## Location Remote / Global ## Type Full-time / Part-time ## Stage Early-stage (MVP → Scale) ## Role Overview We’re looking for a **Web3-native Product Manager** to drive the design and execution of a **DePIN-based, AI-enabled infrastructure platform**. This role focuses on defining system architecture, product mechanics, and execution frameworks for a decentralized, multi-sided network that coordinates real-world services through software. You will operate close to engineering and architecture, translating protocol-level and system-level constraints into shippable product components. ## Core Responsibilities ### Product & System Architecture - Own the product roadmap with a strong emphasis on **technical feasibility and system design**. - Define boundaries between **on-chain, off-chain, and hybrid components**. - Translate decentralized network concepts into concrete product abstractions and APIs. ### DePIN Mechanics - Design and iterate on: - Provider onboarding and verification flows - Reputation, scoring, and trust mechanisms - Network topology and corridor-based rollout - Specify incentive and coordination mechanisms (tokenized or non-tokenized). - Define observability and health metrics for decentralized networks. ### MVP Definition & Delivery - Define MVP scope at the **system and component level**. - Break down complex workflows into services, pipelines, and interfaces. - Own release sequencing and dependency management across teams. ### Engineering Collaboration - Work daily with backend, AI, and Web3 engineers. - Write technical PRDs, schemas, and flow definitions. - Participate in architectural reviews and trade-off decisions. - Ensure alignment between product intent and technical execution. ### Experimentation & Iteration - Design experiments around: - Centralized vs decentralized execution paths - Automation vs human-in-the-loop systems - Network reliability and failure handling - Use telemetry and system metrics to inform roadmap decisions. ## Requirements ### Must-have - **3+ years as a Product Manager in Web3**. - Experience shipping technically complex, distributed or network-based products. - Strong understanding of: - DePIN architectures - Web3 primitives (wallets, signatures, identity, smart contracts) - Off-chain orchestration and data pipelines - Comfortable working with early-stage, evolving architectures. ### Nice-to-have - Experience with marketplaces, infra products, or protocol-adjacent platforms. - Exposure to AI/ML systems, copilots, or automation pipelines. - Experience collaborating on tokenomics, governance, or incentive design. ## Profile & Mindset - Systems-first thinker with strong technical intuition. - Comfortable discussing architecture, trade-offs, and failure modes. - Pragmatic about decentralization vs. reliability. - Bias toward shipping infrastructure that can scale.
