Head of Marketing
Aragon
Marketing & Communications
Zug, Switzerland
Posted on Nov 26, 2024
Aragon is a team of 20 people that spans a broad range of backgrounds, interests, and geographies. We're entrepreneurs, technologists and skeptics, troublemakers and problem solvers, who are building unstoppable tooling for the creation and management of Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs). Our mission is to enable any organization to experiment with governance at the speed of software and we envision a world where humans can coordinate by the rule of code, reducing the need for enforcement by trusted systems, often through the use of violence.
Aragon launched the first DAO framework in 2017, securing over $35 billion in assets for the likes of Lido and Curve. We are currently building Aragon OSx & App, a new and improved tech-stack supporting projects such as Polygon and Taiko.

You will be a key leader of the organization, championing onchain governance online and IRL, and driving product awareness and growth.
