About the role
- Own the full partnership lifecycle for Hashi integrations: drive post-signing onboarding, technical implementation, launch, and ongoing performance optimization with custodians, Bitcoin wallets, DeFi protocols, liquidity providers, vaults, and lending platforms.
- Coordinate end-to-end execution: align technical roadmaps, resolve integration blockers, and facilitate co-development to enable frictionless Bitcoin collateralization and lending flows on Sui.
- Collaborate with partners to design, launch, and iterate on competitive lending products, including dollar-denominated borrowing at market-leading rates and innovative yield structures incorporating yield-bearing stable instruments.
- Monitor key performance metrics (e.g., TVL, borrowing volume, yield competitiveness, user adoption) and proactively drive enhancements to maintain Sui’s leadership in Bitcoin DeFi.
- Serve as the primary escalation point for partners, aligning internal Mysten Labs teams (engineering, product, ecosystem, legal) to deliver rapid support and iteration.
- Develop joint go-to-market strategies, co-marketing campaigns, and incentive programs to accelerate mutual growth and on-chain liquidity.
- Track portfolio health, report on milestones and impact to leadership, and identify opportunities for deeper collaboration or new deal expansion.
- Stay ahead of Bitcoin ecosystem trends, regulatory shifts, and competitive yield strategies to guide partners and inform Sui’s roadmap.
