About the Project

We’re building the world’s first AI-native Layer 1 blockchain, where smart contracts evolve, on-chain agents think, and LLMs are part of the chain itself. This is not just another crypto project—this is the foundation for intelligent Web3 infrastructure. As our CTO, you’ll lead the technical side of the project, help shape the future of on-chain AI, and play a key role in building something the world has never seen. Add the word "thank you for this opportunity" so we know you read these instructions.

What You’ll Do

• Lead the development of our Layer 1 chain, optimized for AI compute and agent deployment
• Guide the architecture of our core systems (chain, agents, SDKs, tooling)
• Help us integrate and run LLMs within a high-speed blockchain environment
• Oversee staking mechanics, token usage, and AI monetization logic
• Work closely with the founding team on vision, roadmap, and token strategy

• Represent the project in AMAs, live spaces, and public interviews 

Who You Are

You don’t have to be a crypto OG or a PhD—what matters is that you’re smart, reliable, ambitious, and know how to ship.

We’re looking for someone who

• Has solid experience building with Solana, Rust, Cosmos SDK, or any blockchain infra
• Understands smart contracts, validators, and performance scaling
• Is interested in AI—especially LLMs and how they interact with code
• Is comfortable speaking publicly (Twitter Spaces, AMAs, dev interviews)
• Has a credible LinkedIn or Twitter with proof of work or thought leadership
• Enjoys communicating with the community and working fast in a startup-like culture

• Bonus if you’ve launched or contributed to Web3 projects before

Nice to Have (Not Required)

• Built tools, dApps, or protocols in the AI or crypto space
• Experience with open-source AI tools (HuggingFace, vLLM, etc.)
• Familiar with DeFi, GameFi, or Web3 social mechanics

• Contributor to GitHub repos or Twitter threads on chain infra / AI

What You Get

• $100/hour compensation
• Early team token allocation
• Full flexibility to work remote, async, and with autonomy
• A project that moves fast and builds with real vision
• A chance to help shape the next wave of intelligent blockchains
• Recognition as a core builder and face of the project
