šŸš€ About Iron Key & Iron Key Capital
Iron Key, backed by Iron Key Capital, is a venture community and investment firm focused on liquid and venture opportunities in crypto, Web3, and AI. Our mission is to invest in and support Pre-Seed and Seed-stage startups, equipping founders and investors with the tools and knowledge they need to succeed.

We operate a blockchain innovation lab and incubate startups in venture infrastructure, fintech, IP ownership, and application development. Iron Key Capital is backed by 200+ global LPs, deploying $1M+ annually into emerging opportunities.

šŸ“¢ The Opportunity: Entrepreneur in Residence (EIR)
We are seeking a technical co-founder or EIR to help bring a newly incubated venture infrastructure product to market. This is a 3-month remote contract role, ideal for builders with Web3 and AI experience who want to launch a company with hands-on support.

Iron Key has developed proprietary AI tools for internal workflows and is exploring opportunities to externalize these as software-based consulting services or standalone software products. As an EIR, you’ll play a critical role in shaping, launching, and scaling these innovations.

  • Drive Innovation – Bring your own venture idea or work on an existing Iron Key product.

  • Strategic Execution – Develop and implement growth strategies.

  • Hands-on AI & Web3 Work – Build and iterate on cutting-edge solutions in AI and blockchain.

  • Leverage Resources – Work alongside investors, advisors, and a global network to accelerate your startup.

šŸŽÆ What We’re Looking For

  • Proven entrepreneurial experience – Ideally, you’ve built a startup before (even if it failed).

  • Deep Web3 or AI expertise – Hands-on experience in AI, blockchain, or fintech is a must.

  • Strong problem-solving mindset – Ability to pivot, adapt, and execute in fast-changing environments.

  • Leadership & Vision – You’re a self-starter who can drive a business forward.

šŸ”„ Why Join Iron Key?

  • Founder-Centric Program – Hands-on support to launch a company.

  • Unmatched Network – Access to top investors, mentors, and builders in crypto and AI.
