ABOUT THE ROLE
We are looking for a visionary Product Director to lead the charge in building Mintlayer Web Services (MWS). Think of this as building AWS, but specifically architected for the Bitcoin ecosystem. You will bridge the gap between our high-performance Rust core node and the Go/JS service layer that will allow developers to deploy, scale, and manage decentralized applications with ease. As the Head of MWS, you will lead a multidisciplinary team of Go developers, AI specialists, and frontend engineers.
RESPONSIBILITIES
- Lead the MWS Roadmap: define the product strategy, requirements, and release cycles for our Go/JS-based web services
- Team Building: hire and mentor the MWS engineering team, including backend, frontend, and AI specialists
- Cross-Team Integration: act as the primary bridge between the Rust Core Node team and the MWS product layer
- Market Positioning: work with the Business Development team to manage quotations, enterprise onboarding, and competitive analysis
- UX/DX Oversight: ensure that the MWS Console and SDKs provide a world-class Developer Experience
REQUIREMENTS
- At least 8 years of experience in product management, with at least 3 years in a Director or Head of Product role within Cloud, SaaS, or Fintech
- Strong understanding of Go (Golang) and JavaScript/TypeScript ecosystems
- Deep understanding of the UTXO model, Atomic Swaps, and why building on Bitcoin is fundamentally different from EVM chains
- Strategic vision: ability to take a high-level concept and break it down into a phased, executable roadmap
- Exceptional written and spoken English
BENEFITS
- Health & Prevention: Comprehensive, high-tier medical insurance with a focus on preventative medicine, annual executive health screenings, and diagnostic check-ups.
- Fitness & Wellness Programs: Monthly fitness allowances for premier gyms and studios, plus internal wellness initiatives including yoga, ergonomics workshops, and stress management.
- Competitive Compensation: Salary paid in your choice of fiat, Bitcoin, or stablecoins. ML token allocation and vesting for senior roles.
- Relocation Support: Full assistance with UAE residency visas and relocation to Abu Dhabi for on-site roles. We handle the paperwork.
- Flexible Working: Structured flexibility across on-site, hybrid, and fully remote roles. Core overlap hours respected across time zones.
- Global Team Meetups: Periodic gatherings with the full team around the world. The remote team is never remote from the culture.
