Minti is a new project in stealth-mode with about 50% of MVP development completed. Before this pivot into blockchain, we were the creators of Endorsify, an innovative influencer marketplace where we helped brands price creators' user-generated content. After a sale to Her Campus Media in June 2020, we made a foray into the crypto network that is now Minti.

Our mission at Minti is to auto-mint social posts as non-fungible tokens, giving creators full control of distribution. We raised venture capital from 3KVC, Innovation Works, Comcast, Nex3, Quake Capital, Alex Adelman, Ryan Fang, and more.

ABOUT the role

---

How’d you like to be one of the founding engineers of a team led by Forbes 30 under 30 founders? Minti is looking for a full-time Smart Contract Engineer/VP of Engineering to help bring our new product to market. You’ll work directly with the founders to build out the MVP, and contribute directly to the major product decisions that will shape iterations—for example, which chain to migrate to: Ethereum vs Flow vs Matic POS. The scope of your responsibilities range from the low-level contract backend that manage Minti’s NFT marketplace mechanisms, all the way up to consumer-facing web frontend. You must have an open mind, a collaborative spirit, and a willingness to question the status quo whenever it gets in the way of innovation.

All of us at Minti share a common vision: to create the future of social media we want to partake in. We need more people like you to help us realize that vision.

The team

Minti team members are curious entrepreneurs, builders, and tinkerers who share a passion to demystify NFT technology and tap its potential to create true ownership-based social media and return the power to individuals. Our people are our greatest strength: our young and diverse crew flourishes in a distributed hierarchy where personal autonomy and professional growth are encouraged. We value our culture above else: regardless of where you came from, what you studied, or who you used to work for, your role here will necessitate both a high level of creativity and strategic thinking on complex issues. Everyone here is a founder, and no one fits in a box. We’re all driven by an insatiable thirst for learning and development, and that’s what brings us together.
