Job Level
About the role
- Own protocol growth end-to-end. Build tailored growth plans with DeFi protocols on Monad - collaborating on liquidity incentive and co-incentive campaign structures, identifying missing integrations, and tracking TVL and volume against targets. You're not handing protocols off after they launch; you're accountable for their success.
- Build the RWA x DeFi flywheel. Source and manage relationships with tokenized asset issuers and connect them with the right lending protocols, yield vaults, and stablecoin infrastructure on Monad. Design the looping strategies and collateral structures that make RWAs composable and yield-generating onchain - not just listed.
- Connect the dots across the ecosystem. Identify cross-protocol opportunities that create compounding value - pairing a lending market with a DEX for deeper liquidity loops, or connecting a yield vault with an RWA issuer to expand TVL. You'll see the ecosystem as a system, not a list of individual protocols.
- Bring institutional capital onchain. Work with institutional LPs, asset managers, and capital allocators to identify opportunities to deploy into RWA-backed DeFi products on Monad. You're comfortable in both the DeFi-native and TradFi-adjacent worlds, and can speak credibly to both.
Requirements
- You've spent meaningful time inside DeFi collaborations or ecosystem growth -working with a Layer 1, Layer 2, or major protocol affiliated org - and you have a track record of growing TVL and user activity, not just signing deals
- You've worked with RWA protocols or tokenization platforms before and understand how tokenized assets move from issuance into productive DeFi yield - collateral structures, redemption mechanics, oracle dependencies and all
- You understand how lending markets, AMMs, yield vaults, and liquidity incentives interact - and you can diagnose why a protocol isn't growing and propose concrete solutions to fix it
- You've worked with institutional counterparts - asset managers, family offices, or similar - and know how to get capital comfortable with DeFi-native infrastructure
- You operate with high autonomy, hold yourself accountable to metrics, and treat protocol success as your own.
Benefits
- Challenging problems.
- Huge opportunity.
- The right team.
- Culture.
