Founded by seasoned software architects and backed by top-tier investors such as a16z, Blockchain Capital, and Union Square Ventures, Matter Labs is the core team behind ZKsync.
ZKsync is a credibly neutral, fully open-source technology stack and network on top of Ethereum, which is owned and governed by its community. We use advanced cryptography called zero-knowledge proofs to scale Ethereum infinitely without compromising security or decentralization. With a world-class team, a community of over 1M supporters across Twitter + Discord, and hundreds of millions $ in funding, we have abundant resources to accomplish the mission.
We believe freedom drives progress and prosperity. We not a company, but a team aligned around a single mission: to advance personal freedom for all (see ZK Credo).
This could take years, but we’re all in it for the long haul. Check out our Team Handbook to understand how we operate and plan to get there.
We value a high degree of responsibility and ownership: every task, project, or area of expertise has exactly one owner. The team is run by results, not hierarchy, and the best ideas win.
Perfectionism should not stand in the way of frequent releases. We’re always looking for ways to ship at speed without compromising security, reliability and maintainability of our code.
