The Challenge
Maple were looking to migrate from MVP into a robust, scalable product by building out their engineering function to help facilitate their growth.
The Solution
In order to achieve Maple’s hiring goals, we dedicated one principal consultant and four members of our delivery team to oversee the hiring process. Our experts were on hand to pre-screen candidates, ensure they were interviewed quickly to ensure that candidates weren’t taken off the market.
We hired a number of key positions, including: Head of Smart Contracts, Smart Contract Engineer and further helped facilitate the hire of a Web3 Frontend Engineer.
The Result
With these key hires, Maple’s development accelerated and they sit comfortably as a blue-chip protocol, having delivered close to $1.5 billion in loans, as well as TVL of $900 million.
