Product Manager - Blockchain Apps

Spacemesh is a fairly-mined cryptocurrency and smart contracts platform built on a novel proof-of-space-time consensus protocol. Spacemesh is distributed as a public good and as open source software and is being built by a diverse and multinational remote team of designers, researchers, and developers.

We are developing a set of apps that make the core Spacemesh platform usable and accessible to everyone, including people without special technical skills. For example, the Spacemesh App makes it easy for anyone to run the full Spacemesh p2p software and to mine Spacemesh coins on a consumer-grade PC with just a few mouse clicks.

We are looking for a product manager to lead product development and project management of several apps built on the core Spacemesh platform. These apps include the Spacemesh App, SMRepl, a command line app for technical users, the Spacemesh Dashboard and the Spacemesh Explorer. This is a full time remote position reporting to the Spacemesh chief product officer and co-founder.
