About the role

  • Advise TradFi integrators on risk management frameworks to help them confidently adopt the Morpho protocol while meeting their regulatory and internal standards.
  • Translate complex DeFi mechanisms (curator behavior, liquidations, on-chain risk) into language and frameworks familiar to traditional finance to accelerate institutional adoption.
  • Execute independent data analysis using SQL, Python, or Dune to answer critical questions from both internal teams and external partners.
  • Build and maintain dashboards and queries that surface key risk metrics to empower decision-making across integration and product teams.
  • Develop deep expertise in Morpho's protocol architecture and risk model to serve as the go-to resource for risk-related questions.
  • Educate DeFi-native colleagues on TradFi conventions and standards to strengthen Morpho's ability to speak the language of institutional clients.
  • Identify data gaps and edge cases in integration scenarios to proactively mitigate risks before they impact integrators or end users.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of TradFi experience in trading, risk management, or quantitative research at a front-office role (large bank, hedge fund, or market maker).
  • Quantitative expertise: Extensive hands-on experience using programming tools (SQL, Python, R, or similar) to answer critical business questions and provide actionable guidance.
  • Crypto experience: Professional experience in DeFi or crypto is ideal; alternatively, deep personal experience is acceptable. You should be able to explain how MEV works at a high level, have used DeFi protocols and self-custody wallets, and ideally have experience with analytics platforms like Dune.
  • Demonstrated ability to manage disagreements about risk assessments and to develop risk frameworks for novel strategies or new instruments.
  • Intermediate to expert-level knowledge in both DeFi and TradFi—ideally expert in one, intermediate in the other. We're not looking for someone who needs to be taught basic concepts from scratch in either domain.
Benefits
  • Expect fair, top-tier compensation
  • Real flexibility
  • Time together in Paris
  • Great health coverage
  • Support to keep learning
