to see a face and hear a voice before choosing an auditor.
You'll need to find ways to get connected to decision makers at high-quality protocols (and chains, and dapps) in crypto, build relationships with them, and share the benefits of EtherAuthority with them.
With that in mind, the day-to-day responsibilities of this role likely include:
