Proof of Humanity (PoH) is looking to hire a Product Manager. However, we believe PoH requires a team of dedicated individuals to carry on the mission of providing equal opportunities for all humans.
To provide some context, a Product Manager works around 50 hours a week and earns around 100K-120K a year.
As PoH is a young purpose-driven community, it needs to focus on growing and achieving its first foundational milestones. This is only possible when its core team is passionate and committed to its cause. Therefore, we believe it will be more valuable for the PoH community to hire a team composed of 4 Product Managers plus 1 Project Manager for the price of one product manager. In this way, the team would be able to deliver an average of 150 hours a week of high commitment (30 hours/week per person * 5 people).
We are asking for 120K USD/year, to be distributed within a team of 5 people, all paid in UBI.
We commit to turn 30% of our salaries into DAI to stake them in the Yearn Vault for at least 6 months to contribute to the price stability of UBI.
The proposed working scheme is the following:
- The cycle begins by working on one single product approved by the PoH DAO.
- Its Proof of Concept (functional prototype) is developed.
- Product co-produced by all UBI members. Coordinated by the core team, with weekly reporting to the community.
- Once the product is consolidated, a new cycle may begin.
PLUS
- Assistance to the community proposals that require knowledge on product design, prototyping, and development monitoring*.
*Up to the team’s bandwidth availability and in order of community prioritization.
Regarding the team:
Business Manager: Humberto Besso Oberto
Technical Manager: Ryan Cwynar
Design Manager: Cami Arias
Growth Manager: Anna Kaic
What relevant experience has this team for PoH and UBI? And why is this job position meaningful for us?
Humberto: In Mexico, my experience developing social enterprises focusing on community participation gave my team and me the 2030 Citizen Ambassador recognition by the United Nations.
Product Management-wise, my biggest client, was the Federal Electrical Commission (CFE) in Mexico. My appointment was: “Make the working division profitable”. My team and I developed an energy service project that drove 50.4 million USD. Additionally, I was assigned two other projects. One to save 11 energy plants from being privatized, and the other to re-activate another working division losing 2M USD a month. Working within these projects gave me two important lessons. One, that everything is achievable by finding legal holes. And two, working with passionate people is fun, makes everyone feel unstoppable, and gives a sense of fulfillment when achieving goals for the general interest.
Why is it meaningful for me to be part of the PoH Product team?
I publicly committed to facilitating shared prosperity worldwide around 200 days ago in my personal YouTube channel. Every day I dedicate my life to learn, apply, and connect with causes and people that take me closer to that goal. I believe PoH is the right path to make this happen. I will dedicate my entire focus to achieving world coverage and price stability.
Anna: In Russia, I contributed to the communication strategy for facilitating the implementation of a novel financial mechanism regarding the SDG 2: Zero Hunger.
In Croatia, I was in charge of developing market research and strategy for Hrana i Zajednica to bypass the barriers that retail food chains encountered when donating food to public kitchens. This marketing strategy is still being used across the country/region of Primorsko Goranska.
Why is it meaningful for me to be part of the PoH Product team?
I truly believe that for making the UBI successful, there is a need to gain trust from people, which can be done through the right communication and marketing.
I believe that PoH and UBI will open the path for humanity to reach the next level of sovereignty. Investing in putting equal starting opportunities for all will bring brilliant talents that otherwise wouldn’t have the means to contribute to societal global progress. Let’s onboard everyone on the train of equal possibilities!
Ryan: I’m a programmer, and over the past year, I’ve become increasingly more inspired by the concepts of using software to improve governance and help communities solve common goods problems, which used to be the sole domain of governments and large organizations.
More recently, I’ve gotten involved with members of the Proof of Humanity DAO to develop concepts to bolster the value of the UBI token and to develop solutions to the adoption hurdles that will be faced when everyone, especially the people most in need, starts trying to understand how to interact with web3 tools.
Why is it meaningful for me to be part of the PoH Product team?
I believe PoH had the right idea to pick UBI as the first initiative for the global common goods problem with universal appeal. There are many more like helping communities pool funds for schools, infrastructure, or whatever else they decide they need.
UBI is the gateway initiative that will motivate people from all walks of life to understand web3 technology and become comfortable with these new collective decision-making tools, which will have a greater positive impact on our world beyond almost any other change I can imagine.
Cami: I’m a bit of a jack of all trades, with a background on electronics, multimedia design, marketing strategy and community management, especially in decentralised teams, but my main skills are around UI/UX and Graphic Design. I enjoy doing a variety of things so this background allows me to help teammates in small teams.
I’ve volunteered in several organisations throughout my life, either in my country, Argentina, or remotely. Lately, through volunteering on CareDAO I’ve discovered the blockchain space and I’m already involved in several initiatives and I’m fully convinced the knowledge and tools that are being developed should be extended to people everywhere to improve their quality of life and empower them to live and sustain themselves in a healthier way.
Why is it meaningful for me to be part of the PoH Product team?
Being from Argentina I’m very familiar with society’s struggles due to poor government leadership. People can create better solutions for others to live and thrive without depending on whoever got picked to be part of sometimes corrupt governments that don’t care about the people. PoH seems to be a powerful initiative to bring those solutions to people everywhere, and like other innovative, it can be difficult for people to get it right away, so I’d love to develop products that power up the value that PoH provides and makes it friendlier for people to access these better tools and methodologies. Specifically with this proposed product, since I see people around me everyday struggling and spending so much time trying to get by finding ways to sustain themselves on top of all the limitations the government puts on us.
Finally, there are three things to be said:
One. There is room for a Project Manager to join the team. If the PoH DAO chooses us, we will hire the second most voted PM to the team (if it complies with the working proposition of hour commitment and paycheck acceptance).
Two. We cover English, Spanish, Italian, and Croatian speaking cultures.
Three. The team members are very active in the community. We have read and engaged in community proposals, and from the active listening, we propose to work on the following goals:
- Reach the 10,000 registered people aimed by PoH with a focus on those below the poverty line.
- Drive stabilization of the UBI token price.
- Simplify the user experience when registering in PoH.
- Simplify the use of the UBI for covering daily human needs.
- Simplify volunteering to the PoH community proposals.
- Simplify tax-related issues.
- Facilitate community-based proposals for the good of all.
The team already works on two ideas that have been recognized as valuable by the community. Check Twiter (crypto-debit card and yearn vault burning mechanism).
