The Firm
Paradigm https://www.paradigm.xyz/ is a San Francisco-based investment firm focused on frontier technologies across the globe, with over $11 billion in assets under management. We make investments in companies and protocols at all stages, ranging from early-stage venture financing rounds to growth equity to liquid assets.
Paradigm was co-founded in 2018 and is co-led by Matt Huang https://www.linkedin.com/in/kmhuang/ and Alana Palmedo https://www.linkedin.com/in/askorniakoffpalmedo/. We’ve been hard at work investigating the world’s most beautiful technical problems since day one. Our research-driven approach helps us build relationships with founders and entrepreneurs, but it also reflects our broader goal of accelerating the progress of frontier technology.
The Role
Over the last eight years Paradigm has built some of the most used open-source software in the crypto industry, including Reth https://github.com/paradigmxyz/reth and Foundry https://github.com/foundry-rs/foundry. Earlier this year we published EVMBench https://paradigm.xyz/evmbench with OpenAI, launched Optimization Arena https://www.optimizationarena.com/ and hosted the Auto Research https://paradigm.xyz/automated-research-hackathon/ hackathon. More recently, we open-sourced Centaur https://www.paradigm.xyz/writing/open-sourcing-centaur-multiplayer-self-hosted-secure-agents, a self-hosted runtime for multiplayer AI agents, which we’ve been using to transform how we work at Paradigm and Tempo.
