About the role/company:

Unique blockchain assets ("NFTs") have grown in popularity rapidly over the past few months. These unique assets allow people to own anything from in-game items to digital art to music and financial instruments.

However, they are highly illiquid: transactions take minutes or hours to confirm, and Ethereum can process fewer than 5 NFTs per second for the whole world combined. To solve this problem for ourselves and for others, we have built Immutable X, a next-generation protocol for trading blockchain assets with instant trade confirmation, massive scalability, and no gas fees without compromising user custody. The goal of Immutable X is to help businesses scale their creation and trading of these unique assets (“NFTs”).

We are searching for a Head of Blockchain to ensure we remain at the forefront of the NFT ecosystem. You will report directly to the CTO, and be responsible for helping to shape our product and engineering roadmap for everything blockchain-related, across our games and our platform.

Work in one of the most exciting verticals in crypto

Partner with the top scaling companies in the Ethereum ecosystem
Work with the most significant NFT projects in the space

Take on a leadership role within the company

In this role you will:

Contribute to all blockchain product decisions and map a long term strategy for Immutable in the ecosystem
Advocate for decentralization and user custody internally
Create tools to help yourself and others build better blockchain products
Validate blockchain-related technical decisions
Conduct internal training and education on blockchain practices and processes
Ensure Immutable remains at the cutting edge of blockchain & NFT technology

What you will need:

Prior experience in a professional capacity in Ethereum
A technical background as an engineer
A deep understanding of the crypto ecosystem and twittersphere
Familiarity with Ethereum development and the blockchain ecosystem
A product background and ability to effectively prioritise features and offerings
To be an advocate for blockchain-literacy within Immutable
