Web3 IP & Loyalty Protocol
A venture-backed Web3 startup is building an Intellectual Property Operating System for programmable loyalty & tokenised brand ecosystems. The mission: enable global sports clubs, entertainment brands, and major IP holders to launch on-chain fan economies - without gambling mechanics - combining predictions, quests, rewards, drops, ticketing, and tokenised access into a single, scalable infra layer. The founding team is already in commercial discussions with major (Tier-1) sports organisations and global entertainment brands. Funding is expected in the a matter of weeks, not months. What’s missing is a technical co-founder who can turn ambition into architecture - and architecture into a live, secure, revenue-generating system. This is a true founding CTO role. The Opportunity: You will architect and build a hybrid Web2/Web3 infrastructure capable of supporting: • Brand tokens with real on-chain settlement • A hybrid AMM & orderbook exchange layer • Liquidity routing and market-making infra. • Tokenized rewards, staking, drops, auctions & loyalty mechanics • White-label mobile and web platforms for millions of users, many of which will not be crypto-native This is not a speculative DeFi project. It is a consumer-scale loyalty protocol that must satisfy: 1. Tier-1 global brands (risk-sensitive, compliance-aware) 2. Crypto-native liquidity and settlement logic 3. Mainstream fans with zero Web3 literacy You will unify those worlds into one coherent system. What You’ll Own: Protocol & Exchange Architecture • Design and deploy hybrid AMM / orderbook infrastructure • Liquidity pools, routing, staking and rewards mechanics • Token standards and governance primitives Smart Contracts • Production Solidity contracts (auditable, secure, upgrade-aware) • Liquidity mining, staking, tokenomics • Audit coordination and security-first design Wallet & Custody Abstraction • Smart accounts or MPC wallet infrastructure • Fiat on/off-ramps • UX abstraction for non-crypto users Platform & Consumer Layer • Engagement engine (predictions, quests, missions) • Rewards systems (drops, auctions, exclusive access) • Commerce integrations (ticketing, merchandise, points redemption) • White-label mobile (React Native or Flutter) & web Technical Leadership • Define core architecture from first principles • Make “build vs buy” decisions • Hire and lead the engineering team • Represent technical credibility in investor and partner diligence What Success Looks Like: First 90 Days • Translate vision into a clear, opinionated architecture • Deliver prototype components demonstrating execution capability • Establish security and economic primitives early • Instil technical confidence in partners & investors alike First 12 Months • Launch at least one flagship IP partner live • Deliver stable on-chain settlement infrastructure • Ship Web2-smooth UX at scale • Build a small, high-performance team of engineers Long term, you evolve from founder-builder into system owner as the company scales post-Series A. Technical stack includes: • Solidity (advanced), Foundry/Hardhat • TypeScript/JavaScript • Rust / Go • Python • GCP, Docker/Kubernetes • PostgreSQL, Redis, event streaming • Mobile frameworks (React Native or Flutter) Experience bridging protocol infrastructure to consumer applications is highly valuable. Who This Suits: • A (snr.) protocol engineer ready to become a technical co-founder • A DeFi architect who wants to apply token mechanics to real-world IP • A Web3 founder whose previous venture plateaued but who wants another swing • Someone comfortable operating in ambiguity before funding certainty You must be capable of operating at high intellectual altitude while still writing production code. Compensation • Founding equity (can be 10%+ for the right candidate) • Role can begin on a fractional basis if you prefer (up to 20 hours/week) • Transition to full-time offers base salary of up to $250k + wider benefits • Full ownership of technical direction • Remote-first (UAE, Europe, or US East Coast preferred time zones) This is a rare opportunity to build foundational infrastructure at the intersection of global IP, loyalty economics, and Web3 finance - from zero to mainnet. If you’re ready to architect a system that could underpin the next generation of brand economies, let’s chat.
