About Unto Labs
Unto Labs is building Thru, a high-performance Layer 1 blockchain. As we approach our mainnet launch, we’re looking to share our story with the world and we need a writer to help us do it right.
About the Role
We’re seeking a crypto-native Writer/Editorial Staff to help shape the voice of Unto Labs. You’ll sit with founders and engineers, absorb the technical and strategic thinking that defines our direction, and craft clear, insightful, and compelling long-form content to deepen the public's understanding of Thru and Unto Labs. Your work will help shape how the outside world understands the ideas and innovations at the heart of Thru.
This is not a generalist marketing role, nor a BD/slide-deck role. This is a writing-first, editorial seat where you’ll own the words that define us. In this role you will curate, distill, and narrate the deep technical and commercial work we do at Unto Labs.
Responsibilities
Pitch and refine 8-10 story ideas per week; prioritized with leadership
Interview team members and external experts to gather insight and perspective on relevant topics
Write and publish original long-form content on a weekly / bi-weekly cadence
Manage and maintain publishing on Substack, X/Twitter and other relevant channels
Maintain a living editorial calendar
Develop explainer content (onboarding, how-to guides, network overviews)
Author strategy and narrative-focused pieces (architecture decisions, market structure, tokenized products)
Produce applied research and long-form analysis on blockchain/DeFi topics
Facilitate light distribution/coordination with external contributors for broader reach
What We’re Looking For
Significant solo long-form writing experience and the ability to ship quality work end-to-end, independently
Proven ability to interview technical/founder-level sources and synthesize multiple viewpoints along deeply technical topics
Clear and direct writing style that is able to make complex blockchain/DeFi concepts approachable without oversimplifying
Strong interest and knowledge in crypto, derivatives/options, tokenized assets, market structure, and emerging blockchain applications
Self-directed research and editorial process
Proactive about developing outlines, securing alignment, and gathering sources
Passion for the crypto/blockchain ecosystem and the opportunity to shape its narrative
Working Relationship
Work closely with Co-Founders and company leadership
Full-time, remote-friendly role; location-flexible; open to part-time
Not in Scope
No generic UGC/influencer/podcast mill marketing
Not managing a large content team or creating slide decks
No paid content/influencer campaigns
Why Unto Labs?
Play a central role in communicating and shaping the frontier of blockchain innovation
Define and own the editorial direction for a new Layer 1 with substance
Collaborate directly with a world-class founding team
Competitive compensation
- To Apply:
- Share samples of relevant long-form writing and a short note on what excites you most about telling the story of next-generation blockchains.
