About Dapper Labs and Miquela:
We're not just another web3 company. We're the leading company in the web3 space, having pioneered the NFT standard on Ethereum (ERC-721), launching it with CryptoKitties back in 2017, and later growing the industry and user base alike with NBA Top Shot (over $3B in total transactions to date). We've made it our mission to bring web3 to the mainstream with delightful experiences that demonstrate the power of decentralization in innovative and fun applications. Our portfolio of products include NBA Top Shot, NFL ALL DAY, Disney Pinnacle, CryptoKitties, Miquela, and Laliga Golazos. We're a team of humble and curious entrepreneurs, builders, and tinkerers passionate about demystifying blockchain technology and its potential to create change.
We've made significant strides in our mission, but the journey is far from over - there's still much to achieve. We went through a period of hyper-growth, hired too quickly, and recently had to scale back to right-size our business to a sustainable size and reset our priorities to maximize impact (and we admit: our Glassdoor reviews did take a hit because of it, we know - we're now rebuilding). Nevertheless, we have one of the most passionate communities of collectors and users across our products, along with a stellar team of Dapperites helping us turn our vision into reality, one Moment at a time.
Miquela has been named one of Time's 25 Most Influential People on the Internet, modeled for Prada, Calvin Klein, Burberry and more, interviewed artists at Coachella, released music with 10s of millions of streams, and graced the covers of Wired, V Magazine, L’Officiel, 032C, Wonderland, ES Magazine, Highsnobiety, and many more. She is a bona fide pop star with a social audience of more than 8.2 million and over 75 million streams. She is a change seeker who offers incredible insight into Gen Z. With the global reach of a major star and the intrigue of a virtual human, Miquela is uniquely positioned to drive value for fans and her partners. She’s been recently recognized by many as an AI leader, and has locked in partnerships with BMW, MSI Gaming, Worldcoin, and more.
We’re strongly committed to making Dapper Labs one of the most impactful tech companies in the world, bringing decentralized apps to millions of people, and focusing on longevity and benefits to our society, communities, and our team members. And we'd love to get you to drive with us along this journey. We're gearing up for one of our best years yet, with exciting projects in the pipeline across our products.We're very intentional about who we hire, we keep our bar high to bring the best performing team members. The best people will learn quickly, hit the ground running, focus on prioritizing well to create impact, and have what it takes to help us make Dapper Labs the best place in the world to work at and multiply value creation. We have high ambition, high resilience, and humility to roll up our sleeves and do the work required to make that happen.
We value founder mentality and ownership, passion, hustle, impact, and resilience. We give our employees flexibility, great compensation packages, which also come with strong responsibility and expectation for impact. We have a simple and flat functional hierarchy, focusing on personal autonomy for business impact, and plenty of opportunities for professional growth.
