About Turnkey

Turnkey is developer-first infrastructure for private key management, making it simple to create wallets, sign transactions, and automate on-chain actions through one elegant API, without ever exposing sensitive key material. Founded by the team who scaled Coinbase Custody from zero to a $100M+ ARR business and helped protect over $100B in crypto assets, Turnkey is tackling crypto security at its foundational level. Our mission is to make strong cryptography the default across the open internet the same way AWS made scalable computing the default for software.

Our team is low-ego, high-agency, and high-autonomy, with a significant amount of combined experience in cryptography, security, and low-level systems. We're building the trustless, programmable infrastructure that will power the next wave of mass-market crypto applications and we're looking for people who want to shape what that future looks like.
