Who We Are

The Solana Foundation is a non-profit based in Zug, Switzerland, dedicated to the adoption, decentralization, and security of the Solana network.

We are looking for talented people who are willing to jump right in and use their expertise to help the ecosystem build.

What We Do

The Solana Foundation Product team is responsible for working with internal and external teams to build tooling, infrastructure and products that help builders create better applications across the ecosystem. The product team works full-stack to find solutions to acute problems and find collaboration opportunities to build standards, working groups and provision grants where appropriate.

The Opportunity
