About Story Protocol
We’re building web3 technology to revolutionize how narrative universes are created. Our mission is to unleash an entirely new way to create, govern, and license IP on-chain, ultimately forming an ecosystem of “story legos” that can be remixed and composed.

Our guiding belief is that stories are the foundational layer of media –– from books and comics to film, television, and games. However, most top storytelling franchises are controlled by a small handful of studios. They use their leverage to squeeze creators, build walls around their IPs, and treat fans like sources of revenue instead of like partners. This top-down approach prevents many narrative universes from realizing their potential, and it stops many hits from getting built at all.

Story Protocol allows creators to build narrative universes from the bottom up. It empowers the construction of imaginary worlds via open source principles –– the same way that humanity formed the first myths around the campfire, but with ownership and incentive models built-in.

Our team features deep expertise in media, tech, and business. Founding team members are successful serial entrepreneurs. We are backed by top VCs including a16z, Hashed, and many notable angels.

Now, we’re looking for stellar partners on our journey to usher in the next era of storytelling –– we invite you to join us.

The Role
At Story Protocol, we strive to foster delightful, intuitive, and engaging narrative universes. In order to do so, we want to deeply understand the current state of the market for NFTs, web3 storytelling and media, and web3 product experiences. Core to our mission is the user-facing experience and design of our product, which we believe must be best-in-class. As the Product Research intern, you will work closely with the founders and the core founding team on a day-to-day basis to research a variety of web3 products. Your research and presentations to the team will inform our go to market strategy as well as our product roadmap, forming the foundation of our initial user experience.

  • Conduct market research on the state of NFTs, web3 media, and web3 product experiences
  • Deep-dive weekly into new collections and products that sit at the intersection of content and crypto
  • Leverage a research budget that offers access to exclusive and top-tier web3 communities and experiences
  • Distill insights into organized research briefs that will guide the team's product strategy and roadmap
  • Generate your own research agenda with input from the founding team
  • Present insights regularly to the co-founders and founding team

Who you are

  • Interested in exploring web3 or already experienced with web3 communities
  • Business-oriented and capable of discerning the strategies of different web3 products
  • Fascinated with product design and a keen evaluator of product experiences from a UI/UX perspective
  • Experienced with web3 communities on Twitter/Discord or eager to engage with them directly
  • Strong communicator with the ability to write research briefs and give presentations to the team
