Every day we interact with technologies controlled by a handful of large companies whose interests and incentives often conflict with our own
If we want the benefits of using their proprietary apps, we’re forced to agree to terms that most of us will never read, granting these companies far-reaching control over our digital lives
At the same time, progress in open-source and decentralized technologies like blockchain has shown that we can build systems that prioritize individual sovereignty over centralized control
With these new technologies, there’s no need to trust any third parties not to be or become evil
Parity Technologies is a team of the world’s premiere blockchain developers building industry-leading technologies that enable developers to create this next wave of better products and services
You’ll join at a critical moment when the future of the decentralized web is being shaped, and perform an influential role in making a more equitable society our future
