Director of Quantitative Token Engineering at ConsenSys

What You’ll Do

• Lead the team responsible for the design, modeling, and implementation of several token engineering projects.
• Work independently and with ConsenSys teams to identify the objective functions of tokens, compare existing mechanisms, build out key learnings, and test new designs through simulations
• Continuously advance the team’s expertise of token engineering and be a thought leader throughout the organization by publishing research and developing analytical reports about new or existing protocols.
• Lead token ideation, whitepaper development, and core research around investments and treasury management.
• Model and calculate token financials, sensitivity, transaction amounts, supply, and other quantitative requirements.
• Build out economic structures, and run simulations to examine different outcomes.
• Support other teams by exploring tokenomics and designs of specific protocols

Would be great if you brought this to the role

• Experience in token engineering and token modeling (e.g. cadCAD, Gauntlet, Machinations), particularly agent simulations, mechanism design, and systems design
• Deep subject matter expertise of Layer 1s, Layer 2s, bridges, stablecoins, DeFi protocols (e.g. Aave, Uniswap, Curve), and Web3 infrastructure (e.g. RPCs)
• Extensive knowledge of new and existing token models such as voting escrow mechanisms, gauges, buy back and burn initiatives, and liquid staking derivatives.
• Subject matter expertise of transaction flow, block proposing, block building, and MEV Experience analyzing secondary market activity of tokens and understanding how traditional macroeconomics impacts Web3 markets.
• Experience with DAO governance and tooling (e.g. Snapshot, Gnosis) and NFT primitives (e.g. utility-enabled NFTs)
• Passionate about emerging primitives such as restaking and interchain security
• Ability to work remotely, independently, and collaboratively in a team
• Proactive problem-solving aptitude and willingness to be hands-on when required
• Excellent writing, editing, and presentational skills in English
• Knowledge of Python, Etherscan, and Dune (or other on chain querying tools)required.
