Goldfinch is looking to hire a remote Head of Community to join the team.
Founded by two ex-Coinbase employees and backed by top investors including Andreesen Horowitz, Coinbase, IDEO, and Kindred Ventures, Goldfinch is a decentralized credit platform that is using crypto to empower financial inclusion around the world.

We now serve thousands of end-borrowers across three continents and over 10 different countries. And we're just getting started.
As the Head of Community at Goldfinch, youâll be responsible for creating a healthy, self sustaining, and growing community for the Goldfinch Protocol. Currently, the Goldfinch community primarily includes individuals from DeFi and traditional finance who are interacting with the Goldfinch protocol and community.
