Welcome to Utopia ⛩!

 

Similar to how most young professionals meet nowadays, our team originally met online (Discord and Twitter).

 

While hacking away together at web3 hackathons, our founding team became fascinated with DAOs. We believe that DAOs have the potential to revolutionize human coordination.

 

DAOs allow individuals across the world to collaborate, allocate capital, and make decisions towards a common goal. It gives access for anyone to capture direct value from what they create, and helps align incentives across millions, if not billions, of people.

 

Our vision is to build the infrastructure to scale DAO’s and crypto native internet organizations. And we're backed by top Crypto investors like Kindred Ventures, Coinbase, Gusto and many DAOs/DAO operators to bring this vision to fruition.

 

💻 Engineering at Utopia Labs

 

We love building beautiful and powerful technology with deep impact and purpose. With almost all of our founding team having a technically-focused background from companies like Microsoft, Facebook, and Lunchclub. Utopia Labs wants you to join a group of hackers who are driven by their deep curiosity, a pursuit of technical excellence, and a passion for driving impact.

 

At Utopia Labs we're building the tools that will support the future of governance, commerce, and work. We aim to help DAOs revolutionize the way people work, own, and interact the world. Our engineering effort is central to that goal.
