The Pilot League initiative passed the Temperature Check and we now can move on to build the Committeeās team members.
The initial idea was discussed in this post, and the set parameters has been formalized and voted by the community here
The Pilot League has been the first iteration of Idle Leagues, a self-directed, global, and increasingly decentralized organization. We then unveiled our plan for a nested subDAOs structure embodying different departments (communications, development, legal) one month later.
We are excited to take this initiative forward and implement this initial component to facilitate community governance and start to incrementally build an organizational structure for the Idle community. We are keen to see applications from our community (and any DeFi builder or founder is definitely welcomed) and collaborate with project managers and supervisors.
Dev specs:
-
Mandate Budget: $ 20,000 in ETH for operations
-
Mandate Duration: 3 months since membersā election via snapshot poll;
-
Budget Management: 2-of-3 MultiSig wallet. One key per member (Supervisor and Developers).
Open roles:
-
2 full-time developers (part-time possible)
-
1 Supervisors
Developer (Dev)
Responsibilities:
-
Build new Idle strategies
-
Deploy IIPs and contracts approved by the Governance
-
Perform security reviews
-
Provide technical feedback on community discussions and new technologies
Monthly Compensation:
Role | Fixed salary | Bonus |
---|---|---|
Senior Dev level 2 | $10-11 | 200 $IDLE |
Senior Dev level 1 | $8-9k | 150 $IDLE |
Mid-level Dev | $6-7k | 100 $IDLE |
Junior Dev | $4-5k | 50 $IDLE |
Contributors would receive their fixed salary according to the following composition: 50% in ETH/stablecoins, 50% in unlocked $IDLE.
The $IDLE bonus would be accessible with a 3-month linear unlock only if the contributor continues to work in the next mandate.
Seniority Guidelines:
-
Senior Dev level 2: 7+ years of experience in computer science/software engineering, with 3+ years of provable experience in DeFi/Solidity development.
-
Senior Dev level 1: 7+ years of experience in computer science/software engineering, with 1-2 years of provable experience in DeFi/Solidity development.
-
Mid-level Dev: 3-7 years of experience in computer science/software engineering, with up to 1 year of provable experience in DeFi/Solidity development.
-
Junior Dev: Less than 3 years of experience in computer science/software engineering, with up to 6 months of provable experience in DeFi/Solidity development.
In general, these guidelines help candidates to better position themselves and give Leagues members a starting point for shaping out the compensation plan and workflow. Yet, experience and area of expertise have marginal importance when building complex projects from scratch, particularly in an experimental space like DeFi. What does matter is a burning desire to learn more, constantly improve yourself, and solve tricky problems on a daily basis. We are looking for people from finance, marketing, business, and product development. However, as we took an incrementally growing structure for Idle Leagues, you can assure yourself that whatever you contribute (in terms of an engineer or otherwise) is always heard and discussed.
Selected applicants will enter a 3-week sprint phase, where they would receive the midpoint compensation for their seniority level. After this bootstrap sprint, Supervisors will define the final compensation package. In this timeframe, SVs have the right to upgrade/downgrade if itās clear that the proposed seniority level is not matched.
