About Synapse Labs
Synapse Protocol is a decentralised interchain network, allowing developers and users to read and write data between different blockchains. To date, it has settled $50B, been used by more then 2M users and generated $30M+ in fees. Synapse’s vision is to be the HTTPS for crypto, allowing developers to build apps without the constraints of individual blockchains.
The Synapse Labs team was a major contributor to Synapse and works on new products to expand the Synapse ecosystem. Our team has hubs in New York City and London with the option to be partially or fully remote depending on the position.
