We're making the world of digital assets accessible and secure for everyone. Join the mission. 

Founded in 2014, Ledger is the global platform for digital assets and Web3. Over 15% of the world’s crypto assets are secured through our Ledger Nanos. Headquartered in Paris and Vierzon, with offices in the UK, US, Switzerland and Singapore, Ledger has a team of more than 550 professionals developing a variety of products and services to enable individuals and companies to securely buy, store, swap, grow and manage crypto assets – including the Ledger hardware wallets line with more than 5 millions units already sold in 180 countries.  

At Ledger, we embody the values that make us unique: Pragmatism, Audacity, Commitment, Trust, and Transparency. Have a look at our Origins video here

The Consumer Services organization is responsible for bringing all web3 services to Ledger users, so a user can safely buy, swap or sell its crypto from Ledger Live. However, Ledger isn’t an exchange and will never be. Instead, we’re partnering with service providers whose job it is to provide exchange services, the goal being to create a one-stop shop for everything crypto.
If you’re passionate about crypto, DeFi and staking, have an opinion between decentralized exchanges and centralized exchanges, or are a weekend crypto trader, this role is for you.
