About

Check out our open positions: https://openzeppelin.com/jobs/*OpenZeppelin does not accept CVs from external parties or recruitment agencies. Any unsolicited CVs sent to us will be treated as property of OpenZeppelin, and any attached terms and conditions associated with these CVs will be null and void.*I recognize the importance of bringing in the right people to an organization to not only deliver on its product/services, but to also foster a positive work culture to sustain success. With that in mind, I pride myself on both finding the right people and providing the best candidate experience possible - a recruiter is often times a candidate's first human exposure to a company and representation of its core values from the beginning goes a long way in ensuring there's a mutual fit.As a recruiter, I've placed qualified technical and non-technical candidates at companies of all industries and sizes, with a specialization in Blockchain over the last 4+ years. Placed positions have ranged from Product Managers to Engineers to Directors, infrastructure to SDLC, DevRel, front end/back end/full stack, blockchain, Java to .NET to smart contracts - you name it, odds are I've sourced for it. Over the last few years I have expanded my expertise into functional positions, primarily concerning sales/BD/ecosystem development and project management.
