SEAL

SEAL

Community Fundraising Lead

SEAL protects the crypto ecosystem, and we think the community we protect should have a direct way to support that mission. We have strong institutional backing, but we want to build something like what the EFF has - a grassroots donor base of everyday users who chip in because they believe in the work. We're looking for someone who's run community fundraising before (or has always wanted to) and can help us figure out what that looks like for SEAL. What You'll Do: - Help design SEAL's individual donor program - what perks make sense, what the tiers look like, how we tell the story. - Plan and run community fundraising campaigns around moments like Gitcoin Grants rounds, end-of-year giving, or matching campaigns. - Write the copy that explains why SEAL matters to someone who's never heard of us. - Leverage SEAL's network and connections (including samczsun) for intros, calls, and whatever else you need to get things moving. What We're Looking For: - Experience with grassroots fundraising, community marketing, or Web3 public goods - even if it was for your own project. - A feel for what motivates crypto-native people to open their wallets for a cause. - Creative thinking about how to make donors feel valued without overcomplicating things. Expected Commitment: ~5 hours per week, with potential spikes around specific campaigns.

SEAL

Institutional Partnerships (Web3)

SEAL has strong relationships across the Web3 ecosystem, but most of our fundraising has been founder-led, and that doesn't scale. We need someone who knows how institutional giving works in crypto and can help us build real structure around it, taking the warm relationships we already have and turning them into a repeatable process with better outreach, clearer asks, and consistent follow-through. What You'll Do: - Help professionalize SEAL's institutional outreach - improve our messaging, pitch materials, and follow-up process. - Reach out to Web3 foundations, ecosystem funds, and VCs on SEAL's behalf, or coach us on how to do it better ourselves. - Keep funding conversations moving. A lot of institutional giving stalls because nobody follows up - you'd make sure that doesn't happen. - Leverage SEAL's network and connections (including samczsun) for warm intros, joint calls, and whatever context you need to move conversations forward. What We're Looking For: - Experience with institutional fundraising, BD, or investor relations in crypto - you know how foundations and VCs think about funding public goods. - You're comfortable in high-context conversations with serious people and can represent SEAL well. Expected Commitment: Flexible - anywhere from a few hours a month to a few hours a week depending on what's active.

SEAL

Institutional Partnerships (Web2)

SEAL is crypto-native, but what we do - securing critical infrastructure against sophisticated attackers - resonates far beyond Web3. Traditional cybersecurity firms, tech companies, and philanthropic foundations all care about this problem. We just need someone who speaks their language. If you have relationships in traditional tech, finance, or philanthropy and want to help connect SEAL to that world, this role is for you. What You'll Do: - Identify funding or partnership opportunities with non-crypto institutions, such as think cybersecurity firms, tech CSR programs, and traditional grant-making foundations. - Translate what SEAL does into language that makes sense to people who don't live on CT. Help us write the grant applications, pitch decks, and one-pagers that these institutions expect. - Drive conversations forward through the long cycles that traditional institutions require. - Leverage SEAL's network and connections (including samczsun) for calls, technical context, and help telling SEAL's story to a non-crypto audience. What We're Looking For: - An existing network in traditional tech, finance, or institutional philanthropy. The value here is your relationships and your understanding of how these institutions operate. - Experience bridging the gap between Web3 and Web2 - you can explain DeFi exploits to a corporate grants committee without losing them. Expected Commitment: A few hours a week to keep long-term conversations moving. This is slow, steady work - perfect for someone who enjoys the long game.

Regional Policy Advisor

Crypto security is a policy issue. Across the US, EU, APAC, and beyond, regulators are actively shaping the rules around vulnerability disclosure, emergency intervention, and crypto security. SEAL needs to be part of those conversations, but we can't be everywhere at once. If you already work in tech or crypto policy and want to bring SEAL into the rooms you're already in, this is the role for you. What You'll Do: - Represent SEAL in policy discussions, regulatory roundtables, and working groups in your region - as something like "Policy Lead at [Your Company] and Policy Advisor for SEAL." - When relevant conversations come up in your network, bring SEAL to the table or loop us in. - Keep the SEAL team informed on regulatory developments that affect crypto security in your region. What We're Looking For: - You already work in tech or crypto policy and have real relationships with lawmakers, regulators, or industry working groups. - You care about crypto security policy and see SEAL's involvement as a natural extension of work you're already doing. Expected Commitment: Flexible - as opportunities come up in your region. Some weeks that's nothing, some weeks it's a few hours.

Safe Harbor

Safe Harbor

Safe Harbor Evangelist

When a protocol gets hacked, whitehats race to rescue funds - but without clear legal protection, many hesitate to act. The Safe Harbor agreement fixes this by giving whitehats pre-authorized permission to intervene during an active exploit. More protocols adopting Safe Harbor means more whitehats willing to step in, which means more funds saved. What You'll Do: - Champion Safe Harbor adoption by reaching out to protocols in your network (or cold) and making the case for why they should adopt it. - Guide protocol teams through the adoption process - from initial conversation to governance proposal to final implementation. - Draft forum posts, governance proposals, and supporting materials tailored to each protocol's community and governance structure. - Keep conversations moving - follow up with teams, unblock stalled processes, and make sure proposals don't die in committee. What We're Looking For: - Someone plugged into the DeFi/DAO ecosystem who can credibly engage with protocol teams and governance communities. - Strong written communication - you'll be writing forum posts and proposals that need to resonate with token holders and core contributors alike. - Familiarity with DAO governance processes (Snapshot, Tally, forum-based proposal flows) is a big plus. Expected Commitment: A few hours a week, flexible. This is about relationships and momentum, not clocking hours - you could be actively shepherding multiple protocols or just keeping a few conversations warm depending on the week.
