About Us

Syndicate is building the infrastructure to take web3 mainstream. Developers leverage Syndicate’s products to abstract web3’s complexity, allowing teams to spend less time managing complex web3 infrastructure and more time building an exceptional end-to-end experience for their customers.

Founded in January 2021, we've raised over $28M from top leaders who represent a diverse array of industries and communities, including firms like Andreessen Horowitz, IDEO CoLab Ventures, Variant, Electric Capital, Coinbase, and over 200 other strategic and community investors.

We’re proud to be a distributed company that's remote-first. We’ve built a top-notch remote culture that includes perks such as an employee perks stipend, coworking space stipend, unlimited time off, regular in-person meetups around the world (including twice a year where we fly the whole company out to a shared summit), and many more benefits to help you do your best work wherever you are.

At Syndicate, we're building a fundamentally revolutionary product—one that promises to bring crypto to the mainstream in a way never before attempted. That starts with a diverse, inclusive, and welcoming team. We are proud to be an equal opportunity workplace.
