For the first time, they are ready to scale-up and they are searching for new members to join their team.The ideal candidates should be able to lead a feature from design to end-user. We are looking for strong developers that don't need to be given detailed instructions on how to design a feature but, instead, have the technical knowledge and experience to do so with just global direction.

Personality AttributesEager, curious, fast learnerIndependent, leader, team playerInterest in crypto and decentralizationStrong analytical and creative problem solving skills with a "get it done" mentality Company & ProductThey are raising their own cryptocurrency which will be used to drive the platform. Certain features are gonna require users to stake the company's token and tokens will be rewarded to use the platform. They have an NFT marketplace allowing creators to mint and list their NFTs directly from the platform. Not only that, they have a complete eco-system allowing them not just to sell their NFT, but also to maintain their community and manage their events such that these creators can curate and incentivize their communities to purchase those NFTs. Creators can import their communities directly from external integrations into the platform. So it is more than a dumb listing place. As an example, currently, a creator would list his NFT on A, his products at B, his streaming at C (Twitch/YouTube), his tickets at D, requiring them to use multiple platforms. This company tries to bring everything in a single platform. Furthermore, they help creators create their POAP token, meaning the guests of your experience can mint a free token indicating they attended your event. This way you have for example your own exclusive club and you can give benefits to the holders of this token. Furthermore, they will create a protocol, which is gonna be used to bridge the online web3 space with the offline world (we cannot say more about it right now), and will not only be used by users directly but also be offered as a service to other companies. Since from origin they are an offline-first platform working with events, they are gonna represent every event ticket by an NFT, thereby, representing the ownership and ticket holder on the blockchain. They will allow creators to raise their own social token backed by our own token which they can use in their own community, require/reward guests this social token when participating in the events hosted by the creator.
