ppThe bMonad Foundation /b is a team of dedicated ecosystem and community builders who are on a mission to massively grow the impact of decentralized tech. We believe that the Monad blockchain—the performant and parallel EVM Layer 1—will help decentralized apps eat the world. /p h3Role /h3 pMonad Foundation, a core contributor to the Monad protocol, is looking for a bHead of DeFi /b to lead the strategy, relationships, and hands-on execution that grows DeFi across the Monad network. This is a player-coach role: you\'ll set the roadmap and get into the weeds, advising builders on protocol design, orchestrating asset onboarding, deploying incentives with discipline, and ensuring the DeFi stack on Monad is robust and capital-efficient. /p pYou should be the person who can explain how any top protocol on DefiLlama makes money, open a Monad-native protocol\'s frontend and produce a sharp assessment of what\'s working and what isn\'t, and then get on a call with a TradFi executive and explain why on-chain yield infrastructure matters. You hold the full DeFi picture in your head, and you turn that knowledge into TVL, volume, and fees. /p h3What You Will Do /h3 ul liOwn DeFi growth strategy for the Monad network. You will prioritize bets across lending, DEXs, stablecoins, RWAs, and yield infrastructure, measured by TVL, volume, stablecoin market cap, RWA market cap, and fees generated. /li liExecute end-to-end asset and protocol onboarding. You will coordinate across oracles, liquidators, DEX pool setup, curators, and bridging providers. /li liAdvise DeFi builders deploying on the Monad network. With high-conviction, you will provide actionable feedback on protocol mechanics, product gaps, and market positioning. /li liActivate your network of whales, liquid funds, curators, and blue-chip DeFi founders to kickstart early liquidity and protocol traction. /li liBridge DeFi and TradFi/Fintech. You will represent the Foundation with senior institutional executives, translating yield generation opportunities (e.g., Morpho vaults on the Monad network) into strategic terms they act on. /li liDrive incentive strategy. You will form and defend opinions on which initiatives attract durable TVL per unit of spend versus which produce mercenary capital. /li liManage a team of 2–3 DeFi specialists. You will set priorities, maintain execution tempo, and build a culture of rigor and bias for action. /li /ul h3Who You Are /h3 ul liDeFi-fluent operator. You have a track record of driving measurable growth in TVL, liquidity, or protocol adoption. You understand value flows across lending (Aave, Morpho, Euler), CDPs, DEXs, and yield-bearing stablecoins — and can explain what each category needs to get right to win. /li liOpinionated on asset quality and risk. You can research a new interest-bearing asset and quickly assess bridging mechanics, liquidity depth, redemption windows, reserve transparency, and issuer controls. /li liDeep, pre-existing network. With a network among whales, liquid crypto-native funds, DeFi curators, and blue-chip protocol founders, you bring the rolodex on day one. /li liExecutive presence. Credible with TradFi/Fintech C-suite; able to make DeFi concepts legible to institutional decision-makers without dumbing them down. /li liStrategic and organized. You see the full DeFi chessboard, prioritize ruthlessly, and know when to move fast versus when to build consensus. /li liProven leadership and management experience. You have run a small, high-output team with clear direction and high trust. /li liEfficient communicator, written and verbal. You distill complexity into clarity without losing nuance. /li /ul h3Nice to Haves /h3 ul liStrong knowledge of trading/markets; able to think in expected value (EV) terms. /li liExperience deploying or managing liquidity across multiple chains. /li liComfort reading Solidity and understanding smart contract risk at a conceptual level. /li liExperience working within a foundation, DAO, or decentralized contributor structure. /li /ul h3Why Work with Us /h3 ul liChallenging problems. You\'ll work on extremely challenging problems with massive impact. /li liHuge opportunity. The Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) standard is ubiquitous, but existing EVM-compatible chains are slow and bandwidth-constrained. Monad\u2019s core innovations offer developers the best of both worlds (portability and performance) and are a game-changer for mass user adoption in crypto. /li liThe right team. You\'ll be part of an exceptional and highly-motivated team /li liCulture. We\'re a lean team working together to achieve very ambitious goals. We are united in our culture of collaboration, low ego, and high-quality output. As an early member of our team, you\'ll help continue to shape our culture. /li /ul /p #J-18808-Ljbffr
