Tal Broda, vice president of engineering at cryptocurrency and Web3 protocol investment firm Paradigm, has left the company, according to an internal memo he sent to colleagues at the end of last month.

“While I believe strongly in Paradigm’s mission and the company’s ability to execute on its vision, I have decided that leading engineering here at Paradigm is not the right fit for me at this stage,” Broda wrote.

Paradigm has lost a handful of engineers since around the end of last year. The crypto market downturn has led to a scaling back of certain internal engineering projects at the firm, according to a Paradigm spokeswoman.

Broda, who joined Paradigm a year back in April 2022, said he would remain until mid-March to help transition day-to-day management of the engineering team.
