What We Do
ZetaChain is building the first fully interoperable, decentralized, and universal blockchain — one universal chain to manage all chains.
For those new to crypto: Think of ZetaChain as the “internet of blockchains.” Just like the internet connects websites and services so they can talk to each other, ZetaChain connects different blockchains — which are normally isolated — so apps and users can move assets and data freely and securely across them. Our network is already live and has been running successfully since early 2024.
Backed by top-tier investors and a global community of developers, ZetaChain is where foundational protocol design meets real-world application. We’re a small, sharp, remote friendly team tackling some of the hardest problems in crypto infrastructure — and we’re hiring for engineering, product, and ecosystem roles.
If you’re excited by deep technical challenges, real impact, and shaping the future of the decentralized internet, you’ll thrive here.
Why Work With Us
