Context:
We’re working with a company that’s building a management sim (think sim city) on top of solana in which NFTs represent unique in game assets. The idea is to convert the pay to play model that’s worked so well for blockbuster mobile titles into an online economy in which top users can generate income in exchange for the work they’re putting into the community.
They have some unique ops and persistence related challenges given what they’re building and are looking for a principal engineer who can come in and help support their existing team of three, particularly on the backend, as they work towards launch.
