This role requires previous experience leading engineering teams but does NOT require previous work in blockchain or smart contract development. We are interested in someone who can lead while we get you up to speed on the core technology.

You take pride in your work and know what it means to deliver high-quality products.

• Ability to self-manage when given prioritized goals and objectives.

Bonus Attributes:

Note: This is a leadership position for blockchain and smart contract technology development but requires only an interest in blockchain, smart contracts, and solidity development. We are looking for a technology leader who has brought technology to market and wants to broaden their knowledge base to include the exciting world of blockchain and smart contract development.

Laguna Games is the developer of Crypto Unicorns, a new blockchain-based game centered around awesomely unique Unicorn NFTs that players use in a fun farming simulation and in a variety of exciting battle loops. As game developers, we are excited to move away from the extractive nature of Free-2-Play to foster and nurture community-run game economies. Crypto Unicorns is our first digital nation and we are extremely excited to build it in tandem with our player community!

We are headquartered in San Francisco, CA but operate as a remote company with locations around the world. We offer competitive compensation along with health benefits (medical, dental, and vision), 401k retirement savings, open paid time off, and a remote work support stipend.
