Proof of work

The team

Inky is a fast-paced, gamified consumer experience built around short-term outcomes, rapid feedback, and repeat play. It’s designed to feel more like a game than a financial tool. Trading is the underlying mechanic. Engagement is the point.

The foundations and core mechanics are already in place. This role owns getting Inky to early product-market fit through tight iteration and ruthless prioritization. In the process, you’ll help shape how Kraken builds high-frequency, gamified experiences across consumer products.

The opportunity

• Own Inky’s outcomes end-to-end, with a near-term mandate to drive usage, retention, and repeat engagement

• Design and tune core loops, incentives, and progression to maximize replayability

• Obsess over the primary interaction - speed, feedback, and emotional payoff

• Treat the product like a live game - ship, observe, tune, repeat

• Build and evolve lifecycle systems including notifications, reactivation flows, and behavioral nudges

• Use data to find drop-offs, friction, and leverage points

• Partner closely with Design, Engineering, Data, and Marketing to ship fast and learn faster

• Ruthlessly prioritize - if it doesn’t move engagement, it doesn’t ship

• Fix bugs and papercuts that break flow or trust

• Evolve mechanics to raise stakes, sharpen outcomes, and increase replayability

• Capture what works and apply it beyond Inky

Skills you should HODL

• 10+ years of product management experience, ideally in consumer, gaming, fintech, social, or crypto

• Proven track record driving product-led growth, not just shipping features

• Comfortable operating in ambiguity with real stakes and real constraints

• Strong intuition for user psychology, motivation and incentives

• Strong judgment under uncertainty, data-informed, but making calls with incomplete information

• Not precious about ideas - you test, learn, cut, and double down quickly

• Builder mindset, over consensus-seeking

Nice to haves

• Experience working on gaming products, onchain trading products, or other highly engaged consumer behavior

• Background in growth, engagement, or retention-focused roles

• Experience building for opinionated, internet-native users

• Familiarity with degen culture, social and memes
