#### 🛡️ Shimmy Moderator

**Responsibility. Rewards. Recognition.**

The Shimmy Moderator Programme brings opportunities for those who want to actively support the platform.

**What you'll do:**

* Help regulate community social channels
* Support optimal function of the Shimmy App post-launch
* Assist with moderation and validator requirements

**What you'll get:**

* Token-based incentives
* Linear progression structure
* Real influence on platform development

As a platform that restricts worded interactions, our community social channels need real regulation from dedicated, aligned members. If that's you, there's genuine earning potential here.

#### 👥 Community Manager / Channel Moderator

**Leadership roles with permissions.**

Community managers and channel moderators handle escalated moderation and team responsibilities within Shimmy community channels.

**Requirements:**

* Alignment with Shimmy values
* Active engagement with social channels
* Familiarity with platform principles
* Commitment to keeping the community safe

All roles have clear requirements to prevent harmful activity and maintain a secure environment.

Our incentivised partnership structure for developers working on Shimmy.

**Why join?** We're looking for capable developers and technicians who can bring real value to the project. In return, you'll receive generous rewards—not just during initial development, but long-term.

**This isn't a job. It's alignment.**

We're replacing rigid work arrangements with fluid creative commitments. Where dedicated advocates come together to build something meaningful. Where people find their true purpose.

#### 🐛 Bug / Vulnerability Bounties

**Find problems. Get paid.**
