  Compensation & Growth Path

  This is a part-time equity / token-based cofounder opportunity. You will receive equity in Launch Legends Autheo and the WFO Creator Network along with token allocations in the Autheo blockchain. THEO is already trading; this is an allocation in a live utility token not a promise against a future TGE. We have already completed an initial financing round to support infrastructure and marketing and are currently in discussions with VCs and crypto investors to fund expansion and salaries. Salaried compensation is expected to begin within 4 to 5 months following our node token sales or funding.

  ROLE: Grants Program Manager Autheo Foundation Live Mainnet Builder Grants

  About the Role

  The Grants Program Manager owns the Autheo Foundation grant program from intake to project close.

  Mainnet is up. DevHub is open. THEO is trading. The grant program is how the Foundation puts builders on that chain: contracts tooling identity marketplace services and infrastructure that a user can actually call. You are the primary contact for applicants the operator behind review and the person who can say what was awarded why and whether the milestone shipped.

  This sits at program operations builder relations and 501(c)(3) compliance. You do not own protocol exchange listings or the product roadmap. You do own the file: who applied who was funded what they owe and what the public can see.

  Part-time does not mean advisory. Equity cofounder means you run the program write the decisions down and close the grants.

  Key Responsibilities

  1. Grant lifecycle

  • Run the full path: application intake eligibility screening coordination of technical review Grant Committee approval award notification agreement execution milestone tracking and project close.
  • Keep one system of record for active grants upcoming milestones disbursement schedules and reporting deadlines. Comfortable range is 1540 concurrent grants.

  2. Applicants and grantees

  • Be the point of contact. Answer questions give written feedback and guide teams through review.
  • Recruit projects that match the current RFP: work that ships on Chain ID 2127 DevHub TheoID Marketplace or the post-quantum path. A deck about a future chain is not a fit.
  • Collect milestone reports. Escalate scope changes delays and compliance issues to the Grants Committee before the next disbursement.

  3. Committee legal and finance

  • Coordinate the Grant Committee Foundation Board and legal on agreement execution KYC/KYB and revocation if a grant has to be pulled.
  • Work with Finance and Operations so milestone payments go out on the written schedule not on a Slack reminder.

  4. Public record

  • Publish awarded grants and grantee milestone reports.
  • Own the quarterly transparency report: applications awards completion and what the ecosystem actually got.

  5. Program numbers

  • Track applications received awards made milestone completion time-to-decision and a short impact note tied to something on the live network (a contract a DevHub path a service) not a follower count.

  Qualifications

  Required

  • Managed a grants or nonprofit program preferably at a technology nonprofit a blockchain foundation or an open-source organization.
  • Project management that can hold 1540 grants at different stages without a second system in someones inbox.
  • Working knowledge of 501(c)(3) grant practice: written agreements milestone files and what has to be disclosed.
  • Enough technical fluency to read a blockchain proposal and sit with the protocol lead during review. You do not have to write the contract. You do have to know when the proposal does not match the chain.
  • Clear writing: grant feedback a rejection reason and a public program note.
  • KYC/KYB experience and comfort with international grantees.

  Preferred

  • A Web3 or crypto grant program you can name including how a grant was closed or pulled.
  • Smart-contract or protocol review experience.
  • A program you stood up not only one you inherited.
  • A habit of publishing the list.

  Not persuasive on its own

  • A claim that you scaled ecosystem growth with no awarded-grant list no agreement template and no closeout file.

  First 90 Days

  • A written program: RFP priorities against what is live eligibility rules review path and the Grant Committee calendar.
  • An agreement and milestone template legal will sign plus the KYC/KYB checklist.
  • The system of record in use even if the first cohort is small.
  • One public page of awarded grants or a dated note that none have been awarded yet.
  • A quarterly transparency outline the Foundation can publish without rewriting it.
