  • 1 to 5 years of experience in account management or BD within crypto, DeFi, or digital assets
  • Comfort working with institutional stakeholders such as funds, trading firms, or ecosystem partners
  • Strong communication skills and an interest in helping partners understand the company's products
  • A proactive mindset and ability to work with limited structure
  • Organizational and follow up skills with attention to detail

What You Will Get

  • Competitive salary: 150k to 180k USD
  • Variable bonus based on performance
  • Token component as part of the package
  • A full time engagement with a team that values trust, ownership, and impact
