Description
About the Company
Our client is a blockchain technology organisation developing digital asset ecosystems and decentralised applications. The company focuses on designing sustainable token economies that align user incentives, network participation, and long-term business objectives. Its multidisciplinary team combines blockchain engineering, economic research, data analysis, and product development.
Role Overview
We are seeking a Token Economist to design, analyse, and refine token economic models for blockchain-based products and protocols. The successful candidate will evaluate token supply mechanisms, distribution structures, utility, demand drivers, and incentive programmes to help establish sustainable and resilient digital asset ecosystems.
Working closely with product managers, blockchain engineers, researchers, and leadership, you will translate economic principles and quantitative analysis into practical tokenomics recommendations.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and evaluate tokenomics models for blockchain protocols, decentralised applications, and digital asset ecosystems.
- Develop economic frameworks covering token supply, issuance, distribution, vesting, utility, and demand.
- Build quantitative models to assess token circulation, incentive costs, participation levels, and long-term sustainability.
- Analyse the economic implications of staking rewards, transaction fees, governance mechanisms, and token-based incentives.
- Evaluate potential supply and demand imbalances and recommend mechanisms to improve economic resilience.
- Develop scenario analyses and sensitivity models to assess changes in user adoption, network activity, and token emissions.
- Collaborate with product and engineering teams to translate economic requirements into protocol specifications.
- Assess incentive alignment among users, validators, liquidity providers, developers, and other ecosystem participants.
- Review token allocation proposals, unlock schedules, and emissions policies.
- Monitor on-chain activity and economic indicators to identify changes in network behaviour.
- Prepare research reports, economic documentation, and recommendations for executive and technical stakeholders.
- Maintain clear records of assumptions, model limitations, and potential economic risks.
- Track developments in token design, decentralised governance, and blockchain economic research.
Requirements and Qualifications
- At least 3 years of experience in economics, quantitative research, financial modelling, tokenomics, or a related discipline.
- Strong understanding of token supply mechanisms, token utility, incentive structures, and blockchain ecosystems.
- Experience developing quantitative models using Python, R, Excel, or comparable analytical tools.
- Ability to conduct scenario analysis, sensitivity testing, and economic forecasting.
- Familiarity with blockchain fundamentals, smart contracts, staking, and decentralised applications.
- Strong analytical and statistical reasoning skills.
- Ability to explain complex economic concepts to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Experience working with on-chain data or blockchain analytics platforms is an advantage.
- Excellent written and spoken English.
- Strong documentation, collaboration, and independent problem-solving skills.
What We Offer
- Remote working opportunity from Estonia, subject to company policy.
- Competitive compensation based on experience and technical expertise.
- Opportunity to influence the economic design of blockchain products.
- Collaboration with multidisciplinary blockchain and research teams.
- Access to relevant analytical tools and data resources.
- Professional development in digital asset economics and protocol design.
Application Instructions
Interested candidates should submit an updated CV outlining their experience in economic modelling, quantitative analysis, and blockchain-related research. Applicants are encouraged to include examples of tokenomics models, research papers, analytical projects, or simulations that demonstrate their approach to designing sustainable token economies.
Equal Opportunity Statement: The employer is committed to fair and inclusive recruitment and evaluates applicants based on relevant qualifications, experience, and demonstrated capabilities.
