  • Collaborate closely with Treasury, Compliance, and Product teams to design and deliver integrated solutions for institutional and enterprise clients.
  • Monitor industry trends, regulatory changes, and competitor activities to inform partnership and liquidity strategy.
  • Represent the company in discussions with high-level partners, regulators, and key stakeholders.
  • Build and potentially lead a partnerships team as the company scales.

REQUIREMENTS

  • Familiarity with cross-border payments, settlement processes, OTC ecosystems, and liquidity management.
  • Established institutional network in APAC, Middle East, Africa, or Latin America markets is highly preferred.
  • Strong negotiation, stakeholder management, and strategic execution skills.
  • Excellent understanding of compliance, regulatory requirements, and risk management in payment and digital asset sectors.

    • PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

  • Experience working at the intersection of traditional finance and Web3 / stablecoin-powered solutions.
  • Exposure to multi-jurisdictional licensing frameworks and regulatory engagement.
  • Previous experience in scaling liquidity networks or supporting enterprise-grade stablecoin payment solutions.
