Head of Business Development & Partnerships

What is Mnemonic?

At Mnemonic, we are excited to be building the ultimate foundational data layer for the NFT industry, doing the hard work once so that everyone else can focus on building the most amazing and inspiring products possible.

NFTs are already flipping the script on longstanding systems of ownership on the Internet and empowering creatives and brands to engage fans in new ways. This is just the very beginning. We believe the future potential of NFTs extends far beyond what we can possibly imagine today and we look forward to building that future together with you.

We simplify the increasingly-complex task of reading, searching, aggregating and analyzing massive amounts of data on chains and off chains, so developers can bring better products to market faster. By empowering the innovators, we’re empowering the people.

Our existing relationships range from crypto native startups to traditional Fortune 500 brands, and therefore you will work directly with a range of companies across different sectors, sizes and NFT familiarity. Today these relationships are brokered and owned by the founding team and within this role you will take over not only those relationships but also own responsibility for building out and growing our BD and partnerships program.

The role

• Ensuring the success of existing partners: You will work closely with existing and future partners by synthesizing feedback, negotiating deal structures, and managing relationships.


• Owning partnerships strategy: Reporting to the CEO, you will own and develop the overall partnerships strategy and function within the organization.

What we are looking for

• 3+ years experience in partnerships or business development (with at least 1 of the years at a software or technology company)


• Experience with working in cross-functional team environments (engineering, product, support, partnerships, marketing, etc.)


• Understanding of NFT and Web3 culture, NFT landscapes (marketplaces, DeFi, gaming)


• Entrepreneurial and self-directed, innovative, biased towards action in fast-paced environments


• Able to tackle ambiguous and undefined problems

Nice to haves

• Experience navigating and closing BD/partnerships within complex traditional Fortune 500 enterprises


• Personal experience owning and trading NFT’s and cryptocurrency more broadly

Benefits

• Generous equity of an early stage fast-growing startup


• Opportunity to join the team in the early days, take on major responsibility, and make meaningful contributions


• Work as part of the diverse team solving unique and challenging problems. While US-based, our founding team and employees come from different countries and backgrounds


• Competitive cash compensation


• Medical, Dental and Vision coverage to keep you and your family healthy (we cover 100% premiums for employees)


• Ability to work remotely within the US


• Unlimited PTO


• Stipend for your home office setup
