About this role

Company Description

[REDACTED] is a crypto gaming experience powered by Solana, built with play-to-earn and a creator economy at the heart of its game loop

  • Use qualitative and quantitative methods to validate and improve work
  • Re-master the player experience and collaborate with Live-Community Designers and Community Members alike.
