Professional Background:

  1. Current Occupation: Den is the fastest multisig for onchain teams, powered by Safe
  2. Relevant Work/Educational Experience (Please list any relevant experience in governance, DAOs, and multi-sig operations):
    a. We develop the UI proposed for signers to use in the RFC [RFC] Arbitrum Multi-sig Support Service (MSS)
    b. We are active SafeDAO delegates with a public voting history (find our votes here: x.com). Our delegate addresses are jgov.onchainden.eth, igov.onchainden.eth

Technical Skills:

  1. List any technical skills that are relevant to multi-sig operation:
    a. Experience securely creating and signing multisig transactions across several organizations managing tens of millions of dollars
    b. Developed Den, a popular web application that directly interfaces with the Safe multisignature wallet and has processed almost $900M in volume
    c. Deployed Safe multisignature wallet infrastructure for various chains, including Arbitrum Nova, Arbitrum Sepolia, and Orbit Chains in collaboration with the Arbitrum Foundation

  2. Experience with EVM that makes you well suited for this program (SAFE, Using a module, etc):
    a. See points from technical skills response as they are also relevant EVM experience
    b. Completed Secureum smart-contract auditing bootcamp (several team members)

Conflict of Interest Declaration:

  1. Have you been involved in any projects or proposals funded by the DAO? If yes, please specify. No
  2. Do you have any interests that might be seen as a conflict of interest if you are selected as a multi-sig signer?
    a. Developer of the software the RFC advocates that signers use for creating and signing Safe multisig transactions. We were invited to apply to this position due to this conflict. We are in a unique position to prioritize the DAO’s needs and resolve potential issues.
    b. Deployed Safe for Arbitrum Nova, Arbitrum Sepolia, and Orbit Chains in collaboration with the Arbitrum Foundation

Motivation:

  1. Why are you interested in joining the MSS and what do you believe you can contribute to the MSS?
    a. Participating as multisig signers in external organizations allows us to improve Den by dogfooding our product with meaningful activity beyond our internal transactions.
    b. Our contributions will be as active signers. We will sign both with urgency and caution. We are well-equipped to validate that transactions are secure and match intended outcomes.
