**The Mandate:**
We are not building an app. We are building a Digital Nation with its own GDP. We are looking for a
**Monetary Architect**
to design the economic engine of Pedestal. You will define the laws of physics for our ecosystem. You will control the supply, the demand, and the velocity of value. Your goal is to engineer a system that incentivizes long-term retention and prevents "mercenary capital" from extracting value. You are the invisible hand.

**Role Summary:**
You will design the
**"Sink & Faucet"**
mechanics. You will answer critical questions:
*How do we balance inflation with utility? What is the mathematical relationship between platform revenue and token value?*
You will model these systems in spreadsheets/simulations, stress-test them against hyper-inflation, and hand the blueprint to the engineers to build.

**Key Responsibilities:**

- **Economic Modeling:**
Build complex Monte Carlo simulations to predict how the economy behaves over 1, 5, and 10 years. Prove that the model is sustainable.
- **Incentive Engineering:**
Design the "Game Theory" of the platform. How do we mathematically bribe High-Value Mentors to stay? How do we punish bad actors without banning them?
- **Liquidity Strategy:**
Design the bonding curves and liquidity mining programs. Decide how much APY we pay to "rent" liquidity versus "owning" it.
- **Governance Design:**
Create the voting systems. Who holds power? How do we prevent a hostile takeover by whales?
- **Crisis Management:**
Act as the "Fed Chair." If the token crashes, you propose the monetary intervention (buybacks, burns, parameter tweaks).

**Who You Are:**

- **The Mastermind:**
You understand Nash Equilibriums, Prisoner’s Dilemmas, and Mechanism Design.
- **Background:**
PhD in Economics, Ex-Game Designer (MMORPG economies like EVE Online), or a DeFi Architect who built a Top-100 protocol.
- **Tool Stack:**
You are a wizard in Excel, Python (for modeling, not dev), or Machinations.io.
- **Psychologist:**
You understand that economics is just quantified human behavior. You know how to trigger FOMO and how to induce HODLing.
- **No Dev Required:**
You write the equations; developers write the code.

**Compensation:**

- **Base Salary:**
**CHF 150,000 – CHF 220,000 per year**
(Gross).
- **Token Allocation:**
Significant % of the total supply
- **Legacy:**
You get to design an economy from scratch.
