Experience with plugin configuration, server management, and handling Minecraft communities is highly important for this role.

This role is not just about administration β€” we are looking for someone who can help shape the long-term vision of Incursio as a growing Minecraft network powered by Athr, including custom systems, platform integrations, and large-scale community features.
