About Outlier Ventures Outlier Ventures is the leading global Web3 accelerator and venture platform. Since 2014, we have supported over 400 startups through our flagship Base Camp programs and strategic collaborations. Our mission is to build the “Post Web”—a decentralized future powered by open data, cryptographic systems, intelligent agents, and composable economies. We work at the intersection of cutting-edge technologies—spanning AI x Crypto, DePIN, DeFi, infrastructure, RWAs, and data privacy—and collaborate with a global network of 1,000+ Web3 founders, protocols, and investors. At Outlier Ventures, we celebrate intellectual curiosity, diversity of background, and a builder’s mindset. We encourage applicants from all walks of life and are committed to creating an inclusive, equitable workplace. About the Role We are seeking a Post Web Engineer to help evaluate, advise, and accelerate the next wave of category-defining start ups across Web3, AI, and token economies. This is a hybrid role blending technical product leadership, technical investment due diligence, and innovation strategy. Youll assess technical feasibility, architecture, and execution readiness of early-stage startups applying to our accelerator. You will also guide founders across architecture, stack decisions, product design, and token model refinement. You’ll work across different expertise fields, such as product, investments, AI, and token engineering to influence which start ups we back—and how we support them post-investment.
