About the Job

Cryptocurrency Engineer needed to build out a new proof-of-work protocol called "Proof-of-Story" for our digital economy Novestic (more information will be given in interview process). We plan on building the ecosystem on the Stellar blockchain.

This will be a 3-6 month interview process as the engineer will be rooming with 2 other founders in a house/apartment in the Bay Area for 1-2 years until an office is solidified.

Experience building Apps & Websites is a definite plus.

***Must live in the Bay Area. No Remote Positions.***
