What You Bring

• 8+ years partnerships or BD at director level in financial services or crypto
• Relationships across institutional crypto infrastructure: custody, prime brokerage, exchanges
• Experience structuring complex multi-party agreements
• Board-level communication and relationship management skills

Benefits

• Health & Prevention: Comprehensive, high-tier medical insurance with a focus on preventative medicine, annual executive health screenings, and diagnostic check-ups.
• Fitness & Wellness Programs: Monthly fitness allowances for premier gyms and studios, plus internal wellness initiatives including yoga, ergonomics workshops, and stress management.
• Competitive Compensation: Salary paid in your choice of fiat, Bitcoin, or stablecoins. ML token allocation and vesting for senior roles.
