Contract: 6 months. Remote. Reports to the CEO, Gravity Labs.
Evaluate a range of potential startup ideas with an eye towards finding the one you'll ultimately go work on full-time as a Founder.
About Gravity Labs
Gravity Labs is a crypto focused venture studio. We don't write checks and wait. We come up with initial ideas, pressure test those ideas, recruit the founding team, and write the first seed check ourselves. We're owned by defy.vc, which gives us institutional firepower and a network most studios don't have.
Today we have three live portfolio companies, a fourth launching in weeks, and an active pipeline of new hatches. We're small, fast, and unapologetically opinionated about what gets built.
What You'll Do
- Generate and source new hatches across crypto, including DeFi, stablecoins, infra, prediction markets, and anything that looks like a real gap in the ecosystem.
- Take the best ideas from a few sentences to one pager to investment memo to IC pitch, following Gravity's hatch process.
- Use the Gravity team and advisor network as a sounding board, but drive the work yourself.
- Spend time with the existing team and portfolio without being deeply embedded in their day to day.
- By month six, have at least one idea that you believe in enough to become the Founder of.
You choose what to work on. The CEO of Gravity and the Defy IC ultimately sign off on funding, but the agenda is yours.
Who We're Looking For
- You are a repeat founder, ideally with a crypto exit or a notable swing and miss, or a senior operator from a strong crypto company ready to start something.
- Deep enough in crypto to have opinions about where the next decade goes.
- Comfortable working in ambiguity and generating your own idea flow.
- Honest about what you don't know, objective about what will work, and intellectually honest.
