Reports To: CEO
What You Put In Is What You Get Out
This is a founding-level scientific command role focused on developing breakthrough technologies that push the boundaries of what’s possible—across AI, simulation, cryptography, entropy, and future-facing infrastructure.
As Chief R&D Scientist, you are the guardian of invention and the architect of possibility. Your mission is to imagine and realize the next layer of human-machine synergy through radically original code, methods, and systems.
Minimum commitment: 20 hours/week. If that isn’t sustainable, this isn’t your lab.
This is an equity partner role. That means:
- No upfront cash compensation
- Equity (shares) at founding partner level (vesting standard)
- Future token-based rewards (pending legal review)
- Salary activates with revenue-based milestones
- Remote-first, async-native, velocity-driven execution model
This is not an R&D oversight role with roadmaps handed to you.
This is not a low-risk lab appointment inside a legacy structure.
You will define our research frontier—across logic, data, simulation, and post-blockchain security.
You will build from zero: languages, frameworks, entropy models, and cognition engines.
You will lead a future-defining team of scientific and algorithmic pioneers.
We are recruiting a Chief Research & Development Scientist to lead the R&D team at Anime Universe.
You will be responsible for architecting the systems, theories, and frameworks behind:
- Post-blockchain, high-entropy infrastructure
- Proprietary protocols for secure communication and dynamic consensus
- Custom file standard for ultra-secure data expression
- Our native meta-language for simulation and AI
- High-complexity authentication + resistance systems
- Dynamic, self-evolving logic engines
- Define and evolve Anime Universe’s R&D vision, protocols, and research priorities
- Build foundational IP in proprietary computation, consensus, cryptography, and symbolic AI
- Prototype next-generation algorithms, entropy models, and self-simulating frameworks
- Oversee development of our compiler, format standards, and zero-dependency tech stacks
- Translate speculative research into scalable tech infrastructure with measurable impact
- Establish rigorous, creative, and async-native R&D methods
- Lead the R&D Core team through vision, thought leadership, and decisive execution
- Recruit, align, and scale a world-class team of engineers, scientists etc.
- 10+ years of experience in high-level research and engineering (CS, AI, cryptography, or systems design)
- Experience leading or co-architecting novel frameworks, languages, or protocols
- Mastery of abstract thinking: symbolic systems, formal logic, game theory, entropy, and cryptographic design
- Proven track record of shipping R&D outcomes into production-grade infrastructure or simulation tools
- Deep knowledge of compiler construction, systems programming, or next-gen AI architectures
- Demonstrated ability to scale and lead elite teams through clarity of vision, technical credibility, and decision-making under complexity
- Visionary mindset with a ruthless execution engine—zero-dependency, originality-first thinking
- Background in narrative computation, simulation AI, or mathematical aesthetics
- Equity (Shares): Founding partner-level equity
- Token-Based Rewards: Future layer pending legal compliance
- Future Salary: Activates with key revenue triggers
- Remote First: Fully distributed team; async-native execution
You will define the technological soul of Anime Universe.
You’ll prototype the code that powers our philosophy—and the systems that outlast time.
You’ll lead R&D not as a support function—but as a source of narrative, structure, and technical awe.
If you’ve been waiting to invent what comes after today’s architecture, this is your moment.
