gm Product Hunters! 👋 It's hard to believe it's been 4 years since the first launch of Crypto Jobs List on Product Hunt in 2017! In crypto, 4 years is something like 15 in the… in the NGMI world ;) Okie, let’s get to it: 🌱 How it started I started Crypto Jobs List because I was looking for a job in crypto. It’s 2017, I’m heartbroken and burnt out by my 4 years of failed startups. I was done with entrepreneurship and needed a job. Crypto was going back up, was still early and confusing, yet I felt like if I’m gonna get back to being a salaryman I better be early. Finding a job in crypto was hard. LinkedIn was a mess, RemoteOk for crypto didn’t exist, Indeed had military cryptography PhD jobs… So inspired by @levelsio's success I decided to give it a go. I kept my expectations super low and started Crypto Jobs List almost as a joke that will surely fail. Two days of code and a Google Form to submit jobs. That’s it. But the timing was right somehow and it took off 🚀 How it’s going Today, I'm excited to launch Crypto Jobs List 3.0 - which is a result of continuous improvement over the past 4 years, as well as a few new products & features added to it. Here we go: - 🙋‍♂️👩‍💻 Talent List — create your professional profile and let top Crypto and Web3 companies reach out to you, instead of you chasing them. We are working on making it crypto-native and have some crypto-only fields on your resume, that would help you showcase your journey and experience in crypto. Things like: the year you joined crypto, which coin communities you follow and more. We already have a few thousand subscribers and welcome PH community to join and give it a try! - 💰💸 Web3 Salaries — Navigating compensation in the metaverse crypto wild west + being remote ain’t easy. So I've built a salary submission and benchmarking tool. Anyone can anonymously submit their salary, and in return get full access to other salary submissions. No cookies or other shady tracking mechanisms. I generate a unique token, keep it in local storage, and only request salaries with it. Try it out! There are now 1114 approved salaries across tech and non-tech roles to compare against. - 💬 Community - I was scared to launch this, fearing moderation-hell and added anxiety to my daily BUIDling, but here we are - please welcome to our Discord where we connect, chat about working in crypto, community management, content, engineering and more. - 📝 Open Source - what fun is it to write all the code by yourself and not learn from others? Especially in web3. We are slowly but surely open sourcing all the things and started with i18n a.k.a. internationalization - 🌚 Dark Mode - I just couldn’t announce CJL 3.0 without it! 🛠️ How is it built My initial tech stack was a server-side rendered Sails.js written in CoffeeScript with a sprinkle of jQuery to capture emails and animate text. Hosted on Heroku and MongoDB as storage. That went well, companies submitted jobs, people applied, google was happy… Then I moved to React on Parcel.js + SemanticUI hosted on Netlify - Google was not happy. And finally, in 2020, I did a complete rewrite of everything and moved to Next.js + Tailwind CSS . The bottom line here is - pick a tech you are familiar with and is good for the job. CoffeeScript/JavaScript/TypeScript is my lingua franca so that’s what I went with. If you are in love with js/ts, react and building front ends like me, my only piece of advice is to religiously keep track of your web vitals, build size, and crawlability from day 0. Ideally, set up tests, so you don’t ship code to prod that gets you out of the green zone. Make sure your js/css is treeshaken and minified, and HTML is server-side generated and served. If I were to start from scratch today, I’d probably go with full-on typescript, Next.js, TailwindCSS + postgress on Supabase or something like Directus or Strapi. Definitely would love to try Supabase (Beta) by @copple Images are generated by fellow Product Hunter @arminulrich and his product Placid . Zapier is really useful. Even if you can code everything yourself, don’t! Use as much no-code as you can. I use Zapier to trigger 3rd party integrations faster. Things like posts on LinkedIn, Insta, Twitter, etc… Check out @bentossell, if you don’t know him yet - huge inspiration for what’s possible with no-code and low-code approach. 🥰 Thank you all for your support I strongly believe that if you are into crypto long-term, the best thing you can do is to not just HODL, but actually BUIDL. And you don't have to be technical to be part of it all and help move this community upward. If you are not into crypto, I hope there is some inspiration here somewhere, mistakes to avoid and lessons to learn! Feel free to ask me questions, would love to share as much as I can. Uponly 🚀 p.s. Special thanks to @nextgenguy @Peiman @Farhan @seb2point0 @serrynaimo @JoshuaHay @adam_seoptimer and many others for help and support, feedback over the years!

congrats @ksaitor !! amazing how big cryptojobslist became 🤯 I noticed that you allow payment in BTC/ETH - do you see an increasing number of postings being paid with crypto currency in 2021?

Hey @ksaitor, I have something I've been thinking about. Crypto Jobs List has two products now. One is where Employers post jobs and people apply to them. The other is Talent List, where people can showcase their skills and employers can directly recruit them. This is like two opposite ways of employing and getting employed. Which do you think works better for both sides?

This is my goto place for hiring. Keep it up Raman. wagmi

So far the best crypto job board out there. I like it even better with the added features

Congrats, Roman! Do you want to make it different from other crypto job boards? How?
